Blake is now pursuing a music career and released his first single " The Night (Only Place To Go)" on April 27 of 2010 on MuchMusic. He presented an award with Girlicious at the 2010 MuchMusic Video Awards on June 20, 2010. His follow up single was "Relax" with sampling from the hit with same name from Frankie Goes to Hollywood.
He is bisexual as he declared to fab Canadian gay magazine in an interview by saying: "I’ve been attracted to men and attracted to women," he tells Canada's gay rag Fab. "My feelings change all the time. One day I can feel like I’m gay, another day like I’m straight. But I’m not just one or the other, I’m Blake McGrath and I’m attracted to somebody on the inside. I don’t want to look for love in half the world." Since 2013, McGrath has been in a relationship with fellow dancer, Joseph Guadagno of Long Island, New York.

Blake McGrath Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
If you don't quit it im gonna lose my sh*t
The way you do it
The way you spinnin' im gonna lose it quick
I wanna save it up
Till I can drown you in a sea of love
So baby soak it up
When the rain is coming don't you miss a drop
Stop, wait a minitue
Slow down a little
Cause I dont want to go yet blow this stop, wait a minitue
Slow down a little
Cause I don't want to go yet baby relax
Don't do it, (slow down)
Stop moving, (relax)
Don't do it when I wanna come
(Relax)
Don't do it (lay back)
Stop moving (relax)
Don't do it when I wanna come
When I wanna come
You musn't lose sh*t
Last time we did it it wasn't like this
You learned some new tricks
Last time I hit it it didn't go like this
Stop, wait a minitue
Slow down a little
Cause I dont want to go yet blow this stop, wait a minitue
Slow down a little
Cause I dont want to go yet baby relax
Don't do it, (slow down)
Stop moving (relax)
Don't do it when i wanna come
(Relax)
Don't do it, (lay back)
Stop moving (relax)
Don't do it, when I wanna come
When I wanna come [x3]
Baby relax
Don't do it (slow down)
Stop moving (relax)
Don't do it when i wanna come
(Relax)
Don't do it (lay back)
Stop moving (relax)
Don't do it, when I wanna come
When I wanna come [x3]
Relax
When I wanna come
Relax
When I wanna come
When I wanna come
The lyrics to Blake McGrath's song Relax seem to be about a sensual and sexual experience between two people. McGrath gets lost in the way his partner moves and spins, to the point where he may lose control if she doesn't slow down or stop. He wants to save up his passion so that he can fully immerse himself in an intimate moment with her. However, he also wants her to slow down so that he can fully enjoy the experience without being rushed or finishing too quickly. The repeated refrain of "don't do it" and "stop moving" reinforces this need to slow down and ultimately relax.
The song's lyrics are very clear and direct, not leaving much for interpretation. Nevertheless, the way they are presented through McGrath's R&B and hip hop influenced sound, and use of electronica, creates an intense and alluring atmosphere for the listener. McGrath's vocal performance is smooth and seductive, matching the mood of the lyrics.
Overall, Relax is a sensual and passionate song about indulging in and fully enjoying an intimate experience, while also keeping control and pacing oneself.
