2014–2015: ''Intoxxxicated'' and other projects

On January 19, 2014, SpaceGhostPurrp released a compilation titled ''58 Blunts of Purrp'', consisting of his own songs, hard to find tracks, and some he either produced or had a feature on. On February 28, 2014, SpaceGhostPurrp released an 18-track mixtape called ''B.M.W. 2: IntoXXXicated'', which included no features and returned to the lo-fi sound of his earlier mixtapes. Subsequently, he released a slightly different version of "B.M.W. 2: IntoXXXicated" that had tempos of certain songs changed, and while the overall sound quality was slightly improved it still retained much of the lo-fi qualities as before. A few months later it was remastered, had some tracks removed, a new track added, and released as an album on iTunes under the name ''IntoXXXicated''. Early in 2015, SpaceGhostPurrp released two new projects, the first of which was titled ''Dark Angel'' and released on January 13. The second project, a 5-track EP called ''Money Mendoza'' was released on January 25. Later that year, SpaceGhostPurrp left Miami, and moved to Atlanta, where he made music with artists such as Father and OG Maco. In April 2015, SpaceGhostPurrp released two compilations. One was titled ''VENENO'', it being an extended version of the EP released earlier that year, and the other was titled ''PYRO Era'', consisting mostly of loose tracks released in 2014 and 2015. On the 9th of May, a new EP called ''Richest Revenge'' under the moniker, Money Mendoza, was released through his Instagram account. In May 2015, Raider Klan released ''Raider Klan Records: The Mixtape'' which featured some production and vocals from SpaceGhostPurrp. On June 24, 2015, Dej Loaf released a song featuring Young Thug titled "Shawty", co-produced by Young Roc which featured a sample of the song "RAIDER PRAYERs instrumental off of SpaceGhostPurrp's album ''Mysterious Phonk: The Chronicles of SPACEGHOSTPURRP''. SpaceGhostPurrp was uncredited by the producer resulting in a minor conflict via Twitter which was soon resolved peacefully.

in New York City. SpaceGhostPurrp began producing music for ASAP Rocky who was a big fan of SpaceGhostPurrp's music, including "Keep it G" from Rocky's breakout mixtape, '' Live. Love. A$AP''. SpaceGhostPurrp and ASAP Mob remained friends until SpaceGhostPurrp had an argument with ASAP Twelvyy on Twitter in December 2011. This led to Rocky dissing Raider Klan on a song called "Yao Ming (Remix)". That release from Rocky furthered the Twitter fight between SpaceGhostPurrp and ASAP Mob, but the fight was short lived when other ASAP Mob members spoke for SpaceGhostPurrp's sake. About a week afterward, Rocky dropped "Pretty Flacko" as a shout-out to the Trillwave genre and SpaceGhostPurrp. SpaceGhostPurrp and ASAP Mob members were on good terms again up until April 2012 when ASAP Mob played an unreleased SpaceGhostPurrp track at Coachella, leading to another short-lived argument ending on bad terms, this time between SpaceGhostPurrp and ASAP Yams. Through the rest of 2012 and early 2013, ASAP Mob used some of SpaceGhostPurrp's music production without giving him credit to make the tracks "I Need Money" (which later became "Max Julien") and "Suddenly" by ASAP Rocky. The feud was quiet and they seemed to be on good terms until former Raider Klan member Stoops was assaulted by

in June 2012. This caused the feud between SpaceGhostPurrp and Twelvyy to reach its peak and eventually extend to the entirety of Raider Klan and ASAP Mob. The feud quickly turned physical in November 2012 when affiliates of Raider Klan alongside SpaceGhostPurrp attacked members of ASAP Mob outside Miami. This led to ASAP Nast calling the police and SpaceGhostPurrp being arrested. In March 2013, SpaceGhostPurrp and affiliates once again attacked ASAP Mob in their home city of New York. The feud quickly began to die down in terms of aggression and took to social media. According to SpaceGhostPurrp, the feud with ASAP Mob was resolved before the death of ASAP Yams in 2015, but ASAP Bari prevented SpaceGhostPurrp and ASAP from reuniting, thus perpetuating the conflict. In May 2025, SpaceGhostPurrp announced that he and ASAP Rocky ended their beef on
