Seattle rapper Sol always has a smooth style to his hip hop sound, but its what makes his music so easy to listen to. It's been some time since we heard new music as Sol is on his own life missions, but he wrote this on the night train to Bangalore, India, and recorded in Chennai, Tamil Nadu, India, while severely sick from food poisoning. The beat was produced by The Zillas ( Elan Wright & Nima Skeemz ) in Seattle, showing the power of the Internet being able to create music [...]
Coming out of nowhere on a song with Earl Sweatshirt, Captain Murphy first appeared in style. Appropriately matching the tone of the Flying Lotus produced “Between Friends”, CM also managed to deliver a competing verse with an established sweatshirted rapper known for tricky wordplay and upstaging his guest spots. No pictures, no interviews, no performances, no identity. This is how Murph rolls. Compare him to Banksy, compare him to Batman (see track “The Killing Joke”), whatever. This guy does not yet want his name revealed, and the enigma is a very important aspect of Captain Murphy’s [...]

Who the hell is Captain Murphy ? At this point your guess is probably as good as mine. After making his (assuming that the enigmatic figure is a he ) formal introduction to the greater listening masses with his appearance on Flying Lotus 's single "Between's Friends" alongside Earl Sweathshirt , Captain Murphy has subsequently unveiled two solo records the interestingly titled 'Mighty Morphin Foreskin" and "The Ritual", the latter of which Murphy recently release an animated video for. [...]
Still no word on this mysterious MC, other than his/her/their penchant for Madvillain-esque sampling, and that it's probably more than one rapper. Now, however, a new Murphy track has surfaced. This one is called "The Ritual" and once again contains references to cults, witchcraft, and demons, as well as Murphy rapping over a Jay Electronica beat. According to Sunset In The Rear View , it comes off a project entitled Du∆lity , further hinting that the man behind Murphy is one with whom we are familiar ( Earl ?) Listen to the track below: [...]
I am 99% certain that Captain Murphy is Flying Lotus , but "The Ritual" features the same Just Blaze beat as Jay Electronica 's "Dear Moleskine" and it's throwing things off a little. I guess we'll all find out when press for Du∆lity starts picking up in the near future. Captain Murphy - The Ritual

My friends, we have a mystery on our hands. If you take the microscope and look further into this case, Flying Lotus recently featured an artist named Captain Murphy for ' Between Friends '. Some say that it is Tyler, The Creator while I believe it is actually Colonel Mustard in the library with a candle. Yes Watson, it could be anyone. Anyways, you can hear a new track from Captain Murphy below titled 'The Ritual'. Wait, isn't Captain Murphy the old guy on Sealab 2021? That show was [...]

Saiu hoje essa música nova do Captain Murphy. O rapper foi apresentado por Flying Lotus semana passada na faixa Between Friends , com participação de Earl. Por enquanto ninguém sabe se ele é de fato o alter ego de alguém ou apenas um rapper novo. Em The Ritual , Murphy usa o fundo de Dear Moleskine , do Jay Electronica, produzida por Just Blaze.
Our newest insight into the world of mysterious, virtually unknown emcee Captain Murphy is "The Ritual," over Just Blaze & Jay Electronica' "Dear Moleskine." Since emerging alongside Flying Lotus & Earl Sweatshirt on last week's "Between Friends" , people have been speculating about the identity of Captain Murphy. The online consensus is that he's the sum of parts of Tyler, The Creator, Flying Lotus and Earl Sweatshirt with vocal effects. He has confirmed, however, that he is in fact not Tyler or Lil Zane . Whatever the case, we're definitely looking out [...]
Ever since Flying Lotus dropped his track " Between Friends ", which featured Earl Sweatshirt and someone named Captain Murphy , everyone has been asking one question: Who is Captain Murphy? After featuring on that song, the anonymous emcee has since released two solo tracks, the first being "Mighty Morphin Foreskin" and the second being "The Ritual". People have speculated that it could be Tyler, The Creator, but the lyrical prowess displayed in these tracks is more than Tyler has ever been able to pull off.

Who is Captain Murphy ? This is a question a lot of people will be mulling over in the coming months. The mysterious rapper first appeared on "Between Friends" alongside Flying Lotus and Odd Future's semiautomatic spitter Earl Sweatshirt , and today he releases a solo record called "Faithful." Rumors and speculation have already began to surface online that Murphy could either be the secret alias of Flying Lotus himself or even a pitch shifted Tyler The, Creator , although the lyrical content just doesn't feel like something the latter would put out. [...]
So. We still don't know who Captain Murphy is, though most folks seem to think it's a rapping alias of Flying Lotus . Whoever it is, he's making some warped, forward-thinking hip-hop and we're officially addicted. Sure, the whole mystery thing is especially intriguing, but the music is dope, too. On his latest track, the Captain goes in over Just Blaze's "Dear Moleskine" beat for "The Ritual", an oddball rap journey if there ever was one. Download: Captain Murphy - "The Ritual" [Mediafire]
Tyler The Creator The mysterious Captain Murphy shares new cut "The Ritual." To recap, we first heard from Murph when he rapped along with Earl Sweatshirt on Flying Lotus' new song "Between Friends." Then came the Madvillainy inspired (indeed, Murph's YouTube handle is "CaptainMurphyVillain" ) “Mighty Morphin Foreskin.” "The Ritual," hopping on a beefed up Jay Electronica beat , more than ever sounds like Tyler.
