Florida's own Trapland Pat delivers with Trapnificent for the masses
The Florida rap game is no joke with all of the talent coming out of the Sunshine State. Trapland Pat has come through with his new Trapnificent and from the intro song it’s pure audio flames.
Trapland Pat holds the culture down with Trapnificent
It’s easy to throw co-signs left and right but when you tap into his new studio effort? Flawless delivery mixed with hard bars.
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, the upcoming 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.

(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
