This Wednesday, 11.19.08, Knitting Factory will welcome in a night of live hiphop with up-and-comers Blitz the Ambassador, Amanda Diva and Che Grand.  The show will “also highlight a musical progression in hip-hop, as the three featured acts all perform backed by live bands. In fact, aside from an opening DJ set to warm up the crowd, there will be no records played on November 19th. Horns will blow. Drums will bang. Mics will be rocked!”

Sounds pretty ill.  All these names should be familiar to you already from here.  Blitz has become a regular with his hustle at the Knit, Amanda Diva has been presenting S.O.B.’s showcases for a while now (and is also now featured on ‘Manwomanboogie’ on Q-Tip’s new record), and Che Grand has performed all over the city and has another show coming up with Wale.  Tickets are $12, show is all ages.
