Ghost is a California raised gender non-conforming artist, born July 1991 in Riverside California. Learning from the greats, Ghost started honing their storytelling abilities by listening to rappers such as 2Pac, The Nortorious B.I.G, Nas, and Ludacris. When Ghost decided to make a YouTube channel and start rapping they were heavily inspired by Logic, who opened up Ghost’s eyes to the fact that peace, love and positivity could make money in the rap game. Now listening to artists such as Kid Cudi, J Cole and CHIKA Ghost has crafted themselves into a Swiss army knife of flows, easily able to go from a hard hitting rap verse to a melodic hook. A Champion for mental health, Ghost’s lyrics speak about their struggle with their own mental health and the darkness it brings, while trying to spread the message of positivity and acceptance. As a parent Ghost’s Children are a big inspiration for their music, much of what Ghost talks about is what they want to see change in the future for their kids. In 2021 Ghost met Lincoln, Nebraska based rapper Jinx and his Brother, Producer Cryptic-X, and immediately hit it off with both of them. 7 months later Ghost took a flight out to Lincoln and founded Killing Field Records with Jinx and while recording their first Album at Cryptic-X’s studio. Not showing any signs of slowing down, Ghost made a big move in April 2022 and moved from California to Lincoln, Nebraska to run the label. On August 7th, 2022 Ghost released their first studio album "Ghost Stories" featuring a beat from Cryptic-X on the opening track. We are talking all about his new label in fact, his relationship with other musicians, skills and techniques to production and musical creativity, and much more.
