And it isn’t cheap…

Mach-Hommy is releasing his 2021 album Balens Cho on vinyl this September.

The album is available in three variants — standard, ‘Out The Mud’, and ‘Hot Candle’ — all featuring different perks and “bonus mystery item(s)”.

The variants are available for $222.22, $333.33, and $444.44 apiece.

It’s not the first time Mach-Hommy has released records for significantly higher than average, with Notorious Dump Legends retailing for $187, and Duck CZN: Chinese Algebra for $111.11.

This sits within a larger trend of cult hip-hop acts shopping limited wax releases at inflated prices — Roc Marciano & The Alchemist recently listed an edition of The Elephant Man’s Bones for $150.

Some fans at least seem to be willing to shell out. A press release accompanying the Balens Cho news claims that Mach-Hommy sold over $1 million worth of vinyl last year, all without the help of traditional distributors or retailers.

Alongside Balens Cho making its vinyl debut, Mach-Hommy just released a new album called Dollar Menu 4.
