Epic intro! If you love Hip-Hop, this is one man you should get to know. Al Lindstrom says…

This one is a little bit different. We invade Cinematic Music Group Founder/Big K.R.I.T’s manager Jonny Shipes apartment to shoot our next Allindstrom.com feature. What ensues is a mix of information (we talk about Shipes come up in the game, finding Sean Kingston, and what went wrong with Nipsey Hussle and Epic) and hilariousness (see Cuzzin Todd’s special guest feature). Consider this the Cinematic TV treatment of an Allindstrom.com feature.

Stay tuned for part 2, coming soon.

DEAD at the beginning! Jacques Morel says…

For the latest episode of Outside the Booth, DJBoothTV’s own Jacques Morel catches up with Big K.R.I.T. for his Live From the Underground listening session to talk about the upcoming album, his new work with legendary musicians like B.B. King and much more. Plus a special guest appearance from Sha Money.

Last Night, Big K.R.I.T. held a listening session for his upcoming album Live From The Underground in New York City. BlowHipHopTV was in attendance and delivers some footage from the event. Album in stores June 5th. Heard some great reviews about this project doubt it will disappoint. Hit the jump for extra footage couresty of PrimeTimeHD.

Obese Notes: I was in attendance last night at the event. The first word that comes to mind is PACKED! The guest list was said to have 400+ of our industry’s biggest taste makers, which goes to show just how much K.R.I.T. is respected. It was hard to hear the album at times, but from what I could hear, it was everything a Krizzle fan like myself is looking for and then some. He’s got some absolute bangers, singles and just straight country rap tunes that we’ve all come to know and love from the Mississippi native. No more push backs folks! Get ready to go Live From The Underground on June 5.
