Editor's Review:

The Midwestern miracle of hip-hop, Slug of Atmosphere, ships out his newest single from the forthcoming album "God Loves Ugly." Slug has always been one to drop some thoughtful rhymes and he continues to do so on this release, however this time around with a little more maturity. Slug's rhymes somehow make an amazing balance between aggressive-attacking raps and realistic down to earth rhymes, and it always comes out sounding tight. The production on this single is what impressed me the most. A.N.T., the producer for Atmosphere, drops four new beats for your headphones. The songs on this 12" are strung together with breaks in between songs, which gives the record a good flow. This 12" is dope, but I don't think it will be the one to blow up Atmosphere.

Atmosphere

Bio[+]

Atmosphere — a.k.a. rapper Slug and his DJ-dû-jour, usually Abilities or Mr. Dibbs — holds down hip-hip in the Midwestern mecca of Minneapolis, MN. A member of the Rhymesayers crew (along with Eyedea), this enigmatic romeo of a rapper has found huge success in the underground with releases like Se7ens and the available-on-tour-only Sad Clown Bad Dub series. With the wide release of 2002’s God Loves Ugly it’s just a matter of time before this honest and talented MC breaks out on a large scale.
