“Box Chevy Pt 3” was the high point of Yelawolf’s breakout mixtape, but the song’s standout verse belonged to an unknown rapper whose scalding double time verse prompted many a Google search of the name “Rittz.” All they found was a MySpace of a guy who looked like Carrot Top’s country cousin. It turns out Rittz was on the verge of hanging up the mic when Yela called him.
Over a year later, the Georgia rapper is signed to Yelawolf’s Slumerican imprint and he has his own mixtape out. Packing dozens of words into each second, Rittz lets out a lifetime’s worth of frustration with women, friends, and his career. He also parties it up with lots of drugs. It’s a true country rap affair with appearances from Yelawolf, DJ Burn One, and Supahot Beats. Time will tell if White Jesus does for Rittz what Trunk Muzik did for Yelawolf.
Update: Apparently, the tape has been “Re-Mastered,” so download it again.
