'Washed-Up' Flo Rida Slammed After Defending Decision to 'Perform for Trump' as Artists Drop Out of Great American State

Flo Rida was flamed online after defending his decision to "perform for Donald Trump" as multiple artists dropped out of the upcoming Great American State Fair concert series.

The "Low" artist, 46, was announced as part of the lineup for the two-week event, which was unveiled earlier this week. The concert series promoted artists like Martina McBride, Young MC, Vanilla Ice, Bret Michaels and more.

The event was organized by Freedom 250, a non-profit linked to President Donald Trump, as part of a nationwide celebration making the 250th anniversary of the Declaration of Independence. The 16-day fair on the National Mall in Washington D.D. is scheduled to run June 25 to July 10.

Several artists have since dropped out of the line-up, claiming that they were unaware that the event had a political affiliation.

Flo Rida. . .One hit. . .Low from a shitty dance movie. One semi-hit in Right Round. Then nothing.
Vanilla Ice. . .one hit. Ice Ice Baby. Back in the early 1990s. And one shitty movie called Cool as Ice.

That's an excellent D list lineup you have there, Donnie Dipshit.

But I'm sure Ted Nugent, Jason Aldean, Kid Rock, and a few other MAGAt book lickers will be there. Can't pass up free publicity, even if it's bad publicity.

Imagine the "Freedom 250" Fest would could have had with a Harris administration? Celebrating our country without bootlicking an orange pedo messiah.

Add Morello and RATM, Rise Against, Public Enemy, Run the Jewels, Rob Zombie, Alanis, Pretty Reckless and imagine the super group that hits the stage from all these musicians doing "Keep on Rockin in the Free World" together.

Instead we have whatever the fuck a Flo Rida is, and a guy that once did a catchy rap and now flips houses on HGTV.
