NEW YORK (CNN) -- Flo Rida wants you to call him. Flo Rida's latest single, "Right Round," was No. 1 on Billboard's pop chart for 10 weeks. In an attempt to reach his fan base on a more intimate level, the Floridian rapper has made his personal cell phone number public. "If they can go out and buy my albums, I can at least make the sacrifice to holler at the few people who call," he says. "A lot of times I'm busy so they'll get my voice mail. And if I can speak to them and I have time, I always text back. Because I think that's very important."
