I am 60 years old. I probably should not like Atmosphere as much as I do. I am not much into hip hop, but I have not heard a song by these guys that I have not liked since I stumbled upon them RUclips surfing a couple months ago.. Reminds me a more hip hop version of Citizen Cope. I think this is my favorite Atmosphere song that I have heard so far.
+Marc Emrich no no no. take that back dude. every big rave i go to, matter of fact any rave there is always that older couple. i love it, i hope i am as cool as you guys when i am older. live slow die old. enjoy it all while we can.
Nah dawg musics for all. atmosphere is one of the most inspirational groups ibe heard in a long time and hell 80% of what I listen to was the music you'd listen to while you were growing up.
Lost my job with this crisis. Lost it all Family, home, friends and feel like I am living in Bizzaro world. Everything is upside down. But energy like this makes it just a little more tolerable. Love you Brother Atmosphere. I will never give up.
@@jenniferrose745 yes. Made foreman at my job. Had a case expunged and doing much better. It made me stronger and was definitely a learning experience. Just hang in there everybody because everyday can't be the best day but they are coming soon if you gird up your loins and stay in the race. Love you my peeps
I got in trouble at work today for something I didn’t even do. Tried to explain it but they won’t listen to me. Was pretty mad about it but this song helped me put it into perspective. Stewing over it only hurts me. Plus, maybe this will motivate me to get some more job applications done 😂
+Peyton Olson I lUuUuv my job! Gotta do what you luv or luv what you do! WHen you can't, just be thankful your able! ALways striving to do your best. Be your very own very best! Luv who U are even when they don't! Luv and embrace who they are. "Take the BAd with the gOOd now let's play!" Love Well and it wILL be returned ;-)
Same here...work and working on a Bachelors. Technically, i'm loss prevention, but a million other things that are making me begin to resent the job...but waiting till I can qualify for a job carrying a gun with more risk and more $ to get the hell out. Trying not to go insane at this moment, this song helps...
Today is definitely that day. I'm not gonna get into the details, but even though it's shitty because I know this will pass. Good music and good people make everything better.
i used to be pretty depressed from 2012- a couple months ago, but i just started realizing stuff about life. Not everyone is gonna like you, and it doesn't matter what they say because you probably won't know they in the future, so why worry about them now? i look at it as if someone has something not kind to say behind your back, you must being doing something that they wish they could do or else they wouldn't be talking trash. I take all the negative and positiv things said about and to me in stride, letting it boost my confidence and be a better person. I've been more social and accepting of myself, loving myself. I've been a lot happier daily. Life is too short to worry about what people say about you, because at the end of the day you're the only person their for yourself pretty much, except family i guess. Don't let the small stuff get to you, life is to short for that. Enjoy every day you have and try to make the best out of every situation. Atleast that's what I figured out and what's being working for me.
One of my sons friends introduced me to this song after my hec passed away in a car wreck. 1995 to 2018 rest easy Michael. I’ve listened to this song at least 80 times since then. Peace ✌🏼 much respect
“And it won’t get no better when you get home” man. This got me through high school, 13-14 years later this song is probably one of the only that kept me going back then
According to Rap Genius, this is Slug talking to three different versions of himself. First verse is Present Slug, second is past Slug and the third is Future Slug. This song is just too awesome.
I love it when he says he makes this music for US and when Eyedea says "Here for you". It makes me feel like I have to 2 people to help me at lonely times, thank you.
I started listening to Atmosphere last year or so and when I started listening I fell in love immediately. Slug doesn't rap about how much his life sucks per se, rather he raps about the lessons he learnt from shit situations. There is no rapper out there that makes me feel good about myself and my life like Slug. Guys a genius and his rhymes speak truth. The greatest shame of all is that he isn't more famous. Peace from the UK.
Today would've been my little sisters 28th birthday, I wish I could send this to her to listen to today. She always listened to the songs I sent her and she loved the brother Ali stuff I sent her while she was alive, happy birthdays little sis.
This song makes me want to be more honest with myself. Sometimes facing the hard truths about oneself or situation can be the most difficult thing to do in life. I get choked up thinking about it but in a strange, joyous way. I don't even know what to call this feeling.
I heard this song for the first time about 6 months ago and have problably listened to it 1000's of times....actually brings me to tears at times. Just so damn good.
I am a Physician Assistant.... and doing the Primary Care sling.... dealing insurance companies.... avoiding admin... and being over booked on every visit.... have to say I enjoyed this... did make my day
Atmosphere I honestly wish I had your depth of thought and attitude. You seem so down to earth in your lyrics but always make the best of whatever is happening in your life. Keep it up man your raps always make me think and smile
this is real rap. Im so glad i found this guy he really puts passion into his music hes not like another front on the radio rapping about guns, drugs, or hoes. Wish more rappers would be authentic.
Ha, I barely notice the weather in my store...rain is the least of my worries, i'll probably get fired for not attempting to make it in my small car in the snow anyways...physics don't exist in the retail environment.
Never make comments on RUclips.... just don’t care really, but atmosphere is my favorite rapper. He helped me really appreciate rap on a deeper level, and helped me with what is really important in a song.... that it’s something real that speaks to others. This song is an anthem. Who possibly could not relate? Just excellent
Part of me loves that Atmosphere isn't mainstream, like it takes a special kind of person to appreciate them. I have been to many concerts in my life and the energy at Slugs shows are like no other, everyone is singing together, sharing good vibes and no drama, we're all just there to appreciate the music and have a good time.
“But I can’t quit. So I’m hiding in the basement, holding on to my face like fuck this place” 🤣 Oh man that part always makes me chuckle. Like, who hasn’t been in this exact same situation… thinking that exact same shit at one point or another in their life? 😆
I used to listen to this all of the time, but totally forgot about it when I lost my little book of like 5 CDs when I was about 11. Funny how music never fades away, no? :P
I'm still somewhat young, 33 but this music takes me back to my childhood, and absolutely Not a single song is not a hit period. Atmosphere is the bee's knees. Slug is the truth.
I found this song over 8 yrs ago when I first for seperated. Here I am in 2021 and just trying to get the signature on those divorce papers! Love this song.
Elias Shammas Why you gotta go and say rude shit for no reason? There is a good chance you went through some tough times during high school. Just because that kind of thing doesn't matter to you anymore doesn't mean you should belittle others for mentioning it.
Helped me in my highschool alot I had a very bad one with surgery's and being made fun of by other kids the middle verse is really what kept me going. All I did was wanna kill myself and I had no friends they already graduated and would hang out with other people besides me. This is the only song that kept me sane in highschool. Been 4 years sense I graduated and I still listen to this everyday it's still is what keeps me going.....
I was driving my car today and as I drove over the bridge on my way to work I thought about swerving off into the water and just ending it, that’s when this song came on and I realized taking the easy way out is not The right thing to do fighting through is worth it, I’m becoming stronger in the end
Saw his show in nyc earlier this month at Irving plaza. Hard to believe these guys havent blown up through out the years.Thank you RUclips and Pandora cause without I would have never discovered Atmosphere. The live show is killer a must see.
This song is great, it comes up once in a while on the free-Spotify I use in the twitch section and the lyrics are great. I love rap with nice lyrics like this and not super-excessive -cursing. Good stuff.
its monday and im in such a good which is really weird. anyway, this song came on pandora earlier and i felt really happy and i passed by all my friends and there were hugs and high fives everywhere. i felt so cool. it felt like a music video lol. cant believe im just now hearing this.
This led me to a new philosophy of life. You have to have bad days to compare to a good day to know you're having a good day. Basically you can't have one without the other so enjoy the good when it happens

I am not much into hip hop, but I have not heard a song by these guys that I have not liked since I stumbled upon them RUclips surfing a couple months ago..

Music is for everyone regardless of age

I'm right there with you. BTW, I'm 53 yo. So what? Good music for us all!!!
Nah dawg musics for all. atmosphere is one of the most inspirational groups ibe heard in a long time and hell 80% of what I listen to was the music you'd listen to while you were growing up.
idk if you will ever read this Astmosphere, but your music saved my life. keep doing you man.

Keep your head up brother
I have a feeling it has saved many lives.
100 percent love you brother. I belive in you!!! And understand what you're saying!

Atmosphere has the most motivational lyrics. These are real life problems. I absolutely love Atmosphere!

You and me both
he knows how to say what I wish I could say
Hell yah
Michael Roberts try listening to sweatshop union the bill Murray EP OR water Town I think is the other album
Lost my job with this crisis. Lost it all Family, home, friends and feel like I am living in Bizzaro world. Everything is upside down. But energy like this makes it just a little more tolerable. Love you Brother Atmosphere. I will never give up.
Hope things will get better soon brother! Feel your pain being a father and battling through this crisis myself. Things will get better.
Take it one day at a time. Once we are able to hug our loved ones without fear, it'll all be worth it. Stay safe
Hope you're doing better one year later. Just keep doing your best, man.

