Octavian's SPACEMAN was one of the best projects to drop in 2018. The London rapper/producer continued to drop heat since then with collaborations with Take A Daytrip, Diplo, A$AP Ferg, and more. Now, he returns with his latest mixtape, Endorphins which includes the previously released singles "Bet" with Skepta and Michael Phantom, as well as "Lit" with A$AP Ferg. The rapper's latest project was recorded between Los Angeles and London which is evident from the different influences throughout the project.
In addition to Skepta, A$AP Ferg, and Michael Phanton, Octavian also nabs Smokepurpp, Theophilis London, Jessie Ware, J Rick, and ABRA.
