  • There, I feel better. Now back to studying.

  • Little man was the first man she believed in, great line, my sons father left us after I had my son and didnt name my baby after him and doing it all on my own its all good though I know my son and I have a special relationship I dont need a man and no I dont want his help my baby is better off not knowing a man so selfish

  • ive always wondered that if this story was true where would she be now?

  • love it

  • I always expected a video for this song.... oh well

  • Ant goes hard on this track. For real though, this song leaves me on the verge of tears sometimes. The way Slug tells these stories is so beautiful.

  • DAMN YOU SLUG, now everytime I see commercials for 16 and pregnent I tear up.

  • I actually came here to look for that 90's disco hit, but found out this one is great;)

  • Fucki'n good!!!

  • Thank God for Atmosphere. Missin my boy, he introduced me to these fellas a while ago. RIP M.O.

  • it seems like atmosphere has atleast one song that anybody can relate to this is not my son but i could relate to last to stay and no i dont believe in hitting women. props he really speaks about life.

  • we pray for dollars and work for change

  • they 8 people who disliked this should burn in hell for not knowing what real music sounds like

  • @kdkraftdinner1 : That's rough. It's a great song and joking about people disliking music is funny sometimes but that... c'mon. Nobody should burn in hell because of a harmless opinion.

  • Minneapolis for life, Northside!

  • @TheThoemkeProject fuck northside southside is my resting place

    

  • My type of hip hop

    =)

  • @ArrivaLaFranja21 it's rap! :)

  • This is my favorite song right now. So talented and tells a great story. Keep doin your thing fellas!!!

  • Dude this is my childhood!!! Sad to say but its all true. Mom with condition, hard life going up, the apartment, the work, strong mother, violence, my sister born 1st then the boy (me) this is crazy.

  • This song is me.

    I'm pregnant with a baby girl.

    Seventeen.

    Baby's dad is violent.

    He has no money.

    I have no money.

    But I still let him stick around, in hope of better days.

    My mom will watch my baby.

    I have two jobs.

    Holllyyy shit thank you Atmosphere for making music that every single person can connect to, and feel like they are understood. I listened to this song and felt something for the first time in a long time.

  • @definevenus im sorry to hear that shits going to get better for you and before you know it youlle have your own maid to help take care of it while your out there being famous! =3

  • @definevenus I'm sure they hear that sort of thing a lot. I find something in every song that pertains to my situation. Atmosphere is genius!

  • @definevenus Baby's dad better straighten up.

    Goodluck sweetie.

  • "quit the job to go take her chance with life"  hell yea... cutting hours to go to school is tougher than the "easy" rout of staying where you are because you WILL have less money when youre going to school. Eventually though, shit works out..chase those dreams

  • if you enjoy atmosphere. i suggest also checking out Aesop rock and Deltron 3030

  • Comment removed

  • I love how Atmosphere makes songs for everybody to relate to. It doesn't matter what gender, race, or creed you are. He reminds me of Bob Marley in the sense that music is a way to love, understanding and most of all, it has the power to heal. Thanks Slug.

  • how can 6 ppl dislike this?!?! they shouldn't allow the option of a thumbs down when Atmospheres on here

  • is it just me or did youtube eliminate all "playlists".

    cant find any playlists anywhere all of a sudden.

    i would always type in Atmosphere playlist and there they would be but now i cant find any playlists whatsoever...

  • @lankball911 Try typing in Atmosphere mix.

  • chubbys are half  boners....

  • The 6 dislike were a mistake they thought it said "dis i like"

  • everytime i listen to atmosphere i get a chubby

  • @Johnilusgdm a chuby chick?

  • @Johnilusgdm

    yeah what do you mean??

  • @DICKLIGHTSKATECREW he means a boner...

  • @DICKLIGHTSKATECREW lmao chubby as in a boner

  • @Domidget

    a chubby boner?

    boner's are hard xD

  • i love this song and will never forget it...

  • coffee is on,

  • if it makes it hurt less to curse n fight, go ahead and hate the world girl u earned the right

  • the lyrics are fuckin great. but damn that bassline is too sexy

  • this is like one of my favoriet songs :o teehee

  • music is music

  • Out of every Atmosphere song, this has to be my favorite. It reminds me of my childhood and the struggles my mother went through raising me and my sister. The first time I heard the song I was shocked how close the story in this song was to my mothers life (a few details are mixed up, I was the one with the heart condition, boy came first, etc.)

    I've met Slug twice, but I've never asked him about this song, I always get nervous and talk about something else. Big ups for making this song.

  • @pimpslapsall real talk i got a heart condition too which is why i love this song too..

