Big K.R.I.T - They Got Us
Artist: Big K.R.I.T
Producer: Big K.R.I.T.
Album: K.R.I.T. Wuz Here
Label: Cinematic Music Group/Def Jam
Even though he’s released Booth approved tracks like 2000 & Beyond, No Wheaties and a nearly flawless DJBooth freestyle, I still feel like folks are sleeping on Mississippi hometown hero Big K.R.I.T. Anyone still napping can just consider K.R.I.T.’s new leak They Got Us an alarm clock. While K.R.I.T. definitely deserves credit for crafting the track’s slowly winding, deeply soulful beat, it’s his work on the mic that truly sets They Got Us apart. We knew the man could flow, but here he really showcases his storytelling skills, following the lives of three people on the verge of losing it all with vivid detail and gripping emotion. In other words, this is the kind of lyrical performance that should place him among rap’s elite up-and-comers. Or am I going too far? As always the Booth will set me straight if I am. Either way, I know I’m not the only one who’s geeked for the release of Krit’s new project K.R.I.T. Wuz Here, hitting eyes and ears everywhere on May 3. Mark your calendars.

For the last year or so (give or take a few months) I have been consistently disappointed with the majority of southern emcees we'd previously featured at DJBooth.net. With the exception of a few talented cats from Atlanta, everything just sounded so stale. Void of creativity and life. Then came Big K.R.I.T into my life (and stereo) and it all changed.
Big things await one of the nicest newcomers on the mic in a hot minute.

Big Krit has that country soul that i havn't heard since ugk or outkast. This song is dope, Krit knows the art of storytelling and that beat makes it a banger.

One thing I like about K.R.I.T is he spits on music that many other rappers out there would just try and fail. I feel I should be hearing K.Sparks on this track too :p Very impressed with K.R.I.T on the track, he holds his ground and keeps me chilled and head noddin from start to finish.

I love the opining drum beat. That 10 second drum beat I have used in one of my mixes. The overall song is just ok there is nothing that impressed me too much. The lyrics were just ok and the beat was hard to hear.
