The Blueprint is Ready: Mike D Opens Official Pre-Orders for New Solo Album

The countdown to a historic hip-hop moment is officially on. Following the explosive release of his debut solo single "Switch Up" and a string of raw, packed-out club shows, Beastie Boys legend Mike D has officially opened the gates to his next chapter.

The official pre-order store for Michael Diamond’s highly anticipated debut solo album is now live.

For fans who have been waiting over a decade to see what a solo Mike D record sounds like, the wait is almost over. The official launch at store.miked5d.com marks the first time a member of the Beastie Boys has put a full-length studio project up for grabs since 2011.

What’s Dropping in the Official Store?

True to his roots as a crate-digger and vinyl enthusiast, Mike D isn’t just dropping these tracks on streaming platforms. The pre-order rollout is heavily focused on physical, tangible media for real collectors.

The initial launch includes:

• Limited Edition Gatefold Vinyl: Premium heavyweight wax featuring exclusive album artwork and inner-sleeve liner notes detailing the studio sessions with Carter Lang and his sons' band, Very Nice Person.
• Classic Digipak CDs & Cassettes: A nod straight to the 90s golden era tape-deck culture.
• Exclusive Album Merch Bundles: Limited-run target items celebrating the album launch.

Say "Thank You" to an Architect

This solo record isn't just a collection of tracks—it’s a living celebration of an artist who helped construct the very architecture of alternative hip-hop, skate culture, and street style. From the raw punk-rock energy of early New York to global stadium tours, Mike D's blueprint is woven directly into the fabric of everything we do here at OMFnG.

If you’re heading over to lock in your physical copy of the record, make sure your rotation is set for the upcoming live dates.
