Breathe (Feat. Bob Murat)
Blitz The AmbassadorBreathe - Blitz The Ambassador
Who says that hip-hop has to be limited to auto-tune and some phat drum beats recorded on Ableton Live? No, hip-hop can be much more and Blitz The Ambassador, hailing from Ghana, shows us how extravagant hip-hop can be since the days when Black Eyes Peas used to be good. This music is infectious, rich in instrumentation and multiple vocals, and just the best darn time you can have listening to hip-hop.
“Inhale, exhale.”
Free Your Mind
Blitz the AmbassadorBlitz the Ambassador: Free Your Mind
Staring at the land of my birth
With a bird’s eye view
See the truth and it hurts
Still waiting for the people
To rise up on the continent
Still they got all our Kings divided
Stealing all the resources
While they lie to us
From the World Bank, it goes to the IMF
And the puppet politicians
Are supporting their policies
Selling out their own people
To the government overseas
So whatever they do, we do
Whatever they think, we think
It’s so insane
How the richest continent
Got most of the poor people
They pillage us and wonder why
we are not equal
Got a lot of nerve to call us Third World
When we were the first architects in this world
But remember ain’t nobody saving an African
Only an African can save himself
Free your mind, free, free your mind, free your mind,
colonial mentality.
Dear Africa Ft. Les Nubians
Blitz the AmbassadorDear Africa - Blitz The Ambassador
Native Sun is burning a hole in my soul. It’s a divine fusion of hip-hop, afrobeat, and jazz. Three genres I love on their own and that I absolutely go crazy for when combined into one explosive punch of audible amazingness. Blitz The Ambassador, like Fela Kuti before him and many other contemporary African artists, use music as a weapon. They wholeheartedly express their hopes for a united Africa in the lyrics. The music is a rallying call for all to join in the movement for peace and unity. I can’t wait to relish in the awesomeness of Blitz The Ambassador tomorrow at Webster Hall.
“You should know I never stopped reppin’ you.”