  • girls - had a bad day? turn on taylor swift.

    boys - had a bad day? turn on some atmosphere.

  • @laxxchickk12 not always! (:

  • @laxxchickk12 nah, im a girl and i turn on some atmosphere if i have a terrible day or a great day,  (:

  • @JessicaEatsBabies mee tooo

  • @laxxchickk12 fuckkkk that.

    atmosphere, necro, ill bill, cadalack ron.

    fuck taylor swift

  • @chucknewborn

    that covers most spectrums of rap, nice

  • Slug... you have a real gift for storytelling.

  • Know all the word to Atmosphere. got all the songs on my playlist, i have 475 songs on my playlist, but there is over things on there too. just saying Atmosphere is the Greater Shizzle Dizzle.....WORD.

  • Lil Wayne is crap.

    Atmosphere, Minneapolis represent.

  • who cares about lil wayne? commenting on how bad he is doesn't do justice to Slug's abilities

  • Lil waynes songs go, "I get ______ like ________."

    "I'm so _______ like ________." He's a horrible rapper, that raps about the same thing in different variations. Don't compare Slug to the "Lil Weezy".

  • can we all stop with the lil wayne and slug and drake arguments. pleasE!! drake and wayne have a completely different style then slug and truthfully we cant just say lil wayen sucks, really when you think about it wayne (not in my opinion) is the best rapper in the history of rap to everyone else. if mc slug went mainstream rap would be completely different i'm sure but can we just stop with the arguments lol lets just get high to atmosphere and go home!!

  • I love Ant, his beats are all fucking amazing.

  • I just realized how deep these lyrics are.....

  • Lil' Wayne should never be thought of while listening to atmosphere.

    Shut up and listen to the damn song.

  • It doesn't matter what you know about the rapper. Just like the music. Who cares about the label, the history of the band? If you like the music, you are a fan. There is no degree of fan.

  • Love Love Love Love Love Love Love Love Love Love Love Love Love Love

  • how about, fuck lil wayne. & fuck you kids who dont know that Atmosphere is two people. & fuck those same kids who think they are underground b/c they listen to Atmosphere. not to mention they dont even know the label they are signed to. So that makes yall just as bad as lil wayne fans. ignit' ass fools.

  • people need to stop talking bout lil wayne cuz atmosphere beats his music to pieces

  • and i dont think lil waynes main goal is to entertain... i think it's to make money. atmosphere raises consciousness and entertains at the same time, to make money, but its all real, its all him. its all his art

  • also atmosphere has ant whos the king of sampling and makes the craziest beats usually with authentic instruments. better than lil waynes pop punk crap and "futuristic" synths and shit. i find rap like that actually annoying. atmospheres got the guitars, bass, its just so good

  • Don't talk about Lil Wayne and atmosphere together, it's offensive. Atmosphere is real music.

  • i love this song it puts me in a good mood

  • i love lil wayne. but atmosphere are crazy good

  • why are you all hating on other artists, wasting space on this artists page?

  • this song.......has a happy vibe to it!

  • STOP SAYING OTHER "RAPPERS" NAMES IN THE FUCKING POST BOX YOUR JUST GIVING THEM MORE ATTENTION!!!

  • @ZoloftMuncher Fuck yeah man! Only people worth listening to are Atmosphere and his fellow Rhymesayer, P.O.S.

  • @themasternazgul Aesop Rock is fuckin flow nasty, and Murs is awesome too, if you haven't heard them check them out .

  • follow the cold chills...you will be alright

  • Actually to all you non hip hop heads on the fuck lil wayne campaign, Slug plays lil wayne on RSE radio so calm the fuck down. Oh ya have any of you ever even heard slug bust a free? Youtube that shit, hes not great. Eyedea and im tech would rape him. Go look him up slug in Scribble jams. Im not saying wayne is better im just saying give respect when due. Slug is a better rapper but not a better freestyler. Learn your history before you talk out your ass.

  • @fingerboardguy05 alright.. i agree nearly with everything, but slug can freestyle pretty well. and for sure better than lil wayne ;) im not talking about freestyle battles, but freestyle on itself. even in freestyle battles slugs not bad. nothing to compare with eyedea, sage, juice nor brother ali. but he still came pretty far in the scribble jam freestyles... slugs got pretty dope freestyle skills ;)

  • @elcattiv0 haha ture

  • EVERYBODY LOVE EVERYBODY

  • Damn dude where did he go?? im goin to a show in dallas, his new shits kinda lame but damn i could listen to the lyrics and just know it him.

  • Lil Wayne is a classic... Unfortunately... He has nothing to do with Atmosphere. lol. Anybody who can talk shit n freestyle like Atmosphere deserves my respect. I haven't ever been dissapointed by Atmosphere yet.

