Big Ghost’s Week 3 Rant:
Ayo whattup this the illustrious Hands of Zeus aka Cocaine Biceps aka Thor Molecules aka Big Ghost the panty melter namsayin. Son…I was peepin this joint that was on the ipod that came from the heavens that the dragon blessed me with nahmean. The shit had some gorgeous piano chords playin b…as tho the keys was bein stroked by the hands of God Almighty hisself namsayin. Ayo son this shit had angels singin on it…and a voice began to speak to me I listened namsayin…cuz I thought it was the voice of the White Jesus. I listed to what the White Jesus was sayin…I was focused b…cuz I had thought I had been chosen by the Lord forreal forreal. But then I wasnt able to interpret his message…it was too Biblical…it was too deep for my mental b. My emotions began to drown my soul nahmean. I was immersed in the holy message of what I had thought was the voice of the Messiah n I wasnt able to diagnose the scripture like that. The god felt sorrow b. That shit hurt my aura…tears burst out my wig as I felt the hands of a hundred cherubs pat my arm….(pause)…n one began to speak to me telepathically n shit… sayin “nah chill b…you was chosen…you was chosen my nigga”. So I arose…n I knew what I had to do. I showed to one of the snow niggas I be cool with… one of my cream brothers…Brody. And so it was that Brody came to listen the joint…n son said to me “Dude…that aint no white man’s version of the Messiah… thats Beck motherfucker. Durrrrrrr…”. Word is bond…I began to nod my head n stroke my beard…n I responded to son…”Who the fuck is Beck yo? Ayo n also if you say some durrr shit to me again Imma duff you in the muthafuckin face…thats my word…Imma slap you wit the force of a thousand elephants n turn the bones in ya face to dust b…thats my word.”….or some shit like that n whatever whatever. And so it was written…I had became educated thru the youtube videos that my Caucasinite homie showed me…n I had began to understand namsayin. I was brought forth to the light towards the righteous path nahmean. And even tho what I had thought was a personal message from the White Jesus of Nazareth turned out to be jussa feature by the muthafucka who made the joint “Loser” back in the early 90s…I felt enlightened. And so it was written… - Big Ghost
The artwork, “Trophies,” for the week 3 track is yet another piece by the ever-talented Sam Spratt. (Love the D + G = CG on the chalkboard, by the way, as well as the kids going to camp. And is that “The Younger I Get” scribbled out at the bottom of the board? I think so.)
“American Chariot” early stage line-drawing + finished cover art I did for Childish Gambino/Donald Glover.

The artwork, “American Chariot,” for the week 2 track is yet another piece by the ever-talented Sam Spratt.
It all starts with a sketch. Early stage line-drawing + finished cover art I did for Childish Gambino.

“Hope” - Single cover art commissioned by Childish Gambino aka Donald Glover by Sam Spratt

It’s been a bit surreal getting to work directly with one of my favorite actors/comedians/musicians. This Rockwellian scene of Black Americana is only the beginning, stay tuned. Download the awesome track “Untitled” for free in the link above (Seriously, it’s fucking amazing).
Wow, I can’t believe I overlooked this. The presumed cover art for Gambino’s Untitled was commissioned by one of the best, most popular artists on Tumblr and in the art world. Sam Spratt has created some truly wonderful pieces, and I suggest you go peruse more of his work.
