Previously shrouded in mystery and only known to underground hip-hop fans, rapper Mach-Hommy has enjoyed a coming-out party with the release of
Pray for Haiti. Notorious for hiding his identity behind his native Haitian flag, arriving late to a meeting with Jay-Z and a collaboration with late masked colleague MF Doom, Hommy has squashed his beef with his label Griselda and produced a substantive project. From the artwork, to the skits and trilingual content, the album stands out aesthetically and reaffirms Mach s cultural and artistic identity.
Even if Mach-Hommy s personality is the driving force behind the album, executive producer Westside Gunn also makes his imprint on the project. Following a grimy set of songs, we get a taste of the creative collage this project represents on Folie à Deux, which includes Gunn s percussive presence, Keisha Plum s abstract poetry and Conductor s ethereal production. The song is held together by the directness of M
Westside Gunn ofÂ
Pray For Haiti.
Machâs core-audience of investors has grown to expect. This time around, incredibly,Â
Mach has raised the bar once again, and sharing the stage with perennial allyÂ
Westside Gunn, we can expect that investor base to expand significantly.
âMach and I cooked up a Hip-Hop classic withÂ
Pray For HaitiÂ
Westside Gunn asserted!
Pray For Haiti also acts as a charitable vehicle with 20% of the proceeds going toward theÂ
PRAY FOR HAITI TRUST FUND, which will improve schools in Port-au-Prince, Haiti.
âI had a lot of fun makingÂ
Pray For Haiti. We travelled some, and made some great memories along the way. But thereâs another reason beyond the music why this album is specialâ Mach-Hommy commented.
