"Sugar"
Song

"Sugar" is the second single from Flo Rida's sophomore album R.O.O.T.S. It features R&B singer Wynter Gordon. The single was released on March 17, 2009 as a digital download.[2] The song recreates elements from the Eiffel 65 song "Blue (Da Ba Dee)".

Reception

On reviews for the album, the song received a mixed reception, due heavy criticism on "Blue (Da Ba Dee)". Billboard, said "'Sugar,' which rides an unlikely interpolation of 'Blue (Da Ba Dee)' by Eiffel 65", but consider it one of the highlights of the album. The video was filmed on April 10th on South Beach, FL and is due out for release later in April.[3] Allmusic said that the song is "shameless enough to incorporate elements of Eiffel 65's Euro-trash earworm 'Blue (Da Ba Dee)', but chose it as a track pick.[4]

"Sugar" made a "Hot Shot Debut" at #25 on the Billboard Hot 100, making it Flo Rida's highest debut on the chart, it has so far risen to #17. Also in the U.S. it has so far peaked at #20 on the Pop 100, and #16 on the Hot Rap Tracks. In Canada it made a "Hot Shot Debut" at #8 on the Canadian Hot 100.
