Just like the Roots, Ghana born NYC raised rapper Blitz The Ambassador, preforms and has most of his music all produced in front of a 7 person live band called the Embassy Ensemble. This includes stand up bass, sax, trumbone, live percussion and many others. Blitz is also known for rhyming in his native language called Twi (pronounced "Trwee"). This makes a great combo in my opinion. Take a look.
