New Jersey rapper Mach-Hommy is releasing a brand new album entitled #RICHAXXHAITIAN — the official follow-up to 2021’s Pray for Haiti and Balens Cho, and the final installment of a tetralogy centered on his native nation of Haiti.
To set issues off, Mach tapped 03 Greedo for the hook and fellow Haitian KAYTRANADA for the manufacturing of the album’s title monitor and lead single. “RICHAXXHAITIAN” options Mach spitting in a rapid-fire circulate and Greedo crooning like a West Coast Max B over a bouncy beat that interpolates Afrobeats legend Odion Iruoje’s “Ikebe.”
