About This Track
“Right Round” is Flo Rida’s first single from his second studio album, R.O.O.T.S. The song was released for airplay on January 20, 2009, and reached number one in the United States, Canada, Australia, Ireland, and the UK. It is heavily based around Dead or Alive’s 1985 single “You Spin Me Round (Like a Record)”.
Flo Rida’s A&R at Atlantic Records brought the beat for “Right Round” to Flo Rida’s attention. They went to the studio to experiment, and matched the song to the “You Spin Me Round (Like a Record)” theme. DJ and audio mixer Dr. Luke provided the Dead or Alive sample. He produced the track and Flo Rida recorded his vocals onto it.
Following the release of the album, mixed reviews came to the song. Allmusic, while calling the song a “horribly infectious single created by producer Doctor Luke”, chose it as a track pick for the album. HipHopDx criticized the feature guest, Ke$ha, but praised the song, “The lead single “Right Round” features newcomer Ke$ha, and while the sample works perfectly, a simple substitution of Keri Hilson would have given this song more leverage.”
Meanwhile, in the UK noted urban writer Pete Lewis of ‘Blues & Soul’ stated “Flo Rida finally proves he’s no one-trick-pony, with the uptempo track ‘Right Round’ effectively relying on a familiar Euro-dance sample to bring the party”.
However Alex Fletcher of Digital Spy gave the song two stars out of five and wrote, “It’s pretty difficult to ruin a pop classic, but Flo Rida gives it a pretty good stab here”.
