Producer Of The Year:

Big K.R.I.T.

As one of the year's most impactful emcees, Mississippi native Big K.R.I.T.'s production equally astounded us this year. Soulful chops, hard bass and scribbled scratches show K.R.I.T. is influenced by Organized Noize, Pimp C and DJ Toomp. Moreover, in addition to his second album-worthy masterpiece in ReturnOf4Eva, Krilzle stepped in to assist T.I., Ludacris and Smoke DZA with sounds that made outstanding marks in their catalogs. J. Cole, Blu and Kanye West aren't the only talented '00s emcees who are also sought after for their sounds.
