Has The King Gone Astray?: An SOTBMusic Review of ‘K.R.I.T. IZ HERE’
When you drop a classic (or a work of art), fans and detractors alike await your next moves like a hawk. For Big K.R.I.T., after 4Eva is a Mighty Long Time, we saw a quiet period then spurts of work. It almost felt like he was reminding us that he was around because, well, forever is […]

Drizzle, Speed, and Gingawd talk Logic and Big K.R.I.T., two artists who–while they arose around the same time–are on different spectrums at this point. Let’s discuss.

As we know by now, SpeedontheBeat.com is home for underrated/under-appreciated art. Sure, we cover the mainstream, but musically, I’ve made my name by covering artists people haven’t heard of as often and helping to bring their message to my readership and those who appreciate tasty jams.

I told you yesterday that I’m not doing a real review for DROGAS Light. Just go buy the album or stream it. Either way, you need this album in your lives. It’s like Lupe took the concept of “Dumb It Down,” added in some TPAB-like messages and imagery, mixed in some trap sensibilities, got “lit […]