  • people who compare atmosphere to other main stream crap, look up "mr peter parker presents slug of atmosphere"... free styles off the top of his head for 10 minutes

  • LOVE THIS SONG

  • Entirely Excellent

  • Love this song. one of their bests

  • Most underated rapper in the world..

  • Amazing to see how Slug has progressed.

  • awwwwww this song is sooo sad

  • @luvtwilight14 dont just listen to the beat for 10 seconds THEN start judging!!!

  • @MrSeanlamkins it actually is a pretty sad song lol...

  • @YoungDirtyCwalk oh shit........haha I thought he was talking about his skill :P i fail

  • @MrSeanlamkins I assume not... cause if so, I totally agree with what you first said XD

  • @MrSeanlamkins lol,listen to the lyrics fool!

  • Going to see Atmosphere next month!!!! In other words I'm finding the meaning of life next month....

  • @xarmenthius best show youll ever see man i saw him in hawaii and it was off the hook. hes amazing live

  • i fucking love how atmosphere puts emotions into his verses it makes the song so much more powerful

  • Atmosphere is the shittt dude

  • "some times it can seem so cold to what you gotta do to cope"

  • I Loveeee This Song. It's My Favorite(: Best Song Everrr!

  • fuckin love this song. and atmosphere too of course <3

  • Another great Atmosphere song!

    I agree totally with u DZeus13! Pop is not the Devil :)

    Respect for all the other musicians involved in this album,

    the live instruments make it so organic and mellow.

  • 2:55

    This is life we all strain

    While we pray for dollars and we work for change

    It's all the same we all struggle

    Sometimes you gotta say fuck you(fuck you)

  • Okay... Why is everyone freaking arguing about who's better... Why does it matter? I love mainstream music and underground too. Lil Wayne is dope... Gucci ain't terrible... Eminem is a geninus... Drake ain't so bad either! Atmosphere is THE SHIT. Sage Francis: can't even think of a way to describe him. Just amazing... P.O.S is great too! Obviously the underground people rap about more "real" things and have. most of the time. better lyrics. But mainstream ain't so bad ha.

  • This is a pretty legit track

  • slug, i fucking love you.

  • ALL ABOUT ATMOSPHERE-stephen

    

  • R E A L N E S S (to the max!) hahah..

  • i listen to Atmosphere since the first Album . Im really happy to see that this Band ( Slug ) is not Mainstream like Jedi Mind Tricks ( listen to this Band dudes GREAT ) . This is real Hip Hop Music for all people all over the world

  • @DerBoyo i agree atmosphere is an amazing group that keeps it real...but how is jmt mainstream???

  • @DerBoyo Yeh what the fuck man? JDMT is NOT mainstream

  • 420chick I love what you wrote thats exactly what I was thinking!!!! ;)

  • This Is My Favorite song Its Beautiful :)

    Thanks for posting it :)!

  • @ bosniapride your full of shit im from the city slug reps and i know for a fact he doesnt like all kinds of people comin up to him yea hes a great rapper but hes a asshole cuz he dont like the whole aspect of people comin up to him and shit like they know him just cuz they know his name

  • ok. i don't know any music that actually MAKES you smarter. it's just what you're into, like what rhettpeter said. music is art and interpreted differently by different people. some people find comfort in relating to the music or to shed light on struggles. i'm not gonna say all mainstream rappers suck or all underground are the best but my personal opinion most of mainstream is garbage driven by money. That is sadly what Capitalism has driven our society to be but that is a different topic.

  • @darkwar89 ok man i just get annoyed that on any underground rap video half of the comments have to do with how "real" this music is and how fake mainstream music is. I believe that there is no reason to compare and people need to stop being so damn elitist about knowing this or that rapper.

  • @drlaut thank you.. music is music. It either sucks or it doesn't. ppl who talk about mainstream vs. underground aren't real fans of music. They're fans of the scene

  • @drlaut i'm not trying to say that. i'm just tired of people who lump a genre of music together and assume one thing applies to all the artists because they only hear what's on the radio. That sometimes deters them from exploring other artists that may be less known, if they don't know the genre. if you had a bad experience with some sort of food, would you be inclined to try it again? of course, things are interpreted differently from person to person. i'm guilty of generalizing sometimes also.

