Exciting news is on the horizon as Black Thought and Mach-Hommy, two of hip-hop’s most formidable MCs, are teaming up for a collaborative album. Mach-Hommy confirmed the highly anticipated project in his latest newsletter, revealing that he has several projects in the works, including one with Black Thought, humorously dubbed “Black-Hommy.”
While specific details regarding the release date and album title remain under wraps, fans are already buzzing with anticipation. The duo first hinted at a collaboration during an interview with Pigeons & Planes back in 2024, where Black Thought emphasized the importance of working with artists who match his lyrical intensity. He expressed the need for collaboration to serve the culture, stating, “When you find somebody that’s on that same type time, it’s going to best serve the culture for y’all to collab.”
Mach-Hommy echoed this sentiment, sharing that they have been building chemistry in the studio, and he has a dedicated folder ready for Black Thought. Their collaborative energy was previously showcased on tracks like “Copy Cold” from Mach’s 2024 album #RICHAXXHAITIAN and “Pravda,” featuring Your Old Droog.
The mutual respect between the two artists is evident, with Black Thought naming Mach-Hommy as one of the five rappers deserving more credit during an appearance on Questlove’s Questlove Supreme podcast. He praised Mach-Hommy’s ability to blend a classic sensibility with a cutting-edge approach, especially in connection with the Griselda movement.
As fans eagerly await more information, this collaboration marks an exciting chapter for both artists. For Mach-Hommy, this will be his first album in two years, while Black Thought continues to build on his impressive legacy following his recent project Glorious Game with El Michels Affair.
