del the funky homosapien collaborated on two songs on the album, "clint eastwood" and "rock the house", both of which became singles and videos and achieved chart success. del was not originally slated to collaborate on these songs. by the time del came onto the project, the album was already finished, and phi life cypher had recorded verses for "clint eastwood"; but when del finished making "deltron 3030" with dan the automator, automator asked if he could stay in the studio a little longer to record new verses for the gorillaz songs. for the purposes of the music videos and the gorillaz storyline canon, del performed as gorillaz character "del the ghost rapper", who was said to be a spirit that was hiding from death within the band's drummer, russel hobbs. del later commented in an interview on the success of "clint eastwood" by saying that he actually wrote the song with the book "how to write a hit song", a book that he bought with a coupon his mother gave him. after the song went platinum he gave the plaque to his mother. as part of russel hobbs' back-story, the character of del was one of russel's friends that was gunned down in a drive-by shooting, whose ghost possessed russel.
