Meanwhile, in the UK, noted urban writer Pete Lewis of the award-winning Blues & Soul stated "Flo Rida finally proves once-and-for-all that he's no one-trick-pony, with the melodic uptempo single 'Sugar' effectively relying on a familiar Euro-dance sample to bring the party". His second single off R.O.O.T.S., “Sugar,” samples Eiffel 65's “Blue (Da Ba Dee).” Flo's Atlantic Records labelmate Wynter Gordon gets her first major feature singing the hook. Rap-Up said, "Hate him or love him, you gotta hand it to Flo Rida for mastering the hit-making formula. However, 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. Billboard magazine reviewed the single positively, said "'Sugar', rides an unlikely interpolation of ' Blue (Da Ba Dee)' by Eiffel 65", but consider it one of the highlights of the album. On reviews for the album, the song received a mixed reception, due to criticism on the use of the sample of " Blue (Da Ba Dee)". This could be good for you.'" Critical reception "It sounded really good when I did it," she told Billboard. She matched the song very well, so we went along with it." Wynter was originally hired by the song's writers as a female vocalist to reference the song for them.

On tracks like 2009's "Right Round," which flips the Dead or Alive classic into a raunchy cut, and 2015's ridiculously catchy tune "My House," Rida displays an otherworldly skill for hook-writing and some serious singing chops. Combining his affinity for pop-rap choruses with his syrupy Southern swagger, Flo Rida quickly became a one-person hit factory. By the early aughts, Rida utilized newfound Cash Money affiliations and a record deal with Poe Boy Entertainment in 2004 to propel his 2008 debut album, Mail On Sunday. But the Carol City, Florida, artist spent the '90s as a member of The GroundHoggz before finding himself under the tutelage of 2 Live Crew member Fresh Kid Ice, where Flo Rida developed a staccato flow that moved from yearning yelp to bellowing growl on a moment's notice. With his career-catalyzing smash, 2007's T-Pain-assisted "Low," Flo Rida―born Tramar Lacel Dillard in 1979―appeared to be an overnight dance-music wizard.
