The young musician wasted no time making a huge statement recording his first song,\u00a0\u2018Dead Dem Ago\u2019.<\/strong><\/em>\u00a0It quickly connected him to the audience in his community. \u201cI was raised in a Christian home where dancehall and reggae music weren\u2019t played”, he said. “My cousin Jerry and I used to hide in his room and record songs on his desktop computer\u201d.<\/p>\n Blistas migrated to Canada in 2008 and has been making music professionally for the last 3 years. He is one of the young artists currently creating a buzz on the Canadian music scene and is excited to be a part of the growth that is happening locally. \u201cReggae and dancehall are now getting more highlight in Canada, but I think the artists here needs to be promoted better”, he said. There is a lot of talent, and with the proper push I think Canadian artists would be recognized globally and not have to move out of Canada to make it big\u201d.<\/p>\n Blistas has released 17 singles and a mixtape to date and is currently working on his first EP Titled\u00a0\u2018Di Intro\u2019<\/strong><\/em>, which will hit the market in early 2022.