That's awesome man. One day at a time. Keep your head up!
I listen to this song on bad days to lift me up, and on good days to remind to appreciate those days.
This song just instantly unfucks your day.
Well said 🤣😂
@@vtecninja6363 YES SOMEBODY WHO IS IN 2020/2021 HIIIII
Yes
It was my anthem during my divorce.
yes it does
12 years later and this done still bumps!
Yup 💯
Forever and always
I had a rough day, but that's life. It happens. This song helped me not be mad about work by the time I got home today.
I got in trouble at work today for something I didn’t even do. Tried to explain it but they won’t listen to me. Was pretty mad about it but this song helped me put it into perspective.
Stewing over it only hurts me. Plus, maybe this will motivate me to get some more job applications done 😂
2022 and I still love this song....It lifts me up Big Time !!!
Yes 👍
It stands the test of time. We've all been there, but feels good that someone says it out loud. 1Love!
I’m glad to see people still listening 😌. Classic
Agreed, I Iisten to it on a daily basis!
2032 called...song still hits like the day it was dropped. Mark my words
Best song to listen on a monday.
Someone gots a case of the Mondays
Yup definitely a Monday song
Damn. That little "we miss you Mikey" at the end really hit hard for some reason.
Yeah same here man. Weird missing someone you've never met but I feel like he was a close friend.
@@sreynolds1488 I feel the same. R EYE P.
Great tune and so attuned to life. It's rather tough some days ...
Still listening today at 23 I remember when my dad showed me this song. This song helps when I’m having a bad day.
About to go work at fricken Golden Corral. This makes me feel better about it .
+Peyton Olson I shit you not I listened to this song every day after I got off from a Golden Corral
hahah sweet
*****
THETomsdabomb that's fucking sick man. That place's anthem lol

Same here...work and working on a Bachelors. Technically, i'm loss prevention, but a million other things that are making me begin to resent the job...but waiting till I can qualify for a job carrying a gun with more risk and more $ to get the hell out. Trying not to go insane at this moment, this song helps...
Today is definitely that day. I'm not gonna get into the details, but even though it's shitty because I know this will pass. Good music and good people make everything better.
I love how Slug and Ant make such timeless grooves that ALWAYS touch us emotionally… Real respects real… ✌️♥️🙏 Years later and still feels fresh…
Line "your the one that we make this music for" .... Gives me chills and smiles .

i love how he just talks and relates to everyone in all age groups.. its the truth !!
That's what I was thinking, he mentions students, younger adults, and older adults so everyone can relate
this song and God Loves Ugly(the song) help me keep going. Everytime im feeling shitty, i throw those two songs on and feel a thousand times better
+chelsea6671 The Best Day Ever and Sunshine are the best songs for making you smile on a bad day (:
yes. they are
Listen to the song sunshine

@@rastiga9196 Honestly, right? Its not a big deal anyway lol
I dont even know what to say. There's so much to say about these guys. I couldn't imagine a world without them. Lookimg forward to seeing them soon!
I heard this song for the first time about 6 months ago and have problably listened to it 1000's of times....actually brings me to tears at times. Just so damn good.
First day of my new job about 4 years back, I walked in and this was playing.... I knew I found my place and my people. Love the job and this song! :)
Atmosphere, you changed my life and I will forever be grateful for your music and beautiful minds.
This song always makes me feel better no matter what I do to myself.... Love it.
Real talk fam
My older coworker showed me this song. He knows i have some anger issues and said it helped him with his. And you know what? It does. It really does.
Rhymefest 2024❤
Saw these guys in Chicago for the all my friends tour. Quite possibly the most talented group out there. These songs have meaning and they matter.
This song has got me through so much since last fall. One of the best songs I’ve ever heard
And it won't get no better when I get home, so I listen to the voice in the headphones.
And and slug will always make me smile
I am a Physician Assistant.... and doing the Primary Care sling.... dealing insurance companies.... avoiding admin... and being over booked on every visit.... have to say I enjoyed this... did make my day
This song absolutely nails it. Life...
Never going to forget Atmosphere...Slug and Ant can cure almost anything
When i was jamming this song a couple years back it made me realize i should break it off with my ex. Best decision i ever made
Loved your show at the blue rock in Columbus, Ohio. Was way tooo tired from work to throw my hands up everytime.
poetry can quite literally be anything. Any rapper, artist, or singer is a poet if any person interprets it as they want.
Atmosphere I honestly wish I had your depth of thought and attitude. You seem so down to earth in your lyrics but always make the best of whatever is happening in your life. Keep it up man your raps always make me think and smile
And I'm not dumb y'all I know its multiple people!! I meant this to go to all of them
this is real rap. Im so glad i found this guy he really puts passion into his music hes not like another front on the radio rapping about guns, drugs, or hoes. Wish more rappers would be authentic.
as i called in sick today because i am and i didnt want to work in the rain.
this song was a good find.

