Big K.R.I.T. has started off the year in a huge way with the announcement of his next mixtape “K.R.I.T.” in the works as well as his next solo album. He also stands out in the huge posse track of “1 Train,” an impressive feat with the likes of Kendrick Lamar, A$AP Rocky, Action Bronson, Joey Bada$$, and Yelawolf all throwing impressive bars into the mix. This week Big K.R.I.T. is featured on #MyTop5 and we take a look into the Mississippi Rapper’s top 5 movies.
1. There Will Be Blood (2007) – K.R.I.T. cites this movie as a favorite and a film that is “solely about greed.” The project garnered countless awards including 2 Oscars as well as appearing on numerous Top 10 year end lists.
2. Friday Night Lights (2004) – Finding some common ground with his next pick, K.R.I.T. understands the ups and downs of following your dreams. “Based off the emotion and just understanding what its like to feel like you’re following your dreams and everything is going good, and something happens that makes you have to start over.”
3. No Country for Old Men (2007) – “It’s an amazing movie. It’s just a raw movie about an assassination, its crazy.” K.R.I.T. adds another critically acclaimed project on his list.
4. Malcolm X (1992) – “That’s a no brainer.”
5. Lincoln (2012) – Big K.R.I.T. wraps up his Top 5 with the historical drama. “That’s a great movie. A lot of people thought it was boring, but I loved it.”
I have to say Big K.R.I.T. has a pretty solid Top 5. What do you all think about the list?
