Yonkers, NY – Veteran rap artist COUNT, hailing from Yonkers, NY, is set to release his highly anticipated album Pat and Walter’s Son 3 on November 30, 2024, marking a personal milestone as it coincides with his birthday. This release is the latest installment in a trilogy of albums dedicated to his parents, symbolically released on their respective birthdays, showcasing COUNT’s unique approach to storytelling and paying homage to his family.
Having started his rap career in 1998, COUNT‘s journey through hip-hop has been marked by resilience, consistency, and the desire to stand out in a crowded industry. Originally part of the rap group Suspects, COUNT made a name for himself as a young MC, forming strong connections and even landing a near signing. While those early dreams didn’t materialize, COUNT returned to the scene stronger than ever in the late 2000s with the release of Other Niggas Beats Vol. 1 and Vol. 2, which both garnered attention on DatPiff.com under 730 ENT.
After a brief hiatus, COUNT made his comeback during the COVID-19 pandemic, driven by a renewed sense of purpose and reflection on life. He introduced the first part of his Pat and Walter’s Son series on July 12, 2021, his mother’s birthday, followed by the second installment on May 1, 2022, his father’s birthday. Now, as he prepares for the release of Pat and Walter’s Son 3, COUNT promises to deliver another authentic body of work that reflects his real-life experiences, positive outlook, and unorthodox lyrical style.
“The idea behind Pat and Walter’s Son was to do something different,” COUNT explains. “Everyone’s rapping the same today, but my rap is real life—positive, inspiring, and straight to the point. I wanted to create something timeless, something that reflects my past and the lessons I’ve learned. Each album in this series is personal, tied to the birthdays of my parents, and I wanted to bring that sentiment to my music.”
As COUNT approaches the release of Pat and Walter’s Son 3, the album will feature two singles, “Keep Pushing” and “All My Life,” both of which are already gaining traction across streaming platforms. His music, often praised for its substance and depth, reflects the wisdom and maturity of an artist who has lived through and learned from life’s ups and downs.
“I’m 40 years old, and I want people to know that the older you get, the more substance and sustainability your music has,” says COUNT. “I’ve been through it all, and my story is real—from the heart. Hopefully, the world will catch on to COUNT, a dope artist and person who’s not to be missed.”
COUNT’s discography showcases his authenticity and lyrical depth, making him a standout in the hip-hop scene. His music is praised for its realness and heart, resonating with listeners who appreciate substance over hype. His YouTube channel, SUSPECTS1000, features a collection of music videos and interviews that offer fans a deeper look into his journey and creative process. His latest work can be found on all digital streaming platforms, including Apple Music and Spotify.
