Bio

"Life is like a maze, until you make it to amazing." Patrick Johnson III
(Patrick the Third) is a hip-hop artist from Memphis, TN with as much
passion for performance as music creation. Born in Savannah, GA, Patrick
has been performing in front of crowds since the age of three.
Beginning with recitals in church, progressing to elementary theatre,
and as far as, being recruited to join his middle school musical program
after his teacher discovered his, then unforeseen, talents. Early
influences of Patrick came from growing up in a household filled with
old school RnB and Jazz music, provided by his father. The
Temptations, Prince, James Brown, and Michael Jackson, shaped the
outlook and emphasis on performance that Patrick exudes on any stage he
is placed on today.    
    There was a point in my life where you couldnt tell me i wasnt Michael Jackson says Patrick.
    
  
  As he got older, Patrick was more influenced by rock and roll artist
than rappers. Patrick was attracted to acts like Nirvana, Jimi Hendrix,
Limp Bizkit, and Red Hot Chili Pepper, which played a part in the way he
began to invasion his own stage performance. This attention to
showmanship is what continues to draw people to the up and coming
hip-hop artist. No arena has proven too large or small for Patrick. From
performing with current stars, such as, Big Sean and Curren$y to, what
Patrick refers to as one of the highlights of his budding career,
sharing the stage with Memphis legends 8Ball & MJG.
    
  
 Patrick the Third decided to pursue his craft, full time, after he
realized higher education wasnt where his heart lie, and was getting
verily little fulfillment out of anything outside of music. After 2010,
it didnt take long to create a buzz around the Memphis show circuit.
People were curious to see this little guy who was, not only, a
talented rapper, but took special pride in putting on an unforgettable
show. Laying that foundation opened doors for Patrick to work with some
of the most respected artist and producers in the memphis music
industry.
    
    Patrick released the first official single of
his career Way Down featuring Timbalands artist, and fellow Memphian,
Jozzy on December 3rd, 2013. Patrick is currently gearing up to
release the third installment of his Prime Time mixtape series. The
first two were used for sample/demo purposes, but still received with
great review. Prime Time the Third features the more aggressive, edgy
side of Patrick the Third. Deciding to go with a more hometown
influenced sound gives Patrick the opportunity to showcase the
versatility of music and message he plans to make a theme throughout his
career.  

    This project is for the people whove supported
me from the beginning, says Patrick, I want to show them Im still the
same artist they fell in love with three years ago.
