Blessed

Blessed is a dancehall album by Jamaican musician Beenie Man, released in 1995 (see 1995 in music). As his first album to receive an international release, Blessed gained Beenie Man a large following outside of Jamaica for the first time, setting the stage for his multiple collaborations with some of the biggest American hip hop and R&B stars of the late-1990s and early 2000s.

Blessed peaked at #12 on Billboard's Reggae Albums chart (North America).
