Double Entendre:

1) His rhymes (bars) got him famous in the hood!

2) Xanax bars got him; they’re controlling the way he feels.

Slab: Slow, Low, And Bangin'

Krizzle cruises through any hood in his whip. He’s extremely proud of his car, but who wouldn’t when it’s this fresh?

Commonly seen throughout the hip-hop community, Krizzle personifies his 9 millimeter pistol by giving it a nickname, Nina. 6 feet under is a common idiom referring to what happens to someone when they die; they get buried.

Seeing as KRIT is a pimp, this could actually be referring to one of his hoes named Nina that will literally kill for him.

KRIT takes his influences from plenty of southern legends, notably rap duo 8-Ball & MJG from Memphis, Tennessee. He bumps their shit in his whip, specifically his multi-CD changer. This was released before the wide-usage of auxiliary cables, of course.

Notice how Krizzle says ‘when’ and not ‘if’: he did get a million. In 2013, according to hiphopnetworth, KRIT was worth over $1.25 million.

Of course with his money he has to get some mandatory pimp attire; alligator-skin loafers.

Young Krizzle is one of KRIT’s nicknames. A lot of rappers just add ‘young’ to their name; it’s a part of hip-hop culture.

The south is often considered second-tier to the other main rap regions of America: The north (New York), and the west (California), therefore being called the third coast. Krizzle wears this title proudly. He reps Mississippi all the time, it’s even tatted on his arm!

KRIT actually never talked about having a job at all. He speaks about selling drugs, pimping women, and even selling beats to put some food in his stomach, but never a taxable job.

Of course, here he’s describing the stereotype of the African American; African American families make on median over $17,000 less than the average of all races.

Strippers give lap dances for money. They come out to perform and go back to the locker with cash in hand because they know someone is going to pay for their services. They don’t care about the customer, they just want your money.

KRIT is saying that if these rappers are just going to come out like corporate robots, they might as well throw in a proverbial lap dance as well. There’s no need for originality when you can follow a trend and make yourself some quick cash.

KRIT doesn’t hold back his feelings in his lyrics, sometimes even having controversial songs such as “Another Naive Individual Glorifying Greed and Encouraging Racism”, but he doesn’t care if it rustles peoples' jimmies. His mother also fears Krizzle may be in danger due to his lyrical content:

Momma say she worried ’cause I rap about the Government

The fucked up position Krizzle speaks of is constantly having an ultimatum until you gain major success: quit rapping and inevitably become a drug dealer, or continue the seemingly-endless road to relevancy as a starving artist and risk losing anything you may have.

KRIT often speaks about the road less traveled, and that’s exactly where he went in the rap game; he kept going hard until he finally made it, while most people end up just going back to their old ways.
