Big K.R.I.T. "4Eva Is A Mighty Long Time" (10/27)

[Stew]

Gotta chance to get through it a few times on the plane this weekend. I dont really have any complaints about the album, I could deal without "1999" but other than that its well put together and flows well on both disc. Some bangers, some deep joints, you could tell he put some time into this joint. Easily at least 4.5 mics.

I get to play it in the woofers this week

Drinking sessions damn near bring me to tears when I listen to it. You can tell bro had some shit to get off his chest. Music that touch your soul right there.

“Shit so fucked up cuz they don’t talk about Christ, everybody trying to die young But who gone talk about life?”

KRIT the goat man fuck who don’t like it!!!!

 

[TonyDubbz]

I'm right down the street from where j cole grew up not even an hour but i dont fuck with his music as much as i do KRIT. His shit don't speak to me like Krizzles do.

My grandma live out that way in lumberton and cole used to always hit up my school when I was out there at A&T for shows. I like Cole’s music, but my man Krit on another level

If you feel like that you need to listen to the vent you'll feel some type of way afterwards.

For your listening pleasure

Its hard to sleep, living life in a daze

When kings wanna be niggas, I hope its a phase

And queens down to be hoes as long as it pays

Chained to our oppressor, I'm knowin we slaves

Now who wanna be saved

Real shit

Bruh when he came to DC a couple years back and did this live...he did it pretty much acapella and that was a powerful ass performance. Had the whole crowd singing word for word and you could see some people did have tears in their eyes

 

[KnowReasonForPeace]

I love to see artists I been rocking with from the beginning make it and continue to put out dope music Shit is beautiful

This KRIT best album imo.

Think I might like his introspection better than his ignorant shit and I LOVE ignorance lol.

He has a way of saying shit that's relatable but equally profound. Its not a lot of artists who have mastered being that subtle yet impactful and that's what being lyrical is all about to me.

Idgaf about how many big words you can put together or how fast you can say it. What are you really saying? Can you reach somebody with your words?

I ain't promoting no violence but people out here been wilding/

So much so you can get gunned down for just being happy and smiling

God on my line after all but I didn't pick up when He called

Matter I didn't pick up at all cuz my bills paid now

Said grace now lights is still on why would i pray now?

That is some real shit!

And this is what some people miss when discussing lyricism. Krit actually spoke on this in an interview he did a couple days ago. He can do all the punchlines and metaphors. That's why he made Mt. Olympus...but can you actually make people feel your music? Take the words in and have it mean something? That's an often underrated part of judging somebody's lyrical ability

This is what 2pac gets slandered for. Because people feel and relate to his music more than him being super lyrical. Shit crazy.

 

[KnowReasonForPeace]

Exactly

That why Scarface so dope too

Music for your soul >> "lyrical miracle" rappers

I wouldnt go that far cause i listen to lyrical miracle niggas more than anything but this album just has high replay value and music for everyone. Two things to consider when rating a album as a classic or not.

 

[KamPushMe]

Am I’m the only one that finds the “ive been basing all night long” line hilarious

Oh I know all about the vent that’s actually my favorite song from him. Literally told my ol lady to shut the hell up when it played on my playlist last week!

That sounds like an amazing scene and experience brah. That song is absolutely perfect.

 

[natural born sinners]

I wonder what was going on during the making of "the vent" that shit like it was directly inspired by one of those life altering moments

 

[KnowReasonForPeace]

So the album of the year thread will be full of insight whenever it drops. Cant wait
