Flo Rida

Flo Rida has been around rap for a while so it's no surprise that he's gotten better and better over the years – but what really impresses me about his live performances is the fact that he really engages with the audience and makes them feel welcome from the very moment he enters the stage.

It kind of makes me sad that many people know of his songs because they have heard them around, but they don't actually know him because they don't make that connection. But if you get tickets to one of his shows, you'll never forget him – when everything is said and done people will always remember his performances.

While the venues Flo Rida plays tend to be rather large these days, he creates a closeness between him and us in the audience: you'll feel like you're really close to him. Whether it's when he asks us to jump or dance in a certain way once the song hits a certain point, or by asking the audience directly after each song finishes which song they would like to hear him perform next by gauging how loudly they cheer when he asks. He goes to great lengths when performing to make sure that the audience knows he is actually singing (not just lip-syncing) over the music by changing not only his pitch, but his timing to the song, so that when he plays "I Get A Good feeling" it's not like just listening to the recording.

He's great at suddenly changing the mood of a show, and there are some light-hearted moments like when he brings on a whistle as a prop when playing "Blow My Whistle"! It's hard to explain how much he makes his shows fit to the fans in the crowd – like getting us to sing certain parts of a song, or asking direct questions and getting us to cheer "yes" or "no", and then using this information to segue into another song that is related to the question so as to ensure that the audience feels a part of the performance and what is happening in it.

Flo Rida isn't just another rap act, his shows aren't just another rap show. Every show is different, and the only way you can really experience that is to go and see him for yourself.

American rapper and producer Tramar Lacel Dillard better known by his stage name Flo Rida has become a household name in recent years following a string of commercially successful singles. The man himself has gained a large following for his easy listening and recognisable music that sits somewhere between pop and dance with rap also often included by Flo.

His live show relies heavily on the show element, with visual interludes being included throughout and an accompaniment of dancers, DJs and hype-men. They all perform well and hype the crowd for hits including 'Good Feeling' and 'Whistle'. Tramar rarely remains stationery throughout the evening as he moves around the stage making sure every single audience member is having a really great time. By the finale of his collaboration with Sia, 'Wild Ones' Flo Rida has proven he is well and truly an entertainer and still cares about his live show now made up exclusively of hits. He has saved perhaps his most recognisable track for an encore, 'Low' has a far more hiphop influence and it is the first time that Dillard demonstrates his freestyle abilities whilst the whole crowd gets low beneath the stage.

I saw Flo Rida perform at the O2 arena, in front of thousands of screaming fans. The large venue and crowd size perfectly suited Flo Rida, as his music is so catchy and fun that it can easily entertain a roaring mass. Flo Rida dominated the stage, and really brought the party. He had the oddest microphone, in the shape of a horn, that the crowd just went crazy for. At one point during his performance he even jumped down from the stage into the audience, a move that was met with rapturous applause and ear shattering screams. I had a standing ticket, which allowed for optimum dancing space. The entire crowd was dancing and singing along to Flo Rida’s tunes, all of which were classics of his. Flo Rida sang ‘Good Feeling’, ‘Right Round’, ‘Whistle’, ‘Wild Ones’, ‘Club Can’t Handle Me’ and ‘Jump’, all of which received a great crowd reaction. The greatest thing about the concert was the fact that everyone knew all of the songs that were performed. When the track for ‘Low’ came on, the crowd went absolutely ballistic and the energy was just fantastic.

Long awaited and booked months in advance but the concert was postponed with no new date as yet, sadly!! We hope that it will not be too long before a new date for the German leg of the tour is announced. Looking forward to it when and if it happens. Wh

Great show.
High-powered energy and good music.
Came through the crowd and interacted with everyone.
