About Blok

Everybody, meet Quentin Marcell Grant Jr. Better known as: Cell Blok aka Blokalypse, aka Blokavessel, aka BlokaVee.... Now let's take a second to get a little more familiar!

Cell Blok is a Christian, that ministers through Word and Music. Currently, he is the residing bible teacher at “Word of His Power Ministries,” located in Harvey IL, (264 w. 149th pl.) He's a mentor, husband,  father, rapper, as well as an ever devoloping sound engineer at Blok Party studios. 

On July 29, 2008 when Marcell was only 15 years old, he was standing outside in a circle of family and friends, when a gunman opened fire releasing about 6-8 shots. While attempting to run, Marcell was shot in his back. What seemed to be a tragedy, turned out to be a testimony; through prayer and faith, he had a miraculous recovery and was out of the hospital in just a few days following this, rap became therapeutic. 

Cell Blok was first introduced to rap by his dad, Quentin Grant; then later, his affections were enhanced by his older cousin Kool-Aide. Having been convicted by the Holy Spirit in 2010, Cell Blok started surrendering to his calling and made a conscious decision to stop doing secular music. While yielding to the Spirit, he received a revelation to do gospel rap, as well as teach. 

2011 brought about Cell Blok’s first gospel hip-hop project, entitled, "Anudae". Fast forward 6 years to 2017, and he starts the year off with an EP release entitled, "Rock'n W/ Tha King"; the project features: Brother 3, Fella Soul, Lyriq Nawqiy, God's Vision, and Jiovani J, in addition to many more.

Cell Blok seeks to use his life experiences, his faith, and his passion for the fullness of life, to give breath to music that is Christ infused; in order to change lives and mindsets. 

2017 is sure to be a promising year, as Blok's newly developed team; Break Bread Entertainment (Rickavessel, Cell Blok & Lyriq Nawqiy), have lots of music coming down the pipeline; such as, "Rock'n Wit Tha King," which is set to be his first release of the year,  but most assuredly, not his last.
