Big K.R.I.T. released his first official album (following a number of mixtapes), Live From the Underground, earlier this year via Def Jam. It’s a solid album and continues to prove that K.R.I.T. is one of the most consistent rappers (and producers) in today’s game but, like his other recent mixtapes, it lacks a standout single like “Country Shit.” He recently made a video for album track, “What U Mean” (featuring Ludacris), which you can watch below.

K.R.I.T. is currently on a tour supporting the album, which hits NYC on September 20 at Irving Plaza with Slim Thug. Tickets for the NYC show are on sale now.

A list of all dates and the video are below.
