Big K.R.I.T, if you're reading this, we need more music from you this year. After teasing us with one of the best tracks of all time on Mass Appeal's Rhythm Roulette, the Mississippi native is back at it again with the self produced "So Bad." In it, we get a glimpse of what made King so successful: his relentless work ethic and dedication to the game. Instead of just dreaming about it, he's put in work time and time again and reaped the rewards of his efforts. While his rapping perfectly describes the hunger of wanting to make it, it's the soulful beat that makes the track so captivating. "Bad" begins as a bright, high-pitched banger that has hints of early Kanye West production, but transforms into a smooth, subdued cut that comes through during the last third of the track. Peep the track down below and keep those fingers crossed for some new heat from K.R.I.T. It's tracks like these that prove he's a hard act to follow.
