Big K.R.I.T. has been on Def Jam for nearly two years, but fans are still waiting for his official major label debut.
Now, as the Mississippi native’s Live From the Underground approaches its June 5 drop date, he recalls how the album might not have ever seen the light of day.
“I didn’t have the bread to pay my bills or really even feed myself,'” said K.R.I.T. to Billboard.com about his move to Atlanta in 2009 to pursue music. “I felt it might be time for me to focus on something a little more secure.”
K.R.I.T. received an offer to work with independent label Cinematic Music Group for six months, however, which led to the song “Hometown Hero” 
and later the mixtape K.R.I.T. Wuz Here. A month after the heralded mixtape dropped, K.R.I.T. found a home on Def Jam.
Now, K.R.I.T. awaits his album’s release, finally getting used to the workings of a major label. “It was about learning more of the business versus just being radical,” he explained. “When you get to see how the anticipation builds up until the point when an album comes out, it makes sense.”
I still stand by the fact that Lil Romeo spits better than krit
Troll.
dont feed the trolls.
Big Krit is representing well in the rap game, Mississippi stand up..#RealTalent
He should of quit cuz his music sucks donkey dick.
let me guess…..you listen to “future” ?
He probably listens to Waka and Gucci also.
fucking bastard listins to all that gay trap music or is a ymcmb dick head.
The fact that his he entered his name as “swag” voids his comment. Suck a dick. Krizzle is real hip-hop
I wanna Bumfuck your Daughter in the Ass
Better than 99% these lil peon bitches lol
This isn’t news. Krit has said this since he dropped Wuz Here. He said if that shit didn’t pop off like it did he was gonna call it quits. This story like 3 years old.
I can’t help but think that this album isn’t gonna live up to the quality of his tapes, especially Returnof4eva which is one of the best southern projects of the last decade in my opinion.
krits worst material still sounds better than 99% of the shit he you hear on the radion and other outlets
