Project: Trapland Pat – Trapnificent

The Bang Biz/Alamo-Signed South Florida Stunner Animates Grooves with Wide-Eyed Intensity on His Latest Project, Featuring Appearances from Fredo Bang, Mozzy, BIG30, and More

Critical Praise:

“He’s subtly melodic and catchy even outside of the hook. He does the beat justice by making what he grew up with into something new.” – Pitchfork

“”Big Business is the #18 Best Rap Song of 2021–If “Big Business” is any indication, Trapland Pat may well become South Florida’s next rap auteur. In less than two minutes, he deftly connects Broward County’s disparate styles, vibrating at his own zany frequency.” – Passion Of The Weiss

“10 New Miami Rappers To Watch…Trapland Pat is unlike any other act to come out of South Florida. Since 2019, Pat has consistently delivered grimy bars and smooth cadences over an array of trap beats. Over the past three years, the Deerfield Beach native has been feeding his growing fanbase with singles like “Emergency” and “Dealings,” along with four projects: Exit 41, Pak Man, Interstate Baby, and 2020 Vision. (The last two albums were released via Fredo Bang’s imprint Bang Biz Productions/Create Music Group.) In 2021, Trapland Pat dropped his latest project, Thru Da Door, via Bang Biz, featuring collaborations with Kuttem Reese and Members Only rapper Kid Trunks. He’s still pushing his latest single, ‘Boondocks,”‘which dropped last month. However, on Instagram, Pat celebrated the anniversary of his song ‘Big Business’ and teased a potential remix coming later this year.” – Miami New Times

“Over the course of the last few weeks perhaps no one else has hit the scene as hard as Pat…The Florida rapper raps with wide-eyed astonishment, seemingly at his own bars sometimes which become as animated as his facial expressions. To be honest, the sheer confidence Trapland Pat employs on the track here just makes you want to pay attention or risk missing out on something.” – ELEVATOR

“Trapland Pat makes pretty music.” – Stereogum

The Project:

With his vibe-setting versatility and unique South Florida flavor, Trapland Pat brings a refined sense of fun to the trap scene. Returning with his signature, charming intensity out in full-force, Pat shares his latest project, Trapnificent, available everywhere via Bang Biz Ent./Alamo Records. With an endless arsenal of captivating bars and the musicality to make them stick, Trapnificent flows seamlessly, walking listeners through memories of a troubled past on tracks like “Stranded” before two-stepping into light-hearted late-night levity on cuts like “Motions” and recent single “Astronaut Status” ft. Fredo Bang.

“I feel like I use the right words to get people to picture what I’m saying, even if they haven’t been through it first hand,” says Trapland Pat.

The follow-up to last year’s Pitchfork-acclaimed Thru Da Door, Trapnificent is home to standout singles like the joyful “Trap Dance” and the sinister “D.O.A.” Pat taps frequent collaborator PepperJack Zoe, who produced his breakout hit “Big Business,” to handle the bulk of the production, his creeping piano-led beats providing grounding for Pat’s larger-than-life bars and hummable melodies. Pat favors a bright and spritely sound that emphasizes his tropical surroundings and his Haitian ancestry, inviting producers like Zoe, Hardbody B-Eazy, and Bankroll Got It to paint around his pitter-patter with dancing arpeggios.

Trapnificent rolls out the red carpet for a tasteful selection of guests, including Sacramento street hero Mozzy, Fredo Bang, who signed Pat to his imprint Bang Biz and appears twice on the tape, NYC Winners Circle maestro Eli Fross, and Memphis’ own BIG30.

Versatility and a hard work ethic are nothing new for Pat. Before music, he played both sides of the ball as a Division 1-recruited football player, which taught him the importance of discipline and repetition in practice that he now brings into every studio session. Pat’s winning mindset is perhaps the greatest feature of his athletic past that he carries over into his music career, which he demonstrates on “4 & A Baby” with the line, “I don’t care if it’s 4th down, we not punting.”

Ready to bring his searing street raps to a larger audience, Trapland Pat has the goods to be Broward County’s next big star. It’s about to be a Trapnificent summer.
