A Southern hip-hop voice who builds his catalog close to the roots.
For a quick sense of his style, try 'Time Machine' or 'The Vent'. They frame his sound plainly.
He came up listening to UGK and OutKast, and that influence shows in his music. His mixtape 'K.R.I.T. Wuz Here' got attention in 2009 with its soulful production and lyrics grounded in Southern life. Songs like 'Time Machine' and 'The Vent' reflect that perspective without much fuss.
After signing with Def Jam and releasing 'Live from the Underground' in 2011, he left the label in 2013 to start his own, Multi Alumni. He's kept releasing music independently, including the album '4eva Is a Mighty Long Time' in 2017.
Keep it compact: a lyric you come back to, a live memory, or the part of the catalog you would point someone toward first.
