I have to show some love to Blitz The Ambassador here.  In case you don’t know, he’s a very talented young rapper originally from Ghana and has quickly become one of my favorite artists.  In addition to being a dope emcee/musician/producer, he has hands down one of the best live shows in hip-hop, backed by his band, the Mighty Embassy Ensemble.  He opened for Nas at Hunter College this past Friday and killed it despite some audio mix issues out of his control.  I included his performance of “Remembering The Future” from the show, as well as some awesome live videos from Blitz and a live download of “Kill The Radio” to boot.  Be on the lookout for his new album, Stereo Stereotype in stores August 4.
