(Article) Big K.R.I.T. x iD Online Interview
July 13, 2011 
" Explain the meaning of K.R.I.T? It stands for King Remembered in Time. It’s a humble way of saying I’m gonna be on top of my lane as far as music is concerned. Be a king of my brand of music. It is a name I have to live up to.
Who or what inspires your music? Life inspires my music a lot. Things that I go through everyday be it spiritually, emotionally, financially. I gotta draw from all these experiences and rap about them only because that’s a topic everyone can relate to no matter what your colour is or your religion. Being human is hard enough. Also, definitely UGK, 8 Ball and MJG, Outkast, Goodie Mob, Dungeon Family, Scarface, Willie Hutch, Bobby Womack, Curtis Mayfield, The Controllers, a lot of soul music as well. BB King, Muddy Waters, a lot of people like that.
Why did you decide to produce the entire Return of 4eva mixtape yourself? As a milestone, just looking at all the great producers who did the same thing, talking about Kanye West, David Banner, Pimp C, Super Tight, and I just wanted to be one of those artists that could actually put together a whole project as a producer as well. It was a dream for me to do my first major label album myself. It was a lot of hard work but I’m proud of it. "
