It was all good just a week ago, but now SpaceGhostPurrp and his Raider Klan have fallen out with A$AP Rocky and the A$AP Mob.

Purrp — who was responsible for producing Rocky's "Keep It G" and "Pretty Flacko" and rhymed alongside Rock on "Purple Swag: Chapter 2" — sat with MTV News in May and broke down his relationship with the A$AP Mob, but last week, he revealed in a YouTube video that their union is no longer.

"We Raider Klan, man. We got our own sh-- going on. And that's how the f--- it is. We ain't A$AP," SpaceGhost said in the video, which has since been taken down. "I showed love to them n---as last year and some sh-- went down and we don't f--- with each other no more."

It was a different story from the one Purrp told MTV News when he sat down with us in May. "Me and the Mob, we reached out to each other through the Internet. We showed love to each other. We had a good time," he said of his A$AP relationship, which has since soured. "I came up to New York and met up with him, we got to know each other real well, and then we just became a little family.

"I'm affiliated with A$AP. If I see him, we still do our handshake, we still got love, we're real close homeys," he added.

Still, Purrp — who released his debut album, Mysterious Phonk: The Chronicles of SpaceGhostPurrp, last week — has always made a clear distinction between the A$AP Mob and his Raider Klan crew, which originated in his hometown of Miami.

The beef is said to have started after Rocky's groupmate, A$AP Twelvyy, got into an altercation with Matt Stoops from Purrp's Raider Klan. Music site Mostly Junk Food has posted screen shots of deleted SpaceGhost tweets in which he accuses Twelvyy of attacking Stoops.

While the beef does sound serious, Purrp told MTV News of a misunderstanding that he and Wiz Khalifa had prior to working together on Wiz's Taylor Allderdice mixtape. Maybe after a conversation, he and Rocky can reach a similar accord.
