Hailing from Mississippi, Big K.R.I.T. falls into this category. His mixtape K.R.I.T. Wuz Here is your evidence. He laces the entire mixtape with with his own production while also sporting features from Curren$y, Wiz Khalifa, and Devin the Dude. Check the video for "Children of the World," directed by Creative Control. Download link after the album artwork.
