GRITS is a Christian hip hop group from Nashville, Tennessee. Their name is an acronym, which stands for "Grammatical Revolution In The Spirit," hence the name of the third album (Grammatical Revolution). GRITS is made up of Stacy "Coffee" Jones and Teron "Bonafide" Carter. Mainly, their style is alternative and Southern, while several of their songs have pop influences, thus an occasional pop-rap sound, and their song "Ooh Ah" has a Jamaican influence complete with steel drums. They are signed to Gotee Records, and have released seven albums with Gotee, with an eighth one released by Gotee and AudioGoat. They have appeared at Cornerstone Festival and Rock the Universe.
