Check It ... Big K​.​R​.​I​.​T & Grillade "Neva Go Back"


A few days back I posted up info on the Yourstru.ly Presents K.R.I.T. Wuz Here (The Grillade Sessions) project. Now check out the first leak. You can also check the back story below. Enjoy.
Big K.R.I.T. wouldn’t be the man he is today without Grandma Linnie. The same woman he recalls cooking something good for his soul in “Neva Go Back” is responsible for one of K.R.I.T.’s critical characteristics: his gumption. It’s this strength, and respect for tradition that separates K.R.I.T. from his peers, and gives his songs that lasting luster.

This version of “Neva Go Back” belongs to K.R.I.T., Miss Linnie and the members of Grillade, who fill it to the brim with their own memories and melodies. Notice the weightless harmony in the hook. That marriage of instruments sounds like it should be celebrating its 20th anniversary, but in reality, KRIT and Grillade vocalist Ragen Fykes met for the first time that day at Different Fur. Proof that time isn’t the only force tying us together. In this case, its a shared passion, mutual admiration, and good old-fashioned gumption. – yourstruly

Yourstru.ly Presents: @BigKRIT Wuz Here (The Grillade Sessions)


Yourstru.ly Presents: Big K.R.I.T. Wuz Here (The Grillade Sessions) from Yours Truly on Vimeo.

You already know I'm a Big K.R.I.T. fan. I'm also a fan of the music created with a live band. Well, it seems that both of those things have come together to create K.R.I.T. Wuz Here (The Grillade Sessions). The EP  takes music from the Mississippi rappers K.R.I.T. Wuz Here project and recreates it with the help of the Bay Area band. Pretty exciting project presented by Yourstru.ly.  Definitely looking forward to it. In the meantime, peep the snippet video above. Chea!
