I figured since Sugar is on it's way down, and this was the most obvious single choice, it would be ok to open this thread. Feel free to lock this if it isn't confirmation enough.

Wow, I had NO idea Sugar was peaking already. Could get a second wind though. Love this song and I think it will be huge.

If Sugar is done, I'm very surprised it didn't go at least top 10 on CHR. I actually think Be On You is a better single choice than this, even though I love Nelly. I think the hook on this is very weak, and if Sugar can't go top ten, I don't know how this can go much past top 30. One of my rhythmic stations is already playing Be On You.

He def needs a different sound on the radio. That's 4 straight radio hits in a year that were basically all power Pop. But that's what makes Flo Rida so successful at this time. A R&B type track might slow his roll and end the era early. Jump might be the better choice for the summer after all, and maybe end it with the Ne-Yo collab.

This will be the song of the summer. It could be, but I'm a bit skeptical at the same time. Flo Rida's follow up singles just can't seem to keep the momentum going from his first huge single's (Elevator flopped and In The Ayer, though doing a bit better, still missed the top 10 on CHR). Hopefully wth Nelly though this will be a big hit.

^ A horrible song, and yeah I agree. Not the kind of exposure Nelly needs before a return. =/

like Nelly is a staple on pop radio. she cannot save this lol Her collaboration with James Morrison on "Broken Strings" apparently did not help over on Hot AC either. It peaked in the Top 40 but not enough to earn airplay on any of the weekend countdown shows. It is performing slightly better in Canada but I doubt it will hit Top 20 on Hot AC. Perhaps it will do much better on AC.

^Well, it says she won't be in the video...so maybe its a sign that she knows too. I'm still shocked at how poorly "Sugar" did on CHR, must have been the sample because the pre-chorus is, like, the catchiest thing ever.

Not impressed on first listen. Bad exposure for Nelly. I don't think it will do much.

I thought Be On You would be the obvious choice. I don't like this that much.

This song isn't good for radio imo. There's nothing that really grabs you.

This is the theme song to Disney's new movie, G-Force, you know, the one with the guinea pig secret agents.
Good thing Sugar did not become huge like Right Round. I loved the smartly used sample in Right Round, but the Sugar sample is terrible.
Right now, according to quick cut: Aud: 0.123 Spins: 57 {Pop: 52; Rhy: 5} All increases except the audience, which fell .011.

I don't understand why everyone hates this song. I didnt expect that at all.
IMO, this is one of the standout songs on his album. Be On You needs to be released in the Fall, not Summer.
Anyways, this sounds like a Summer SMASH, and its already getting promotion from the G-Force movie. This song sounds really great when its played really loud. I can see all the youth jamming this joint.

^ Flo Rida seems to like the spotlight on him most of the time. He didn't let Kesha or Wynter have their own verses on their singles so it was expected. The only exception is Be On You where Ne-Yo sings alot, maybe he doesn't like a huge Female presence.
