Blast is Known as 10 different artists:
1) A Japanese Indies rock band. They are labeled as Nagoya Kei and have heavy connections with the bands Lamiel, Phobia, Kein, deadman, and Gullet. Vox: Yuina, Guitar: Iori, Bass: Hiderou, Drums: Hibiki
They started in 2001 out of the break up of Lamiel and disbanded in 2004.

2) Blast, the fourth of five children, Blast grew up in South Chicago where gangs were rampant and getting caught up in a life on the streets was the norm. But he was determined to take a different path, and by the age of nine, had focused his energy on rap music. My first rap album was Dr. Dre. After I bought the Chronic, it was a wrap. I knew I was in love with hip hop, Blast remembers. Rap became
more than something to listen to, and he soon found inspiration from well-known artists like Wu-tang, Notorious B.I.G., Jay-Z, UGK and Scarface. At the age of 13, Blast moved with his mother to Texas. “It was a different world. I would vibe with all my friends in the studio and just sit back and listen. But, I
didnt take it too seriously,” Blast said. He graduated from high school and moved back to Chicago to attend college. It wasnt long before he realized music and rapping was what he really wanted to do. “I was in school battling and writing verses and songs everyday and I knew I was made for this.” He moved back to Texas and hooked up with Big Gun Records where he started working on mixtapes. It was easy to hear he brought a unique style to the industry with his mix of Midwest slang and East Coast flow, combined with Southern flamboyance.
