Come July 12th, the world will finally get their hands on Big K.R.I.T.‘s forthcoming album K.R.I.T. IZ HERE, which is set to feature 19 new tracks and features from J. Cole, Rico Love, Yella Beezy and more. Today, we get to check out another cut from the project titled “Addiction,” which features assistance from Lil Wayne and Saweetie. The song was premiered via Zane Lowe’s Beats 1 radio show, where K.R.I.T. explains its creation:

“We were actually in L.A. last year. I got in the studio to work with Rico Love. He executive produced the album along with my manager, Dutch. And so Don Corleon did the beat, Rico was vibing and came up with the hook concept. And then it was like a challenge for me, just the different groove, you know what I’m saying, different vibe with the record… We was able to get Wayne on the song, right? And then Rico was in the studio with Sweetie, and then we was able to get her on the record, and then it just became this monster that it is now. And I’m still being my country self, you know what I’m saying? But experimenting with different cadences and ways just come off that people might not be used to, but I’m excited about that.”
