Hit-Boy and The Alchemist Drop Joint Album “Goldfish” Two of hip-hop’s most respected producers, Hit-Boy and The Alchemist, are stepping out of the studio shadows and into full artist mode with their new album Goldfish, arriving October 24. Instead of only supplying beats for other stars, they are front and center. The rollout includes the album itself, a short film, and a lead single that shows both producers trading bars and crafting beats for one another. The creative chemistry is impossible to ignore. Why This Collaboration Is Special Hit-Boy and The Alchemist come from different corners of the hip-hop landscape.
  • The Alchemist built his legacy with gritty, underground classics and elite lyricists.
  • Hit-Boy has dominated the mainstream with major chart-topping hits and award-winning production.
Together, they combine raw hip-hop roots with polished, cinematic execution. Their decision to rap throughout the project adds a fresh layer, proving they are more than just producers behind the boards. What to Expect from “Goldfish” This isn’t a simple beat-tape.
Expect:
• Story-driven creativity supported by the upcoming short film
• Hard-hitting drums, soulful textures and clever wordplay
• A curated lineup of high-profile features thanks to both of their long-standing industry relationships
• A bold example of producers leading their own narrative instead of playing a background role Why This Release Matters Goldfish represents a shift in how producer-artists move in the industry. They are showing that owning the music, the visuals, and the rollout can build a stronger brand and higher long-term value. It is a blueprint for creators looking to build their own IP instead of only supporting others.
