Stiven Mesa Londoño (born 27 January 2000), known professionally as Blessd, is a Colombian rapper, singer and songwriter. Born in Itagüí, he has worked with well-known artists such as Maluma, Justin Quiles, and Myke Towers.
In October 2021, Blessd signed with Warner Music Latina and released his first studio album, Hecho en Medellín. His most popular song from the album, entitled "Medallo", has reached number 1 in Colombia and has over 100 million views on YouTube. In March 2022, he was nominated for three Heat Latin Music Awards, including Best New Artist, Best Artist – Andean Region and Best Collaboration for the song "Medallo".
Blessd was born in 2000 in Itagüí, a suburb of Medellín. His parents separated when he was young and he moved with his mother to live in Bogotá. In an interview with MoluscoTV, he describes his adolescence in Bogotá as difficult because he had a hard time communicating with his stepfather and was far away from the rest of his family. He began to spend a lot of time away from his home and got into many situations he describes as "dangerous". After a fight, he spent a short time in a detention center for minors. This experience made him want to change his path and he decided to return to Medellín.
When he returned to Medellín he lived with his maternal grandparents. Before leaving school to pursue his music career, he studied at the Institución Educativa Pedro Estrada.
