Dear Africa

Blitz The Ambassador is one of the most inventive hip-hop artists on the planet. Coming originally from Accra, Ghana by way of Brooklyn, NY, Blitz has a consciousness that spans continents and cultures. Native Sun, his new album out May 3, 2011 on Embassy MVMT Records, is a portal into his soul capturing the essence of who he is and from where he comes. The first single to drop, Dear Africa, is a letter to the motherland featuring Les Nubians. I'll be delving much deeper into this album and Blitz as an artist in the near future. In the meantime, dig this track and do what you gotta to catch Blitz on his spring tour:
