Count On Me

Brockhampton Lets Lil Nas X And Dominic Fike Embark On A Trippy Journey In Their Video For ‘Count On Me’

by

Brockhampton has promised two albums this year, and the first, Roadrunner: New Light, New Machine, arrived last week. Already there’s a new video for one of its tracks, and it finds the boy band teaming up with two of his musical peers, Lil Nas X and Dominic Fike. The two star in the video for “Count On Me,” the second single from the new album, and it begins with Lil Nas and Fike riding in a Jeep as they kick off while cracking jokes like, “Who the f*ck is Radiohead?” Things take an unexpected turn when the two singers end up in the midst of a seemingly drug-infused trip that ends with surprising make-out session.

Roadrunner: New Light, New Machine enlists ASAP Rocky, ASAP Ferg, Danny Brown, Jpegmafia, Charlie Wilson, and more for the thirteen-track effort. Prior to the project’s release, Kevin Abstract, the groups’ lead vocalist, delivered news about Brockhampton’s future in a tweet. “2 brockhampton albums in 2021 – these will be our last,” he wrote. Exactly when that second album will arrive remains to be seen, but it appears that after a long run that started back in 2016 with their debut mixtape, All-American Trash, Brockhampton will be no more come 2022.

You can watch the “Count On Me” video above.

Brockhampton Labels Themselves As Trustworthy Companions On The Warm ‘Count On Me’

Nearly two years after releasing Ginger, Brockhampton will treat their fans with their sixth effort, Roadrunner: New Light, New Machine next week. It’s a project that their supporters have spent a few months waiting for, especially after the band dropped off some hints about it.

After kicking off its rollout with “Buzzcut” featuring Danny Brown, Brockhampton doubles back with their second single, “Count On Me.” Unlike their previous single, “Count On Me” is a much lighter and upbeat track that sees the rappers providing assurance to their partners that no matter what, things within their relationships will be okay.

Roadrunner: New Light, New Machine will arrive with 13 songs and features from ASAP Rocky, ASAP Ferg, Charlie Wilson Sogone Soflex, Jpegmafia, and Baird in addition to Danny Brown. While the upcoming effort’s release is certainly exciting for fans, it does arrive with some bad news. Brockhampton’s lead vocalist, Kevin Abstract, shared the news about the band’s future in a tweet. “2 brockhampton albums in 2021 – these will be our last,” he said, seemingly promising that the album that arrives after Roadrunner: New Light, New Machine will bring an end to Brockhampton as we know it.

Until then, you can press play on the song in the video above.
