Why isn't Big K.R.I.T. mentioned with Kendrick, Cole, and Drake of this era?

[Whips-n-Chains]

Go outside and see how many people you can get to name 3 Big K.R.I.T. songs.

See if anyone even knows his name

 

[Cynic]

Is it cause he's from the south (which Cole is too really) and has southern sounding music?

He’s less known than Wale, Wiz, Big Sean, Tyler and Travis Scott and Don Toliver

 

[Taadow]

I don’t know any Big K.R.I.T. songs.

and I love Country Rappin’.


I think he made a song with Ball & MJG I heard that sounded alright, doe…I don’t remember the name


I couldn’t even tell you what the letters in his name stand for.

I know nothing about the man.

His debut was a fumble.

mixtapes were very good ..album didn’t live up.

kendrick and drake shyt was undeniable

sean,wale and wiz had HITS

cole was shaky but he had a lane to himself and had lights please

curren$y like Cole had a lane to himself,mastered it and just did him

Tyler was that weird nikka but kept showing flashes that he was going to be a star and eventually just took off..he also had a lane and a dedicated fan base


Krit just didn’t have it….none of it

and I was a krit fan

 

[CarltonJunior]

No mainstream appeal


Krit is quietly retired right now as well. Hell put out an album out the blue from time to time but hes accomplished all that he will at this point

KRIT is personally one of my favorites ever. In my top 10 but what’s been said in here sums it up. Being too county, no hit records and lack of label support did him in. His quality of work is right up there or higher than some of his peers though

That ep he dropped last year got me thinking unfortunately even the quality is damn near gone

 

[FukkaPaidEmail]

It’s cause he doesn’t belong in that conversation. He’s in the Curren$y conversation.

No he not.

 

[CarltonJunior]

He didn't get a cosign

Kendrick(Dre)
Cole(Hov)
Drake(Wayne)

Bun really was KRITs, and buns cosign means nothing to the mainstream.

Maybe if pimp c was alive

Big Krit, despite having one of the biggest labels Def Jam backing him, bro struggled to get going. Hell he was even on the XXL Freshman cover back when it actually meant something. Dude just isn’t that interesting to the masses. It’s a few songs and projects of his that are cool. I hardly hear anyone mention him when it comes to rappers who pop off in the 2010’s

[spliz]

No he not.

Yes he is. Underground king.

 

[Jaguar93]

I love Spitta but don’t even play with me like that. KRIT a GOAT. Curren$y couldn’t make this

Krit is most definitely a better rapper than Spitta. But Spitta built his own lane and is successful in it.

 

[BigMan]

You KRIT Stan’s been making this thread for at least ten years now give it up your boy is not that popular

The music hes making at this point of his career is just personal projects hes doing in his spare time. The hunger is gone

 

[MajesticLion]

what’s good for "hip-hop" may not be good for my soul
so I keep flexin', wreckin', for the people that respect it
check it...fukk your "Control"



That's why.
