Facts. 2024 now🙌🏿

[@lasoul680]

Man

[@brandonclark9819]

Hell yea

[@tylergarza7068]

All his songs are slept on . Ppl rather listen to mumble rap migos than someone who spits bars and writes and produces his own music. It’s a shame

[@samtheis7693]

Can’t believe this song wasn’t bigger. Still bumping in 2024!

[@permesworld]

Don't think the sample got cleared?

[@AB317.]

The sample...same reason why it's not on any streaming service

[@John-nd2cl]

Incredible song like all of K.R.I.Ts work!

[@fortyforfree]

I’m guess the sample. Adele holding out

Still here in 2022 and this song still go hard after all these years 🔥‼️

[@Love.hammer999]

Sonq slaps

[@PatinaEdochie]

0:23 🗣”Man this is God-given…all I gotta do is show up” 🙏🏽🤲🏽📍✔️💯 Yesss off the RIP this shii stilllll go hella hard asf and I always loved how he flipped Adele’s “Hometown Glory” which was so unexpected but slaps so hard! I was livin in Wisconsin again when finding out about his music and being that he’s from Mississippi (I partly grew up there and got people there too) I was so geeked cause he hard! He’s an awesome producer, definitelyyy got barz, and we got plentyyy talent comin up outta Mississippi as a whole lowkey (need to be highkey) so very proud of him cause he really put on for us and represented! But anyways that KRIT Wuz Here Mixtape is a classiccc!! 💿🔊🔊🔊🎶🗣0:23 0:32 1:07 1:54 2:25 2:34 2:49💯🎹🥁🔥🔥🔥🔥💪🏽🐐👑 Also proud of and shout out to anybody who made it out of their hometown &/or rose above statistics and harsh circumstances cause if anything like Mississippi if you can make it there or OUT of there you can make it anywhere! 💪🏽💯 In some cases yo city held and hold you down and see/saw you as inspiration to do the same and you represent, put on and bless yo city and the people in it…OR it could be where other people from yo hometown was/is on some crabs in a barrel type shii or a lil of both especially if “different”, ahead of your time or a visionary but rejected by yo own people no matter how much you love and represent for yo city…so in that case they can’t get mad if originally God was tryin to use you as one of the ones to bless them or yo city like you originally was supposed too but they shunned, rejected you etc and only wanna claim you or support you after people OUTSIDE where you from show love when you been on that same shii back then they made fun of you for back when tryin to put people on wit you. So if you don’t fuq wit them it’s cause really they weren’t fuqin wit you it ain’t you “changed” or think you too good naw..I had to rep ME and rock solo dolo before I’m just doin the same and decided to stop givin so many fuqs cause God don’t call certain people and situations “blessing blockers” for a reason…yo blessings can be delayed tryin to carry people wit you who takin bricks out yo foundation as you building your and if you stay generous with them God knows you’ll be giving all yo blessings to people who don’t deserve it when it could go towards people and causes you need to bless and if you kept holding on to them you would’ve never made it to the next level smh 💯

[@guswalker4091]

Still here Nov 2024

[@falconpunch8014]

BUMPING IN 2024. When I met Krit in Cleveland at a concert, I brought this song up as a big inspiration of mine and he was impressed I even knew this song existed. Mississippi Legend 👑

[@AerialPenn]

That's crazy. This is the krit song. This and dreaming off the next project. I'm amazed creative control did this video. They did so many classics this was truly a special era.

[@skroogemcducc]

Was that when he was at grog shop, hob, or beachland? I never miss krizzle when he in the land!

[@adrianfreemont3960]

[@cesarlugo1417]

Yess.finaly someone Agree with me🫡😎

[@djsouthpaw832]

100% and Friday Night Lights is one of my favorite books/movies so the irony of what he’s talking about against the backdrop of the video nails it.

[@hootiehootheblowphish4109]

I actually heard of Big KRIT before I heard of Adele because of this song. I remember seeing an interview with KRIT saying they sampled "this soul singer from England named Adele" or something like that. I looked her up and then a little while later her career took off over here in the U.S. I love this song!

[@aerialpenn8849]

Same here. That's how I first heard of Adele. I have a couple of her albums but still never listened to any of her songs.

[@klusterquack6742]

This is hits the same way it did when I first listened to Krit.

[@Zanobeats]

4 real !!

[@jon9230]

Mr too. I hust started to diciover his greatmess back in like 2010 and that song still kills. With they would have made the collab video with yellawolf because he spits his verse in that feature better than anything else I've gesrx come out of his mouth
