Toronto-based reggae/dancehall artist Blistas is set to make waves in the music industry with the release of his debut album, ‘Therapy,’ on April 20th. In a music scene often dominated by superficial themes, Blistas aims to fill the void with his uplifting and conscious tracks, urging aspiring artists to create more positive music.
Driven by a desire to inspire and motivate listeners worldwide, Blistas poured his heart and soul into ‘Therapy,’ infusing each track with meaningful messages drawn from his personal experiences.

While rooted in reggae, the album ventures into new sonic territories, incorporating diverse beats and tempos to create a refreshing listening experience. Blistas’ willingness to experiment with different sounds showcases his versatility and commitment to artistic growth.
One standout track, ‘Natty Congo,’ addresses the poignant issue of cultural identity and empowerment, inspired by real-life events in Jamaica. Meanwhile, songs like ‘Scars’ delve into themes of betrayal and resilience, offering listeners a glimpse into the artist’s emotional journey.
For Blistas, music has always been a form of therapy, a sentiment reflected in the album’s title. He hopes that ‘Therapy’ will resonate with audiences on a profound level, providing them with solace and inspiration in their own lives.
Despite facing challenges along the way, including the decision to focus solely on reggae and conscious music, Blistas remained steadfast in his vision. Supported by a team of talented producers and collaborators, Onique, Jah, Stefano Santoto, he brings his musical aspirations to fruition under his MFGMusic label.
The album boasts two notable collaborations, ‘Shake up the Town’ featuring Onique and ‘Stronger’ featuring Roshelle, each adding their unique flair to the project. With an official music video planned for every song, Blistas invites fans to join him on his artistic journey through his VEVO channel.
As anticipation builds for the release of ‘Therapy,’ Blistas looks forward to hitting the road with a Canada and Jamaica tour, with plans for additional international shows in the works. Details will be shared on his social media platforms, ensuring fans stay updated on all upcoming events.
In a music industry often overshadowed by commercialism, Blistas emerges as a beacon of positivity and authenticity. With “Therapy,” he not only shares his musical talents but also offers listeners a much-needed dose of musical healing in a tumultuous world.
