so happy I just discovered this. one of my favorite things about slug is he has made so much damn music I'm always running into something that's old but new to me and it's fucking fantastic
Welcome everyone finds what they need in due time I found slug at 21 and still listening at 40. Special to find bangers that you don't grow out of but instead they grow with you
"....but the sun will come out tomorrow!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" man i miss these days flip, my peers never caught this a decade ago... thanks for the upload. love from South Africa, Soweto
Remember listening to this song back in the fall of ‘16. From then on been hearing it ever since. It’s a pretty amazing song when walking around city during the colder months
But that’s Slug and the dude Formerly known as Spawn! 2 absolutely wicked Emcees of their time…. Eyedea RIP but he was also a massive part of the Rhymesayers Entertainment
still hard that verse about Andre from slug is one of the most well written verses of all time so smooth "One sets the standard, the weak randomly follow Space ain’t shit, some kid will take your place tomorrow The cycle never stops cause you can recycle Styrofoam I still see Andre nowadays, he fucks with microphones" 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
@@ChefinKron Andre is the "cool guy". So whatever he does or likes becomes the "standart" and the others follow him mindlessly. But what Andre doesn't understand it that some other "cooler guy" will replace him in the near future and all of his followers will hop on to the next standart and cool thing. The last lines are metaphorical, just straight on point - styrofoam is one of those materials and garbages that doesn't dissolve in the nature and it can't be recycled. This means that the cycle of the "cool guys" will never stop and they will never learn. But life itself is the greatest teacher, because now Andre doesn't seem so cool as in high school as he does some low end job for a living (though "fucks with microphones" could be that he is a rapper, not 100% sure).
I was in 5th grade when my sister was around high school I was a very bland kid at the time and she gave me this tape filled with a bunch of tracks with this on here and this song has always was there for me in my darkest days
Shout out to atmosphere o remember when I first got introduced to em a while back, one of the most talented groups in all of hip hop I my opinion. This track in pertuctalur is one of the real songs o ever hear, the beat, the lyrics, the message, its tracks like this that made me fall in love with hip hop all together, peace
if more people listened to music like this, with meaning, the world would be so much less corrupt. i mean look at hpw atmospheres fans are generally peaceful and chill, what if everybody could be that way??
WOAH! Over 254k view?! Thank you listening to one of my favorite Independent and the hometown heroes, Atmosphere! Although I'm in Seattle for a career change, I do miss Southside Minneapolis.
i've been roaming through the atmosphere world n this is another song helping me through my best friends suicide. only a slug n ant can get me thru it.
It took a toll on me. Knowing that he discourages fellow fans of hip-hop to start rapping and producing hip-hop. I took a look at this track and when he says the A&R got over thinking there was some evil afoot and to let him go, he realized that they lied to him.
It ain’t how you die, it’s how you breathe It ain’t what you take, it’s what you leave and conceive What you got is nothing if your soul don’t represent it Present it, it ain’t where you’re from, it’s where you been, kid
So glad for the 41 non heads who tried it and ran the other away. Slug and this style most won't leave bderstand just like he says in the track your soul won't/can't represent it.
they lied, it ain't how you die it's how you breathe, it ain't what you take it's what you leave and conceive. what you've got is nothing if your soul don't represent it, present it, it ain't where you're from it's where you've been kid 🤯
It is all real music. For the most part it is all good music. Most of us are stunted by our understanding of language. We are hearing the poetry. When it comes to the words this is good poetry to good music.
"slug is infinite" "intensity of HIS flow" That kind of implies he's talking about slug. Either way all I'm trying to say is that if an underground rapper starts to get millions of views people start calling them mainstream. Don't believe me? Go look at the comments on any popular Atmosphere video and you see haters calling them mainstream.
Spawn and Slug's tracks are the best that and dynospectrum i heard pep love in headshots i heard that they dont kick it anymore i have heard a diss track from hieroglyphics called fantasy island i dont like it slug works hard to get where he is at
is it bad that our education system fails so baddly that I learn more listening to music, contemplating and searching shit that is intresting and relavent to me?
i love how my favorite songs never have "advertisments" lol
Right! That’s how underground this is right here.
The people said it’s underground rap and RUclips understood the assignment lol
I miss having this on disc. It was a better recording
From 2012 to 2023, still jamming this shit. Hidden gem.

a text from a cousin in minnesota to download some songs on napster turned into 20 years of checking new tracks, and discovering old.

