Big K.R.I.T. started to make noise in the rap game as a part of the DD172 movement with the likes of Curren$y, Stalley, Wiz Khalifa and others. The Mississippi native brings his own lyrical style and swagger to Southern Rap and also produces all of his own tracks.
He's been a busy man in 2011 already releasing a collaborative EP with San Francisco based R&B band Grillade and an entirely self-produced mixtape entitled Return of 4Eva. He recently signed a deal with Def Jam records and is already being touted as the successor to Southern Rap legends like Outkast and UGK.
Check out the song "Hometown Hero" from The 'Wuz Here' Sessions EP with Grillade.
The Return of 4Eva mixtape is available as a free download here.
The 'Wuz Here Sessions EP can be purchased here.
Caught a little bit of him live the 2nd night I saw Girl Talk. He was awesome then, but I never got around to checkin him out. I do have a song called "Moon and Stars (Remix)" with him, Killa Kyleon, and Curren$y and needless to say thats a hot track. Gonna have to download this mixtape.
