Rapper/producer Justin “Big K.R.I.T.” Scott's music teems with the soulful sounds of his Mississippi childhood in the ‘90s. The Southern rap trailblazers who influenced his drawling delivery and warm, easygoing beats, including Bun B and 8Ball & MJG, have often guested on his tracks. But a flair for personal songwriting and an ability to hang with modern heavyweights like Kendrick Lamar and A$AP Rocky on posse cuts have allowed Big K.R.I.T. to carry the torch for his old-fashioned sound into a new era.