  • drlaut, i know what you mean, and i agree atmosphere doesn't make you smarter but its a hell of a lot more introspective than the mainstream hiphop so the lyrics provoke thought. thats the difference i think, but yeah depends what you're into

  • Comment removed

  • should of pull out

  • Comment removed

  • i really find it pathetic that underground rapheads can not appreciate rap on its own. you guys keep on comparing it to lil' wayne, and quite frankly its annoying. Face it, listening to atmosphere does not make you smarter. Just enjoy music based on its own merits

  • @drlaut If his lyrics help you understand life better... give you a fresh perspective you didn't even think of before.. is that not philosophy? Does that not represent a branch of intelligence? But yeah, just grooving to the music is good too =D In fact It's all good as long as you only take good out of it :^)

  • @HippieMagicTim dude were you by any chance high when you wrote this comment.. im pretty high right now so dont take that as an insult haha

  • @drlaut haha I don't think so, but does it make it any less true if I were? Simple logic: if anything gives you fresh perspective that helps, then it means you're growing. Where do we think about things at to gain new perspectives?? Hmm, our heads? Pretty sure my argument is sound in that you can indeed gain intelligence from music, but I believe way more so with the deep good shit ^>^

    As long as it resonates with your soul, ain't no reason not to let it flow.

  • this is one of atmosphere's most beautiful songs.

  • Slug speaks for regular-ass struggling Americans more than any contemporary artist I can think of...the Hip Hop Woody Guthrie or Bruce Springsteen!

    "If it makes it hurt less to curse and fight/ Go ahead and head the world girl/ You earned the right"

  • no1 will ever get close to what atmosphere did with music

  • It's scary how close my parents came to identifying with my song. Thanks Dad for getting clean and being my father, and thanks Mom for growing up way sooner than you should have had to.

  • i thinks its cool that more and more people keep listening to slug with good intent. Most people would bag on new people cause this song is super old but i just appreciate that other people have the same taste in real hip hop. :D

  • Nobody puts it like Slug does. He's a brilliant mother fucker.

  • is it bad that i just played this song four times in a row?

  • Not at all..lol I did the same thing..more like 7 times I think lol :D..

  • @2x2is22 yea, cause you should have played it more then that

  • @2x2is22 atmosphere does that to you

  • @2x2is22 no i think its bad if you dont ha.

  • sstrunks

    u are so damn right man

  • Dr. Dre really needs to work beats with Atmosphere. The combo of Atmosphere's lyrics with Dre's beats would be amazing

  • i dunno dre to o gangster, and em's a pretty tough act to follow

  • @sstrunks8000

    Atmosphere is slug (rapper) and ant (beats)

  • why the fuck are people talkin about lil wayne? slug being a better freestyler isnt even an argument. in fact, its kind of an insult that someone thought about lil wayne while listening to atmosphere lol. lil wayne who??

  • @42oChick

    people are just discovering him or something

  • @42oChick it because people find this refreshing as compared to lil wayne its sad that we have to acknowledge the bad rappers were just feeding them when there is simply much more superior music, like this, out there.

  • @42oChick because that person obviously listens to shitty mainstream rap and think since they get paid big for the noneducational lyrics that they spit are the shit and rappers who understand lyrical law are dumb because they don't understand the intelligence they use.

  • @42oChick ahhahahhaha, real talk mama!

  • @42oChick lil wayne isn't even in comparison to slug

  • @42oChick I agree, ugh

  • @42oChick you mentioned the name though.... what a shame

  • This is the first time i've heard this song..its fuggin amazing! Atmosphere is so cool! They ARE real!

  • folks need to turn their ears from mainstream, to whats real right here...

  • This and Little Man = Best toke to

  • Comment removed

  • Atmosphere's lyrics have much more meaning than Lil' Wayne's.

  • lil lame lol someone else writes that dude lyrics and he just giggles that shit onto a record,cmon man dont mention that dudes name on any real underground track pleeeeease.

  • @BarracudaSwimmer7 so? lil wayne is an entertainer, what does it matter if his raps are meaningless as long as they do what he set out to do (that's entertain audiences, btw)?

  • Eh Slug, my dear, is freestyle. Seen him in person. He gave me a hug ^-^ He can freestyle like no other and Lil Wayne does not compare, yo.

  • in a reply to bustalicious, erm, atmosphere is a far better freestylist than lil wayne... have you seen scribble jam?

  • lilwayne is shit old wayne was descent and wayne isnt all freestyle atmosphere is real rap

  • im learning how to write like atmosphere he is amazing i wish i could make my lyrics as powerfull as his

  • one of sean's best such powerful lyrics!!

  • Great song on a GREAT LP BUY this shit!!

  • Great song.

  • this song is so real..damn good lyrics...the sad thing is people might call me a fag for saying this ;) but ftw

  • y would they call u a fag, this is good shit lol

  • hahaha FAG!!!!!

    ....Just kidding this is dope shit!
