KRIT sets about listing some reasons he believes hasn’t been getting the shine he deserves

  • Major magazines have still not realized how great a musician KRIT is

  • These magazines are unwilling to advertise KRIT’s brand of soulful, conscious music. They would rather put on the more ‘ignant’ rappers that seem to dominate the South.

  • Or maybe his music is simply too deep for most people to understand. They would rather listen to catchy hooks and oversimplified lyrics than Krizzle’s honest lyricism

KRIT is also quoting Ice Cube’s dramatic monologue at the end of film Boyz N The Hood.

While KRIT is usually a humble person, he does not think it should be seen as a negative thing to be proud of one’s accomplishments. After all, KRIT’s worked hard to get to the position he’s in.

As Jay Z would say

Wait, tell them rumble young man rumble
Try to dim your lights tell you be humble

KRIT is a king in the rap game, whose haters cannot deal with the fact that he has become a successful musician; they stay throwing rocks at the throne Krizzle is on. But he doesn’t need their approval to be sure of his accomplishments in the game.

KRIT’s got his bass playing loud enough to seriously mess with your face.

So much bass when I pop my tape,
Can’t feel my face

The John Travolta reference effects some wordplay with the 1997 Travolta-starrer Face/Off

The Travolta reference also extends even further, as Vincent Vega, Travolta’s character in Pulp Fiction, is a hitman (who therefore would literally blow peoples' face off for a living), and in the film does so (albeit unitentionally) in a famous scene (which drives a good third of the movie’s plot).

This song gets me like

So fucking hype. El Producto and Killer Mike absolutely murder it and demand your attention, or they’re gonna grab you by the ear and make you listen. Big Boi comes and drops a bomb-ass verse to finish up. Spectacular

Check it!

Favorite song off Magna Carta Holy Grail tbh (tho I fucked with the album more than most of the guys here on RG). Beat is great, LOVE Jay’s imagery on here (Timbaland doesn’t get it tho) ,

and Frank Oceans delivers an absolutely gawdly hook.

I’m anti-Santa Maria
Only Christopher we acknowledge is Wallace

is one of the quotables of the year
