New Music: @BigKRIT – "#12FOR12"

All twelve Big K.R.I.T. #12FOR12 tracks in one place. When your freestyles are better than some peoples’ albums…you know you’re on another level.

The Case FOR Lil’ Dicky

I’m pretty sure I was wrong. So, here I am to discuss how and why. I figure that today is just a good a day as any to discuss this, especially since he’s appearing on the XXL Freshman Cover this year. Almost a year ago, I dropped a piece here detailing my disdain and/or “sadness” […]
