Live Session With Rising Star Blxst

Fresh from his recent performance on the ASCAP “On The Come Up” showcase we catch up with rising start Blxst to discuss his music, performing during the era of COVID, what it’s like to be behind the boards working on his own music, and much more.

Back story – Blxst began his solo music career in Los Angeles in 2015 after writing, producing, and honing his sound. He’s been unstoppable ever since, releasing his first single “Who Would’ve Thought” in 2016, and his breakout hit “Hurt” in 2019, which surpassed 2,000,000 streams as an independent release. This year he teamed up with Red Bull Records to give us his debut EP No Love Lost, followed by a four-part series of visuals for tracks from the project. Respect for Blxst’s musical ability as an artist and producer continue to grow. From self-editing artwork to mixing and mastering his own sound, these skills have put Blxst in a position to work side-by-side with countless west coast figures, including DJ Mustard, YG, Kendrick Lamar, and many more.

Blxst’s music is quite the experience and offers some complex nuances throughout his work. One of his more fun joints is Slip & Slide featuring 1TakeJay who is known for his party anthems throughout the LA area. One of my personal favorites is No Love Lost which needs no explanation!
