What the heck is going on these days! We hear that Flo Rida, real name Tramar Dillard, was promoting his album in Lexington, Kentucky when an eye witness called Animal Control authorities and claimed they saw two men step of Flo Rida’s tour bus and kill a rabbit. Local Police were on a hunt to find Flo Rida to take him in for questioning. Flo spoke x-clusively to allhiphop and denied the whole ordeal. It did sound a bit bogus, don’t you think? “While no one in my party was in any way involved in any incident, the media report that I saw was sickening,” Flo Rida told AllHipHop.com exclusively. “As an animal lover, I would never want to see cruelty inflicted upon them.” Flo’s album R.O.O.T.S comes out March 31st.

Sometimes I think artist deliberately have these bogus stories leaked to stir up controversary in the media to boost up their album sales. Don’t you realize there is always some type of “publicity” stunt before an artist album drops. For example, the Keri Hilson leak to “Turnin’ me on” remix where she was supposedly dissing Beyonce. That whole “beef” went down right before her album dropped which made her relevent.
Hmmmm…

Rumors began to spread on the web earlier this week that rap sensation Flo Rider dropped Chris Brown from his upcoming album R.O.O.T.S because of the alleged violent incident involving Rihanna. However, Flo wanted to clear the air and said it had nothing to do with it.

Flo says “This was way before me ever hearing anything about [Brown allegedly beating Rihanna],” adding, “I had been done with this record.” (more…)
