Even though the international popularity of Hip Hop has seen many heavyweight acts perform in Africa, what captivates the Motherland even more is an artist whose music is enriched by the traditional sounds from the continent. Whilst Talib Kweli and Nas have made several references to Africa, none have been more fully immersed in the culture than Ghanaian-American rapper Blitz The Ambassador. Lauded for his delicious blend of African Jazz, Hip Hop and poetry, Blitz is a favourite of many critics and with his new album, Native Sun ready for release, the Ambassador hopes his unique offerings can break into the paint-by-numbers realms of mainstream success.
