DOWNLOAD: Blitz The Ambassador - Breathe (feat. Rob Murat)

"Breathe" is the new single from Ghanian-born, Brooklyn-based MC Blitz The Ambassador, a song crammed with big, braggy horns, and some seriously ill fret-burning in the background, like on a Battles tip if you listen carefully. The jam comes from his new album Stereotype, due for release soon in '09 and featuring guest spots from the Hypnotic Brass Ensemble, J. Ivy, and longtime collaborator Optiks. It promises more of the hefty, confident stuff you're hearing in "Breathe," so this'll likely be one of the sleeper breakthroughs of the year, especially if (like us) you're tired of hearing about the same seven "rappers to watch in '09."

Sounds like: Mos Def, Notes To Self, Talib Kweli