Music with a message. And now I can explain to my kid that atmosphere and eyedea are some of the greatest MC’s
But that’s Slug and the dude Formerly known as Spawn!
2 absolutely wicked Emcees of their time….
Eyedea RIP but he was also a massive part of the Rhymesayers Entertainment
Knew of Atmosphere since 2008, first time hearing this one. :)
Slug and Spawn duo's were always the best.

🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
I’ve loved atmosphere and this song for many years but I don’t think I understand this line, could you explain the context?
"nowadays he fucks with lightbulbs"*

Heard this in middle school 2008... still hits the same in 2024...
hip hop with a purpose....the fact that this is not on the radio speaks volumes for the masses

How have I just discovered this ... It still amazes me I stumble across old but gold tracks on the daily...
discovering new music by Atmosphere is like finding gold or some shit man
if more people listened to music like this, with meaning, the world would be so much less corrupt. i mean look at hpw atmospheres fans are generally peaceful and chill, what if everybody could be that way??
word up!
but idiots can't comprehend it this is like a foreign language
Not everyone is conscientious
Slug is my favorite rapper/lyricist of all time but damn I really love Spawn too. Him and Slug go really well together.
one of the best songs theyve both ever made
WOAH! Over 254k view?! Thank you listening to one of my favorite Independent and the hometown heroes, Atmosphere! Although I'm in Seattle for a career change, I do miss Southside Minneapolis.
spawn and slug together, sound so good.
spawn is a fuckin savage
this is the music that should be on radio
I would be nothing without you guys. Thanks for saving my life. 🙏
Yes. Amen.
Spawn and atmosphere I miss this style
rawlake having just listened to Little Man and hearing this for the first time, it’s sad this chemistry didn’t continue
*Slug
@@loganvandyk7090 I dont see the connection between Spawn and Little Man unless you think Spawn is his father?
Beautiful picture I could stare at it all day

Sorry for your loss, sis. 🙏🏽
Great beat , something to rexal to !
Rap real shit Said !
Spawn was so dope. Rek the Heavyweight still has some shit that's poppin,
After nearly 7 years of listening to this song at least 80 times per year I finally realized Spawn said 'crews ENTHUSED' lol.
i love how this song soundsssss
What you've got is nothing if your soul don't represent it.
Been blasting slug for 10 years now! It's not how you live its how you breath!
The level of immaculate, like it was a practiced skill. Slug's verse on this sing is so fucking ill.

this is one of my favorites from slug
this is so true about life.. i mean listen to it... it speaks truth about ppls lives
old school slug forever

Miss the old slug
they use the best of beats then have atmosphere rap some sick lyrics... its that good shit.
Hell yes.
Such a classic
It ain’t how you die, it’s how you breathe
It ain’t what you take, it’s what you leave and conceive
What you got is nothing if your soul don’t represent it
Present it, it ain’t where you’re from, it’s where you been, kid
So glad for the 41 non heads who tried it and ran the other away. Slug and this style most won't leave bderstand just like he says in the track your soul won't/can't represent it.
"I know that kid, seemed as if he had no insecurities"
Love that line, kinda sounds like how my voice sounds when I use sarcasm
Bro this track is 🔥
mannn slug starts with a banger verse...facts!!!
Andre was thinkin get paid!
Slugmosphere
Antmosphere
Spawnmosphere
Slug dominated it once again (y)
now it's over, started from the bottom now the whole team here!
I WOULDNT GET THRO LIFE W/O ATMOSPHERE
How are you these days?
it's raining outside...................but this makes the start of my day glorious all the same
they lied, it ain't how you die it's how you breathe, it ain't what you take it's what you leave and conceive. what you've got is nothing if your soul don't represent it, present it, it ain't where you're from it's where you've been kid 🤯

They didn’t lie on this one. Respect to the truth sayers
Amazing hip hop
damn this hits me hard
ive never liked spawn very much but older-ish atmosphere has such awesome beat and flow
Thanks to staff and no go pains
is it bad that our education system fails so baddly that I learn more listening to music, contemplating and searching shit that is intresting and relavent to me?
Spittin' the truth!!
Damn is it hard for you to find new atmosphere music every time i get to this part youtube I find new music of thiers
SPAWN!!

Slug and Spawn against Ants beats...wished it wouldve lasted longer...
It's in Minneapolis
I guess I ll forever be a street scholar king, a dumpy on the highway trying program things
at 1:12 slug spits that verse on a song called Heavy Ceiling by deep puddle dynamics
Looking at rookies that try to emulate
