As a teenager, Dillard worked with local rap group 2 Live Crew and formed his own amateur group with some friends called the sugar hill gang.
His work with 2 Live Crew member Fresh Kid Ice attracted attention of DeVante Swing, a member of the band Jodeci.
However, he was rejected by several of the major labels, so he sought many other jobs outside of music.

Flo Rida justified dropping out of college by pursuing a music career
He returned to his home state of Florida to continue pursuing his music career after receiving a phone call from a representative of the independent label Poe Boy Entertainment.
Dillard signed with Poe Boy in 2007, and began affiliating himself with other Florida rappers, such as Rick Ross, Trina, T-Pain and Trick Daddy.
A promotional street single entitled "Birthday", featuring Rick Ross, was his first significant release.
He would make his mainstream debut with the song "B*tch I’m from Dade County" on DJ Khaled’s album We the Best, which also had Trick Daddy, Trina, Rick Ross, Brisco, C-Ride, and Dre.
个人简介
来自美国佛罗里达的Hip-Hop新人Flo Rida与T-Pain合作的那首大人气单曲《Low》在Billboard单曲排行榜上足足做了10周的冠军。在iTunes单曲下载排行榜上也至少做了8周左右的冠军。而且这首《Low》还是美国刚刚上映的一部很火的电影《Step Up 2: The Streets》(《舞出我人生2: 街舞狂潮》)的第一主打歌。作为一个新人的第一首歌就能取得这样的成绩,这真是不能不让人佩服。接下来的第二支单曲与Timbaland合作的《Elevator》虽然没有像《Low》取得那么辉煌的成绩,但是依然很受人们的欢迎。Flo-Rida也是趁热发表了个人的首张大碟《Mail On Sunday》,专辑里一共14首歌中有9首都是和别 人合作的,看看这些feating的对象真是很豪华的阵容啊。相信这张专辑发行后会续写《Low》的奇迹.Flo Rida首张个人专辑《Mail on Sunday》在发行后立即跃升Billboard排行榜专辑销量第四名,并且其中的单曲在Billboard单曲榜上也有不错的成绩。
其中主打歌《IN THE AYER歌曲 常在各大夜店播放
今年一月,Flo-RIda 发行了一首单曲-Right Round. 至今为止(3.15)在Itunes下载榜和Billboard排行榜都稳坐第一,势不可挡。
新单曲《Right Round》正以不可阻挡之攻占据着美国Billboard Hot 100单曲榜的冠军位置,Flo Rida近日又推出了一首全新单曲以飨歌迷。Flo Rida在这首被命名为《Sugar》的单曲中与WynterGordon合作,为我们带来的是一首像糖一样甜的单曲。FloRida在这首歌中再次玩起了取样的把戏,而这次取材则来自于意大利的舞曲三人组Eiffel 65的大热单曲《Blue》。而FloRida则像往常一样,为这次的取样注入了新鲜的元素,这首歌将毫无疑问会成为他的下一首冠军单曲。
据悉,《Sugar》将会被收录在FloRida在2009年3月31日推出的全新专辑《R.O.O.T.S》内。对于这张专辑的创意,Flo Rida表示,专辑名是“战胜困难的道路(RouteOf Overcoming TheStruggle)”的首字母缩写,取这样的专辑名目的是为了勉励自己,现在的成功并不是一夜之间所取得的,必须谨记自己一路以来所付出的努力。
