The Alchemist & Hit-Boy Share Tracklist & Features For ‘Goldfish’ Album

The Alchemist and Hit-Boy have called on a few friends for their Goldfish album.

The dynamic duo have revealed the cover art, tracklist and features for their upcoming joint album, which is set to drop this Friday (October 24).

Clocking in at 15 songs, Goldfish boasts appearances from Havoc, Conway The Machine, Boldy James, Jay Worthy, Hit-Boy’s father Big Hit and multi-instrumentalist Johnathan Hulett.

Fans have already been treated to two tracks from the project in the form of “Business Merger” and the Havoc-assisted “Celebration Moments.”

Goldfish is not just a joining of forces between two of the best producers (and rappers) in the game today, though.

The album is accompanied by a short film of the same name starring both The Alchemist and Hit-Boy, as well as a host of accomplished actors such as Danny Trejo, Simon Rex, Rory Culkin, Blake Anderson and Gerald “Slink” Johnson.

The movie also marks the acting debuts of Conway The Machine, Lefty Gunplay and Big Twins, with Abteen Bagheri-Fard (A$AP Rocky “Peso”) in the director’s seat.

According to a press release, Goldfish follows “a squad of hit men disguised as carpet cleaners attempting to leave a life of crime in a chaotic flurry of events.”

The ambitious project adds to what’s already been a busy year for both The Alchemist and Hit-Boy.

The former has so far dropped two highly acclaimed projects with Freddie Gibbs (Alfredo 2) and Larry June and 2 Chainz (Life Is Beautiful), and has others with Erykah Badu (Abi & Alan), Yasiin Bey (Forensics) and Armand Hammer (Mercy) on the way.

Uncle Al has also lent his midas touch to Mobb Deep‘s comeback album Infinite — the duo’s first posthumous effort following the death of Prodigy in 2017 — as well as Jay Worthy‘s Once Upon a Time, Evidence‘s Unlearning Vol. 2 and billy woods‘ GOLLIWOG.

Hit-Boy, meanwhile, has been heating up in recent months thanks to collaborations with the likes of Jay Electronica, AzChike, 03 Greedo, Lefty Gunplay, TiaCorine and BabyTron.

Better yet, the “N*ggas In Paris” hitmaker is finally able to fully reap the rewards of his hard work after recently getting out of the predatory publishing deal he was locked in for almost 20 years — with the help of JAY-Z and Roc Nation co-founder Desiree Perez.

“Today … he helped secure my freedom from an 18 year publishing deal I was stuck in and I can’t thank him enough for pushing that thru,” Hit-Boy wrote on Instagram in July. “Much appreciation to Desiree Perez for also making this happen the love and respect on my end runs deep and I appreciate all the help frr.”

He added: “Today I am a free man, I feel like I just got out the pen after an 18 year sentence and have a chance to start over with more knowledge than I ever had. my best has yet to be seen God is Great!”
