DX: You said you’re going in a different direction than what you’ve done in the past. How would you categorize that direction that you’re going into?
Big K.R.I.T.: It’s just really embracing Soul from a different perspective and not really sampling as much. [We’re] creating records that sound like samples, and I’m using my voice more as an instrument than anything now. Then we’re spending an enormous amount of time on making sure that the mix, EQ, the dynamics, the vibe and everything is all the way right…the sequence. All of that is extremely important to me now. It’s great, because now that I’m not producing all of this, I can spend as much time as I want on those things.
