It features Del Tha Funky Homosapien on the mic and is produced in large part by Dan the Automator.Д¬onceptually, the song is part of the Gorillaz canon/mythology, with Del Tha Funky Homosapian playing Del Tha Ghost Rapper, a spirit possessing Russel, the bandвЂ™s drummer, whose eyes are clouded over with the spirits of his friends who were killed in a drive-by shooting in Brooklyn.
