Brooklyn-Accra MC Blitz The Ambassador shares his latest track “JuJu Girl,” the lead single from his upcoming album DIASPORADICAL, a follow-up to last year’s Afropolitan Dreams LP.
The song sees Blitz and vocalist Rasul A-Salaam lauding an enchanting girl backed by afrobeat-indebted trumpets, guitar riffs and beats. The soundscape of the tune channels strains of highlife and afrobeat through a classic hip-hop lens, a formula that the Ghanaian-American rapper has fined-tuned over his standout EPs and LPs.
