Bio / Background
The seed of rebellion is slowly taking root. On the frontline stands Blitz (b. Samuel Bazawule). With his first offering-"Soul Rebel." Blitz provides the balance that Hip-Hop has been lacking for awhile. Born and raised in Ghana, Blitz's first encounter with Hip-Hop was mind-opening experience. Politically charged, writhed with an agonizing ear for the truth-Public Enemy enthralled the young mind of Blitz, as did the socio-political poetry of KRS-ONE. Fast forward - New York City. Brooklyn to be exact. Placed deeply in the sounds and sights of the music, Blitz honed his skills lyrically as an MC. Sick of the mundane "assembly-line" nature of Hip-Hop, Blitz created his own sound.
Taking cues from such artists as Miles Davis, Fela Kuti Mos Def, Talib Kweli and Dead Prez - Blitz bridges the gap between the soulful sounds of the streets and the ill-nature of politics. On his debut album, he analyzes the stale climate of Hip-Hop, which eventually led him to pursue higher education.
