Rittz

Following several successful mixtapes, up-and-coming rapper Rittz made his album debut in 2013 with The Life and Times of Jonny Valiant, garnering praise for the album's solid production and his honest lyrical approach. Rittz is no stranger to hardship, as he endured years of touch-and-go management situations, unfulfilled contracts and career disappointments before finally catching a break in 2009 with the help of fellow rapper Yelawolf. He was featured on Yelawolf's song, "Box Chevy," on the Trunk Muzik mixtape, which was the ticket that put Rittz's career into motion. Rittz toured with Yelawolf in 2012 as the opening act on the Slumerican tour.
