Scarface Co-Signs Big K.R.I.T.
I love [Big K.R.I.T.]. I can hear a lot of me in K.R.I.T. and K.R.I.T. got the fucking blueprint. He got it. The work that I did didn’t go in vein. A lot of people don’t have the blueprint to go by so they don’t know how to make a record. They don’t know how to make songs and I give all of that to the people that I grew up listening to. I can’t ever see myself falling off because I know what it took to make people like me. I know what makes me fall out of like with people.

Cons (courtesy of The Company Man):- The designation “listening session” is officially a misnomer. Scores of industry types packed into bar or lounge or make-shift bar or lounge with complimentary Hooters wings and Ciroc flowing freely isn’t exactly the ideal set up for some serious audio ingestion. It’s the set up for a party. If the goal is to liquor up a room full of tastemakers so that they’ll tweet about having a good time—even if they could barely sink into the album—mission accomplished. Somewhere Bruce Dickinson is screaming more cowbell listening!
- (In my best Bill Maher octave) New Rule: Just because you’re previewing one the year’s hottest albums crafted by one of the Hip Hop’s hottest artists doesn’t mean the venue needs to be Africa-hot inside. Pump the A/C. Wheel in a fan. Crack a window. Something! Sweating through your school clothes while trying to be too cool for school is the exact opposite of “swag.”
- Stand out tracks like “It’s Cool To Be Southern” and “Porch Lights” embody the best of Big K.R.I.T. He always rep’s his region with integrity, dismembering any southern rapper stereotypes in the process. On shallow “listen,” Live From The Underground fits in with the rest of the Mississippi-emcee’s stellar catalog, even with those few expected panderers crowding the collection. This isn’t a “Con.” It just needed to be said.
- Halfway through Live From The Underground and already the “It’s not as a good as ‘K.R.I.T. Wuz Here’”-word vomit has started dripping through the studio. Worthy albums grow with time. It’s impossible to compare a two-year-old-Great to a kinda-heard-it-in-a-kinda-club. Conjecture for conjecture’s sake is corny and unnecessary. At least let the LP leak before dropping critiques. Hell, at least let it end.
- It should’ve been held in Brooklyn. Everything’s better in Brooklyn.

Pros (courtesy of Andre Grant):- This time K.R.I.T did everyone a favor and had it somewhere with an elevator. A yo! I’ve been to a few that made grown people take the stairs and it never ends well. There’s liquor there for god’s sake! Plus, it was humid as fuck outside like monsoon season in Panama and I didn’t wear my linen shirt. Bad move.
- Word to the wise. Always have the liquor up front. That way, you can separate the drinking from the album listening and make sure you’ve got your audiences full attention. Have you ever seen a liquor situation in the middle of the get down? Not cool. Half the good folks aren’t listening because you’ve got them screaming at beautiful girls pouring drinks. Oh, it’s nice to have beautiful girls pouring drinks.
- That little 3G symbol (or 4G if you’re real fly) makes all the difference at a listening where you’re probably live tweeting, texting, networking and checking in on 4square with 100 other people doing that at the exact same time. So, K.R.I.T saved us the trouble of shooting that ‘I failed you sensei’ after the fact email to Andreas which is totally cool because God Forgives, Andreas doesn’t (Ed. note: He’s right!).
- Man, those chicken wings look good as hell. Yo, Insanul, my bad I ended up killing your chance at wing paradise man. If it makes you feel better, I didn’t get any either. For real y’all, if there’s food get that first. You can get your drinks later.
- Finally, the best reason to go to a listening? You might hear a damn good album. We heard a good one last night. Live From The Underground probably had a little something for everybody so you can credit Def Jam with not making K.R.I.T dumb it down too much and you can thank the Mississippi Messiah (it just sounded better than Masala) for another solid album. We’ll be at the next one K.R.I.T. I’m gonna need y’all to save us some wings though.Mississippi x California x North Carolina
