A genuine Southern gentleman, Big K.R.I.T's humility is refreshing amongst the abundance of I'm-the-best-rapper-alive types. His critically acclaimed mixtape, K.R.I.T Wuz Here, caught the ears of the rap world and earned him comparisons to Southern O.G rappers like UGK and Outkast. Pound talked to K.R.I.T. at the peak of his buzz—right after the release of his most recent mixtape, The Returnof4eva, and getting the coveted XXL Freshmen cover—about being a granny's boy, the revival of traditional Southern rap, meeting weirdo-journalist-extrordinaire- Nardwuar and more.
