Whitney graduated from university after studying astrophysics and was eventually employed in a position earning $65,000 annually.In 2015, Whitney moved to Los Angeles, California due to his music not thriving in Southern Florida, giving up his employment at the same time.

Pouya released the video for "1000 Rounds" with Ghostemane in April 2017.The video quickly went viral and as of May 2018, has nearly 9 million views.
In 2018 Whitney released his 10th album, "N / O / I / S / E" (No One Is Safe from Evil). The album has a very dark and aggressive style and it deals a lot with self-harm, self-mutilation, agoraphobia, and many other issues Ghostemane has dealt with personally. N / O / I / S / E was released by surprise on 10th October 2018, as it was supposed to drop on 17th October of the same year.

Ghostemane Lyrics
I've seen the worst of humanity
I know my worth, no matter what you say to me
But now I’m all in doubt
What have you done to me?
I wanna sort it out, I need a way out
I can't breathe with your grip on me
You used to be for me the biggest escape
But now, you are just another name
That I can't see, I can’t hear, I can't speak
Put it all behind me, now I'm getting away
Creating nothing but distance
I'm tryin' to make myself a better man
So stay away
I know my worth, no matter what you say to me
But now I’m all in doubt
What have you done to me?
I wanna sort it out, I need a way out
I can't breathe with your grip on me
You used to be for me the biggest escape
But now, you are just another name
That I can't see, I can’t hear, I can't speak
Put it all behind me, now I'm getting away
I'm tryin' to make myself a better man
So stay away

Lyrics:
I've seen the worst
Of humanity
I know my worth
No matter what you say to me
But now I'm all in doubt
What have you done to me?
I wanna sort it out
I need a way out
I can't breathe
With your grip on me
You used to be for me the biggest escape
But now you are just another name
That I can't hear, I can't see, I can't speak
Put it all behind me now I'm getting away
Creating nothing but distance
I'm tryin to make myself a better man
So STAY AWAAAYYYYYYY

From nothing we have risen and from nothing we still rise
Take your life back
Fight, fight
Will you fight to take your life back?
Ask yourself what's truly yours in life
Are you in control or someone's slave?
All that you cherish, all that you love
In the blink of an eye can be taken from you
In moments of tragedy we bond
And in weakness clarity thrives
I've been blessed with the inspiration
To take what little I have and always strive
Sometimes surviving is all that you can do
I never claimed to have all the answers or the solutions
My satisfaction is knowing, that my desires will not be killed
With a readiness to defend what is mine and never compromise
The foundation of our lives
Built on hollow ground
We must unlearn the prejudice
We must unlearn the lies
I've seen the calloused
I know the jaded
I've been disheartened and I've lost control
But I never crumbled in the face of adversity
And I always force myself to believe
The foundation of our lives
Built on hollow ground
We must unlearn the prejudice
We must unlearn the lies
Are you willing to fight?
Are you willing?
Take your life back
Fight fight
Will you fight to take your life back?

But now you are just another name
That I can't hear, I can't see, I can't speak
Put it all behind me now I'm getting away

Ghostemane needs more songs like this.
velhonen
I strongly agree with this. Sounds promising.

Baader Meinhof. it's one of his main side projects. A black metal band he fronts. Beyond that, he got his start playing guitar in the hardcore punk band Nemesis. He didn't start rapping or really even listening to rap until around 2013 when a friend introduced him to it.

@smward87 gotta check that out.

SHAPE CSGO
Haven't listened to Ghoste in a while, he's definitely changed a whole lot.
Bleak December
They decided to do a short Hardcore ep and it's pretty good, he still makes his normal dark rap

Nah son, he has gone back, briefly, to his roots.
