Blvk H3ro Counts His Blessings On ‘Thankful’: Watch
Thankful is a monument to gratitude; a reminder to seek comfort in one’s blessings even when it’s easier to languish in frustration. It’s not difficult to imagine that Blvk H3ro, whose mainstream prospects continue to surge, could’ve used the song to highlight his hard-won professional triumphs. Instead, however, he opts to broaden his scope as he gives thanks for more universal and enduring gifts: life itself and the people who help give it meaning.
Over a bouncy, soul-tinged riddim produced by Troublemekka, Blvk H3ro defiantly navigates his mind through negative spells and situations. Doubt, like a dense haze, obscures and distorts the reality of those who fall victim to it and the Portmore-raised artiste is no exception. Rather than wallow in self-pity, however, H3ro takes stock of the wonders of life and remembers to appreciate the moment in this upful, forward-looking track.
In the accompanying Ruppi-directed video, Blvk H3ro heads off to western Jamaica to sample the natural beauty and local hospitality with friends in tow. Rich, saturated colors lace the visuals as H3ro spreads his magnetic optimism across rivers, hills, beaches, and even traffic-congested streets. Whether he’s soaking up the blue skies of a Negril morning or venturing out on an overcast afternoon, Blvk H3ro maintains the same unfettered enthusiasm for the day and with ‘Thankful,’ he invites his listeners to do the same.
