SpaceGhostPurrp : SpaceGhostPurrp Unveils New Video & Announces European Shows
10th May 2012

SpaceGhostPurrp last night dropped a video for 'The Black God', the first to appear in support of his forthcoming album. Filmed in and around his hometown of Miami, FL, it's everything you could ask for with urban decay, gold teeth, cash, fire, girls and a card game all ticked off. The video was conceived by the mysterious producer/rapper himself and you can view it on his YouTube channel here. To coincide, a free download of the instrumental track is available below.

The album tracklisting and full title are also being announced today. As previously confirmed, his debut commercial release, out June 11/12th, culls both new and old material from his wildly prolific output, tracking the early years of one of rawest new talents around. Entitled Mysterious Phonk: The Chronicles of SpaceGhostPurrp, all fourteen tracks have been rerecorded and mixed in Miami, FL, mastered at Abbey Road in London, and for the first time heard in all their syrup-thick glory. The tracklisting reads as below:

1. Mystikal Maze
2. Bringing The Phonk
3. Osiris of the East
4. Suck A Dick 2012
5. Get Yah Head Bust
6. Been Fweago
