Big Krit was on Def Jam and now on BMG those are major record labels
that's not underground

He may be independent from Def Jam but he not underground

Def Jam is a world renown recording label

When your signed u in the Hip Hop radar u can't be underground

now I believe he on BMG which is a major label with acts such as Bruno Mars bro that aint underground

He's no different than UGK or Z-Ro

They will always be considered underground no matter how much fame they had at one point.

Not my fault no one outside of houston knows your favorite rapper

Z-Ro is independent but not underground

UGK is for sure not underground

Z-Ro is like a major independent

Z-Ro broke into mainstream but is now more independent

but to me he is not underground

UGK have been on major labels and are all over the mainstream

especially Bun B so no they are not underground

underground is when your not on a major label

your not on any mainstream outlets such as radio or television

you not in magazine adds or internet adds

Major labels pay for this promotion and radio spins
