Santogold's New Name: Santigold

thumbnail icon: Santogold's New Name: Santigold

For a minute it looked like it was going to be just "Santi," but she's officially decided to hold on to the Gold. Here's the press release that heralds the change:

Change the graffiti on the bathroom wall, get your tattoo fixed, get your t-shirt airbrushed and change the name on your year end list- Santogold is now Santigold. She's not telling you why, that's just how it is. No unpronounceable symbol, no numbers where they shouldn't be, no random capitalization, just plain ass Santigold so remember that.

She's not telling you why, but this is probably why. He's a real piece of work:

Yeesh.