It's been a helluva ride. Thank you for the soundtrack to the good, the bad, the worst, and the best that has been my life.

ATMOSPHERE did change my life.
Love this song and Atmosphere
Thank God for Atmosphere. Helping ease us off the ledge with some perspective. See you tomorrow.
I feel this song more than anything song when you say we're the people you make this music for. Feel positive. Love and energy. God bless all.
shits a daily bump for me. such good feels
“But I can’t quit. So I’m hiding in the basement, holding on to my face like fuck this place” 🤣

That's true all rap now is about trap but I got a rap group that's trying to change the game
This song always lifts me up when I’m down thanks Atmosphere ❤️
I found this song over 8 yrs ago when I first for seperated. Here I am in 2021 and just trying to get the signature on those divorce papers!
Love this song.
Ima redneck. Hillbilly. Was jukin here n there n found jurassic5, then atmosphere... My mood is fantastic 😊😊😊
A friend of my sons turned me onto this song last August ... said my son loved it.. Rest easy Michael May 10 1995- July 21 2018 ☮️
This is always the lifetime music that helps you grow. Through the better and worse, we will figure this shit out.
Anyone here in 2024?
Never left atmosphere the most underrated rapper ever , dude is poetic, his lyrics his relatability. Sad part is people won't even know who this is
Exactly!! Never left.
Almost 3025

Been here for a long long time. Happy holidays
this video makes me so goddamn happy and is certainly gonna hold me over until i graduate high school... senior year totally isn't forever haha
Enjoy it while you can man. Trust.
NO one cares
Really
Elias Shammas Why you gotta go and say rude shit for no reason? There is a good chance you went through some tough times during high school. Just because that kind of thing doesn't matter to you anymore doesn't mean you should belittle others for mentioning it.
Elias Shammas ten people(not including me) showed that they care by liking the comments above u... u must be blind,really...
Helped me in my highschool alot I had a very bad one with surgery's and being made fun of by other kids the middle verse is really what kept me going. All I did was wanna kill myself and I had no friends they already graduated and would hang out with other people besides me. This is the only song that kept me sane in highschool. Been 4 years sense I graduated and I still listen to this everyday it's still is what keeps me going.....
will always be a banger !
This is one of my favorites. I swear to you all I play this almost every day on my way as I drive in to work.
World of love my brothers. Thank you. 9
.....EPIC!!! Don't stop sharing your gift!! Your music is good for the soul and it's genuine...thank you
I was driving my car today and as I drove over the bridge on my way to work I thought about swerving off into the water and just ending it, that’s when this song came on and I realized taking the easy way out is not The right thing to do fighting through is worth it, I’m becoming stronger in the end
The best day is when i listen Atmosphere
That's every day.. so I wish it worked the same for me...
Saw his show in nyc earlier this month at Irving plaza. Hard to believe these guys havent blown up through out the years.Thank you RUclips and Pandora cause without I would have never discovered Atmosphere. The live show is killer a must see.
People can't have positivity on the radio, unless it's fake sugarpop garbage. This should be on hourly...
I'm seeing them tonight
For pretty much the past 2 months I have been listening exclusively to Atmosphere ... and I'm totally okay with that
This song is great, it comes up once in a while on the free-Spotify I use in the twitch section and the lyrics are great. I love rap with nice lyrics like this and not super-excessive -cursing. Good stuff.
its monday and im in such a good which is really weird.
anyway, this song came on pandora earlier and i felt really happy and i passed by all my friends and there were hugs and high fives everywhere. i felt so cool. it felt like a music video lol. cant believe im just now hearing this.
Holy crap! I love this song! Weird seeing you here xD
😂
Wait what lol
it's the internet bruh, we're all here.
When did you get here family friendly channel guy
I-
Oh good old Atmosphere, never fails.
This song gets me through the all the hard days. Preach
U know what's weird, I've been listening to this song since I was seven I'm serious. I'm 13 now and tbh this might be my favorite song of all time.
I love this song🤟
Still listening at 52 in 2024.....
Same here 😍😍

This is my all time favorite song. Any time I’m having a bad day I turn this on and always makes me feel better. I know this word for word.
This led me to a new philosophy of life. You have to have bad days to compare to a good day to know you're having a good day. Basically you can't have one without the other so enjoy the good when it happens
I wrecked my car while listening to this song on Monday. Only thing I remember from the moment. 🤷♀️ Guess everyday can’t be the best day.
Oof
I hope things are going better now that it's been a few years
