Summer is upon us, the warm winds and long days bring positive vibes and bright outlooks. One of my favorite parts of summer is the new music that comes out, and this summer starting off with a bang. The acclaimed Amerigo Gazaway just dropped a new mash-up album with the collaboration of two musical legends, Nina Simone and Lauryn Hill. The album Miseducation of Eunice Waymon is more than just a regular mash-up album, Amerigo’s orchestration and arrangements elevate the album to almost original collaboration. It was like Lauryn Hill and Nina Simone were in the studio together recording the album. Amerigo Gazaway always comes correct with his collaborations and this album is no different, go cop the album.

The Mos Def cut “They celebrate my jams in foreign lands” sums up how I feel about the new Blitz the ambassador EP on Jakarta. The Ghanaian born emcee has enlisted a multitude of international artists to help support this EP. You get to hear 20Syl from France, Emicida from Brazil, and his fellow Ghanaian countryman Sarkodie. The Warm up EP has this afro-beat sound that has this swing that will get your head bobbing. There is no question about the talent that Blitz the ambassador has, his flow is tight and his lyrics are conscious and meaningful. The EP can be downloaded for free, so don’t waste a minute and cop it.
