"Noble Society is not your weed head uncle’s reggae band. Fronted by former Boot Camp Click affiliate, Jahdan, this Brooklyn outfit eschews the open, organic grooves of traditional roots music. Their ambitious debut, Take Charge is winter time reggae, world music for the new world order; a juxtaposition of the social and spiritual ruminations of vintage island music, the cold, claustrophobia of modern electronica, and the aggressive percussion of hip hop. When everything clicks, the urgency of the production adds heft to the fiery content that is characteristic of the genre, but often muted by the mellow bounce of the soundscapes. "

Last week of feburary jumps off with two of brooklyn new york's driving independant forces: Noble society and blitz the ambassador. Even in a fledging capitalistic/digital industry a fresh and raw sound is always appreciated. The revolutionary sound of blitz seeks to go against the grain..while the NS present a conscious sound live and direct from the essense. Peace..sounds from the house of brooklyn.

BLITZ THE AMBASSADOR "BLACK MARKET"(THROWBACK)

Born and raised in Accra, Ghana, Blitz the Ambassador grew up to the sounds of Afro-Beat, Highlife, Jazz, and Motown. But when his older brother introduced him to Public Enemy’s classic album, It Takes A Nation of Millions to Hold Us Back, as a young boy, he was changed forever. “I had never heard young Black people express themselves in that way before,” recalls Blitz.
