You're welcome, K.Dub. And thanks for support, +1 right at cha.

Fuck You Lucy is a great song. I heard Slug joking that Lucy was/is his cat, lol ;D.
It's funky enough!

His cat? Where did you get that?
I heard "Lucy" is a metaphor for girls.

He only joked, because somebody asked him about that :)...

If you've got nothing to do today, watch it. Dudes are funny as hell. These episodes have confirmed me that Atmosphere is my #1 group all time.

God Loves Ugly re-issue dropping January 20, 2009! ;-)

I wanted to cop it, but I couldn't find it anywhere. Great news that they'll re-release it. So if somebody damned that album because of hard finding, go get that on 20th Jan.

First I don't mind "Studio Gangsters",it's not what you say,it's how you say say it....  ;)
Most if not all of the so called "real gangsters" can't rap for shit.... they can stick to what they do best; crime  :P and let the "studio gangsters" do their thing. (music)
If you're speaking "gangster pop",well... shit has been watered down...but there's still cats doing their thing.

Anyway,Atmosphere....
hmmm the first one; has a hella dope video... the music is too "alternative" and "white" for me.
The second   :laugh: :laugh: :laugh: wtf  :-X sorry... but the cat that direct their videos is hella tight,the finger board concept is tight.... love the way it narrates trough the scenes. Dope close up´s.
The third one ... this is a little better,actually sounds like something.
The beat and piano is tight. Not sure about his skills as a rapper or voice... but it ain't bad,I just need some time to rate his performance.

Thanks for the links though,at least now I know somewhat,what it sounds like  ;)


What about these?


and


He's always on point, I'm deep in this group, great music and great lyrics. I think you should give it some rotation.

- The beat is alright,it's on some Hip Hop shit...it sounds live,the sound quality is ehhh  :P.... what I liked best about this track though is the outro,when the DJ cuts shit up.... and ends up the classic Bushwick Bill line from from Geto Boys first album.

- it sounds alright,but damn the sound quality is really on some bootleg shit.

BTW. this is too white too? (go on 2:15)

RA would murder anybody.


- Nah,this is some real shit....
yeah he got skills,tight rhyme but I didn't like his slurring flow.... so for me this cat is better off as songwriter,because there's no doubt that verse was tight.  ;)
When I say "white",I clearly don't mean color... but I assume you got that already,since you asked me about this cat  ;)

The piano and the soul sample sounds dope... I still can´t judge the raps because of the quality  :P


What's wrong with the quality?

I can barely hear the vocals.... after around 3;30 (I believe),when the breakdown comes and goes into a instrumental outro it sounds clearer.


Then you might need to get some new speakers or get a new set of ears. I find the vocal good.
I could hook up the track from the album if you want?
