Flo Rida is enjoying a sweet week on the Billboard Hot 100 despite being accused of animal cruelty.

According to Nielsen Soundscan, Flo Rida's blazing single "Right Round" is holding on to the no.1 spot while his second single "Suga" featuring Wynter, has debuted at No. 25 on the Hot 100.

"Suga," which sold 78,000 digital tracks last week and quadrupled its airplay audience, is the third single to chart from FloRida's upcoming Mar. 31 album, "R.O.O.T.S.".

In related news, Flo Rida is slamming reports that he'd been involved in killing a rabbit on tour.

Speaking with All Hip Hop, Flo Rida said "While no one in my party was in any way involved in any incident, the media report that I saw was sickening."

"As an animal lover, I would never want to see cruelty inflicted upon them".

A report issued earlier this week indicated that Kentucky Animal Control, local police and State Police were seeking to question Flo Rida and his entourage after an eye witness called local Animal Control authorities claiming they'd seen two men step off of Flo Rida's tour bus and kill a rabbit.
