Santogold is now Santigold because Santogold was being sued by Santo Gold.
Complicated? Not as much as it sounds.The original Santo Gold has been around a lot longer than the recently famed up Santogold.
Santo Gold is an infomercial jeweller and creator of the science fiction movie Blood Circus.
Santo Gold made the movie back in 1985 so he certainly has dibs on the name compared to the career of Santogold, which only started in 203 and only really blossomed last year.
Santogold’s real name is Santi White, so the change from Santo to Santi is no big deal (except when googling her).
That is the story behind the mystery folks. Santogold is now Santigold and Santo Gold lived happily ever after.
