Growing up in Florida, Whitney was originally a guitar player for hardcore and doom metal bands.[3] Whitney moved to Los Angeles, California after starting his career as a rapper eventually finding success in the underground.
Eric Whitney was born 15 April 1991 in Lake Worth, Florida to parents from New York. Whitney grew up in West Palm Beach, Florida. As a teenager, he was in several bands and played the guitar which introduced him to music. He also played football whilst in High School, saying he was practically forced to by his father, who died when Whitney was seventeen.
Whitney was introduced to rap music when he was the guitarist in the hardcore punk band Nemesis and a bandmate introduced him to Memphis rap.
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. Meeting up with JGRXXN, Whitney joined his collective Schemaposse which included artists such as the now-deceased Lil Peep and Craig Xen.
In April 2016, Schemaposse disbanded leaving Whitney not associated with any group. Whitney eventually began to associate with the popular underground group $uicideboy$ and fellow Florida rapper Pouya. 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
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Me Solo The Ghoste
Been bustin' caps, swingin' bats
Sike po-po on the coast
They ain't a joke, ain't even close
So I propose a toast
To all the foes at my show
Crooked like Stick n' Poke
But if you don't give a fuck
You in the game, try my team
Then you shit out of luck
Scary boy, quit talkin', you ain't big enough
To beef with me, B-IZ, D-A microphone killa
They call me Ghostemane
Low-key white as ghost
Always kick it alone, call me
I won't pick up the phone
(Better watch your hoe, mane)
She just won't leave me alone
And I won't fuck with a thirsty chick
So just leave her at home
They call me Ghostemane
Low-key white as ghost
Always kick it alone, call me
I won't pick up the phone
(Better watch your hoe, mane)
She just won't leave me alone
And I won't fuck with a thirsty chick
So just leave her at home
Keep my skin thick, like the butt on my chick
Because nobody give a shit what
You say when you spit
They only see what you wear and
The shade of your skin
If you're the same shade as them
They won't give you a spin
Don't fabricate what you say
People see through the haze
Don't fabricate what you say
Put a number on your days
They call me Ghostemane
Low-key white as ghost
Always kick it alone, call me
I won't pick up the phone
(Better watch your hoe, mane)
She just won't leave me alone
And I won't fuck with a thirsty chick
So just leave her at home
They call me Ghostemane
Low-key white as ghost
Always kick it alone, call me
I won't pick up the phone
(Better watch your hoe, mane)
She just won't leave me alone
And I won't fuck with a thirsty chick
So just leave her at home
In "Mercury's Song," GHOSTEMANE addresses his status as a white underground rapper (he refers to himself as "Low-key white as ghost"). He brags about his skills and his ability to hold his own against other rappers. He talks about how people judge him based on his appearance and the color of his skin, and how he won't conform to their expectations or change his style. He advises listeners to be true to themselves and not to fabricate what they say or do. The chorus emphasizes his preference for solitude and his refusal to engage with "thirsty" women who try to latch onto him.

All the underground cats call
Me Solo The Ghoste
I'm known as Solo The Ghoste by all the underground artists.
Been bustin' caps, swingin' bats
Sike po-po on the coast
They ain't a joke, ain't even close
So I propose a toast
To all the foes at my show
Crooked like Stick n' Poke
I've been involved in violent confrontations with the police, and I'm mocking my enemies who pose as a threat to me.
Love and hate, that's all the same
But if you don't give a fuck
You in the game, try my team
Then you shit out of luck
Scary boy, quit talkin', you ain't big enough
To beef with me, B-IZ, D-A microphone killa
Love and hate are irrelevant, but if you're not committed to the game, you'll fail. If you try to compete against me, you'll inevitably lose.

People refer to me as Ghostemane, and I prefer to keep my own company. I won't answer the phone, especially if it's involving a girl who's obsessed with me.
Keep my skin thick, like the butt on my chick
Because nobody give a shit what
You say when you spit
They only see what you wear and
The shade of your skin
If you're the same shade as them
They won't give you a spin
Don't fabricate what you say
People see through the haze
Don't fabricate what you say
Put a number on your days
I don't let people's opinions about my appearance or what I say affect me, and I encourage others to be genuine and honest about themselves. People will only give you a chance if you're similar to them, and being fake won't get you far.
