Newsflash for those of you who might have missed it (I did at first), but Santogold is no more. The artist has officially changed her name to Santigold to allegedly avoid a lawsuit from a similarly named artist whose name is Santo Gold.
Santigold’s former Myspace page (myspace.com/santogold) has already been taken down and replaced with a new one. Her official website however is still up at the old domain name but is said to be in the process of moving over to the new name soon. And as you might expect with a name change from a big artist, her Wikipedia page has already been updated and forwarded to reflect the change.
I think the new name is fitting especially since her name is Santi White anyway. It makes more sense to me that she’d be called Santigold. So there you go, now you know.
