“COUNT ON ME” is BROCKHAMPTON’s second single from their sixth studio album, ROADRUNNER: NEW LIGHT, NEW MACHINE. The song features only two of the seven BROCKHAMPTON vocalists but features uncredited verses from A$AP Rocky and SoGoneSoFlexy, as well as uncredited vocals on the chorus from Shawn Mendes and frequent collaborator Ryan Beatty.

This is the first collaboration between Shawn and BROCKHAMPTON. Fans and BROCKHAMPTON member Kevin Abstract alike have been anticipating the collaboration since Kevin mentioned Shawn in one of their biggest hits, being “STAR” from their critically acclaimed 2017 album SATURATION. On the song, he raps:

I don’t fuck with no white boys unless that nigga Shawn Mendes

A snippet of the song was first leaked in December 2020, containing a portion of Rocky’s verse. Lyrics from Flexy’s verse, as well as the song title, were accidentally revealed by HK in an Instagram live with Kevin Abstract on February 23, 2021.

The music video features Dominic Fike and Lil Nas X as lovers driving into a forest. Later they take a hallucinatory stroll through the forest. The video ends with the lovers embracing each other.
