(New Music) Mach-Hommy - #RICHAXXHAITIAN feat. Kaytranada & 03 Greedo

Mach-Hommy has unveiled a fresh track called “#RichAxxHaitian,” produced by his collaborator Kaytranada from “$PayForHaiti,” featuring 03 Greedo. He's set to drop his latest album, #RichAxxHaitian, on Friday, May 17, just before Haitian Flag Day. This album marks the culmination of a series he began in 2016 with HBO (Haitian Body Odor), followed by Pray For Haiti and Balens Cho (Hot Candles) in 2021.

According to Pitchfork, he emphasized his commitment to directing his earnings from Pray For Haiti and the recent “$payforhaiti” single towards the Pray For Haiti Trust Fund. This fund aims to support education and construct a technology hub for young Haitian kids.

“We talking about a place where potable drinking water is a serious problem,” he says. “There’s no work of art that could take the place of a home to live in or public waterworks or electricity. It’s a work in progress, and until we start to cross some serious thresholds with these efforts, it really won’t mean much of anything to anyone on the ground suffering.”

Speaking of his recent collaboration with Kaytranada on “$payforhaiti,” he mentioned how naturally things fell into place. "Everything I do gotta fall into place naturally. The hip-hop scene in Montreal and Quebec is brolic, son. It’s one of the meccas outside of the U.S. lowkey. They’re really serious about it out there. Kaytranada got better beats than a lotta cats in the underground."

"I’ma keep it real: The boy Kay is clear, but I don’t know if other people will hear that other side of him. He already knew what I was into. We definitely caught a wave with [“$payforhaiti”] and splashed the joint up, but people don’t understand his range. We got some deep cuts that I don’t know if y’all will get to hear, but they out there." Check out the tracks below and make sure to get the new single on Apple Music.
