Flo Rida • 9pm
Flo Rida stablished himself as the party king of the late 2000s with global smash hits like the T-Pain-assisted "Low" and the massive club banger "Right Round" featuring Kesha. That success continued when his 2012 album "The Wild Ones" earned him a handful of multi-platinum singles that included the title track (a collaboration with Sia), "Good Feeling" and "Whistle." Flo Rida's dynamic approach of rapped and sung lyrics combined with his larger-than-life personality has allowed him to find success in both rap and pop. In 2022 he collaborated on the single "High Heels" with country music's Walker Hayes. Earlier this year, the five-time Grammy nominee headlined the 2023 Grammy Celebration, the Recording Academy's Official After Party.
