Quote from: 13th Duke on December 04, 2011, 04:26:13 AMI have to admit, of all the artists that have been hyped this year and last year, I think if you fast forward 10 years Big K.R.I.T is one of the rare ones that I can see that will have his recent albums still being played. A lot of new rap music is based on trends (well, of the music that is hyped and covered to the nth degree online) but Big KRIT's albums seem to already have a timeless quality. I suppose time will tell on that one. Either way, the guy has a bright future. My only gripe is that the guy has released two great albums, then he's finally got on and his next LP for 2012 is being hyped...and the first single he chooses for the album on which he should blow up big time is a fucking song about booty and strip clubs. Just didn't seem to fit with his overall persona thus far that he'd push 'Money On The Floor' forward first. Mind you, it DOES have 8Ball & MJG on it and the song is still good, so its only a minor gripe. That's all Def Jam for ya. K.R.I.T. is dropping another free tape (might as well call it an album) and I'm sure that will have everything you're looking for.As long as they're dropping the shit the fanbase wants, I can really care what Def Jam makes him do on their dime.And timeless is correct - his shit goes and I think any kind of fan can get into it.
