Signature

Markese Money Rolle (born April 1, 1991), who is known by his stage name SpaceGhostPurrp, is an American rapper and music producer from Miami, Florida. He is seen by many as a pioneer of modern hip hop and trap music. He is the founder of the hip hop group Raider Klan and a co-founder of the group BMB Deathrow.

SpaceGhostPurrp, also known as SGP, has worked with many successful artists who were part of Raider Klan, including Denzel Curry, Robb Banks, and Xavier Wulf. He gained a large following in the underground hip hop world through his mixtapes and his work with other artists. He has produced songs for famous musicians like Juicy J, Lil Uzi Vert, Wiz Khalifa, and the ASAP Mob. Since 2009, SGP has released over 60 mixtapes, albums, and EPs.

Early life

SpaceGhostPurrp was born in the Carol City neighborhood of Miami, Florida. He started rapping when he was only 5 years old and began producing music at age 13. He went to Silver Trail Middle School and Everglades High School. His family background is African-American, Bahamian, and Cuban. In 2019, he shared that he is on the autism spectrum.

Music career

Starting out and early mixtapes

In high school, SpaceGhostPurrp enjoyed skateboarding but decided to focus on a music career. He worked hard to graduate early so he could start making music. He created a YouTube channel in 2010 and began uploading his songs and videos.

In 2008, he formed the hip-hop group Raider Klan. He brought in many other rappers to join the group, such as Denzel Curry and Yung Simmie. He also worked with artist Lil Ugly Mane, who created the artwork for SGP's popular 2011 mixtape, Blackland Radio....

After the mixtape was released, SGP planned to release five more mixtapes. However, he moved to New York to work with the ASAP Mob. This new direction led him to create a different mixtape called G... of B..., which came out in 2012.

First album and collaborations

In early 2012, SpaceGhostPurrp signed a record deal with the British music label 4AD. He began remixing some of his older songs for his first official album. His early music often used interesting sounds, like train whistles and samples from video games like Mortal Kombat.

His debut album, Mysterious Phonk: Chronicles of SpaceGhostPurrp, was released on June 12, 2012. It included many remixed tracks from his earlier mixtapes. During this time, he also worked with rapper Juicy J and produced tracks for Wiz Khalifa and ASAP Rocky.

SGP also appeared as a guest on songs with other artists. These included Domo Genesis, The Alchemist, and Freddie Gibbs. In July 2012, he went on his first tour with the band Trash Talk. His song "The Black G..." was named one of the 50 best songs of 2012 by the music website Pitchfork.

Later projects

On January 19, 2014, SGP released a collection of songs called 58 Blunts of Purrp. A month later, he released a mixtape called B.M.W. 2: Into...icated. This project returned to the low-fidelity (or lo-fi) sound of his early work. It was later released as an album on iTunes under the name Into...icated.

In 2015, he released more music, including an EP called Dark Angel. He also moved to Atlanta and worked with artists there. In May 2015, Raider Klan released a group mixtape that featured some of SGP's production and vocals.

In 2016, SGP released a mixtape called Blackland Radio...: Pt 2 - Episode 1. His music collective, Black Money Boys Death Row (BMB), was praised by the magazine Tiny Mix Tapes for its unique sound. The magazine described BMB's music as a dark twist on early internet-era hip hop.

Influences and musical style

SpaceGhostPurrp has said that many artists have influenced him. These include Kanye West, Wiz Khalifa, Gucci Mane, Three 6 Mafia, Bone Thugs-N-Harmony, and DJ Screw. He is also a big fan of the Swedish metal band Meshuggah.

SGP's dark music style, which he calls "phonk", was inspired by growing up in Carol City. He often referred to his neighborhood as "Blackland" and used this theme in his mixtape Blackland Radio.... His stage name, SpaceGhostPurrp, comes from the cartoon character Space Ghost.
