Flo Rida, whose stage name is a play on words from his native Florida and the term "Flow Rider", made an immediate breakthrough with his debut album "Mail On Sunday" (2008), which climbed to number 4 in the US charts. Flo Rida landed a number 1 hit at the beginning of 2008 with the single "Low" feat. T-Pain. In Germany, the popularity curve of the rapper, who likes to enrich his sound with funk, has been on a steep upward curve since the first album. The albums "R.O.O.T.S. (2009) reached number 21 and "Wild One (2012) even reached number 16. Over the years, Flo Rida has repeatedly made a name for himself through his collaborations with numerous top stars such as Avicii, Jennifer Lopez (on American Idol) and Pitbull. In 2021, the artist, who has repeatedly been celebrated for his spectacular live shows, took part in the Eurovision Song Contest alongside Italian singer Senhit.

With countless hits and tours in over 120 countries, Sean Paul is considered Jamaica's absolute top music export and a global star from the "small island with the big sound". Born under the full name Sean Paul Henriques in Kingston in 1973, the dancehall deejay (as a microphone controller is called in Jamaica) has been conquering the global charts since his breakthrough in the late 90s thanks to hits such as "Gimme The Light", "Get Busy" "No Lie" "Temperature" and "Bring It", is a sought-after collaboration partner for global stars such as Beyoncé and Dua Lipa and has been a celebrated TV star himself since 2022.

With 1.6 million monthly Spotify listeners, almost one million YouTube followers, 8.5 million TikTok fans and over 575 million TikTok likes, Zah1de is one of the most successful female creators in Germany.
