Captain Murphy Reveals Identity as Flying Lotus

Ever since mysterious, cartoony rapper Captain Murphy issued his incredible Duality, the quest to learn his real identity has been a big one. While names like Tyler, the Creator were thrown into the ring, the biggest guess fans had was that Captain Murphy was a side-project of beat-maker Flying Lotus.

Well, those fans were right, as Captain Murphy played his debut live show at the Los Angeles club The Airliner last night (November 28). A photo of the set, which can be seen above courtesy of Complex, clearly shows that it was FlyLo.

In response to the revelation, Flying Lotus (real name Steve Ellison) tweeted a simple "HahAhHAHaaha" before retweeting some Captain Murphy content.

Duality can be downloaded in its entirety here. If you want to do some remixing, the mixtape's instrumental tracks are available here.
