  • Damn! so much heart

  • Fuckin sweet Sean! CA via MN.

  • 27 dislikes?!?!? :O what kinda shit is that there should be zero.

  • Sean's voice is perfect. :)

  • this is so much better than the itunes version

  • Anyone else think Slug is waaaaaaay better without Ant? I mean, I like some of Atmosphere's songs, but anything Slug does on his own - or his collaborative stuff with others, like Eyedea - is just amazing.

  • @Cgreene159 Yeah its true in someway, but still atmosphere have som badasssssss songs, but just acoustic is so chill too, you know where i can find more acoustics?

  • @BoLeee Yeah, not trying to hate on Atmosphere as a whole, just saying that I'd rather listen to Slug's individual stuff than Atmosphere's songs. I've been looking for more stuff like this myself, there's a few more on YouTube, but they're few and far between.

  • Comment removed

  • maaannn i love the words that come out of slug mouth.... i can just listen to it all day... i can paint his words in my mind!<3 keep it upp...

  • Few rappers sound this good live.

  • Like if you think they should do a studio version of this!

  • @MrJamesJaded It's on Sad Clown Bad Spring 12. This is a completely different approach than the album version however.

  • @thatbigblackguy I mean a studio version of this acoustic rendition :P

  • @MrJamesJaded That would make sense. It would also be dope.

  • Damn slug is good lyricist

  • 'keeps her headphones loud to drown everything out

    but the same old song...'

  • Comment removed

  • RhymeSayers are bringing old school Hip-hop back. Pretty soon you'll see them all over MTV. Don't hate if they go mainstream, though. Ain't nothing wrong with spreading Atmos or any RhymeSayer Rapper to the media. They'll always stay true to themselves.

  • @PurpleSlugs Only problem i got with them going mainstream is that it allows ignorant naive people to hear good music.

  • @dancansss You shouldn't be worried with what other people be doing. Makes me sad that so many of Atmosphere's videos have comments talking shit 'bout Lil Wayne or Young Money or whoever the fuck these Rappers are called. Listening to Atmosphere, Brother Ali, Eyedea, Murs, etc. has taught me so much about life. One important thing in particular is that you just gotta let people do their thing and be happy with what you're doing. Who gives a fuck if wack ass people start listening to them?

  • @PurpleSlugs Dunno man can't really explain it but there's something special about knowing amazing music that others don't if u know what I mean... Idk maybe we just share different ideals but i respect what ur saying.

  • @PurpleSlugs

    amen

  • Sean is the shizz nizz!

  • this is some deep shit, really captures the pain of people

  • WOW....

    

  • decent singing voice, good job slug

  • I could listen to this over and over again forever and never get sick of it. Sean you're the most talented individual that has saved my life more times than I can count. Thank you.

  • Love this. Just love it

  • just got home from Atmosphere show in London Ont with Evidence and Baba. Dope as F@#$, hope comes through your city, Don't miss it!

  • well done mr dailey

  • PERECT X 1000

  • Atmosphere> Mainstream

  • @MastaThug212 You are such an ignorant person. Anyone from Rhymesayers is a great lyricist and has more thoughts then your dumbass "rapper" Lil Wayne, who raps about how girls are all over him and how much weed he smokes. People like you make me sick, thinking that because Lil Wayne will make more then Atmosphere it automatically makes him the best. Shut the hell up and stay the hell off any Rhymesayers' page.

  • This never dies ...not like a stupid wiz khalifa song

  • i wish i could take comments off good music on youtube. their all so stupid, its almost funny. i dont care about the way you think hip hop should be. this is hip hop, so is lil wayne, personally i like this and hate lil wayne. but ill still call lil wayne hip hop just cuz i dont think i can put a definition on hiphop, niether can you. so like stop trying to

  • whoaaa whoaa not anotha day...

  • Lets face it guys!! MastaThug is a whiteboy who just thinks hes gangster, even black guys arent THAT 'G' anymore.

  • This is proof Rap is coming back; here to stay I mean.. You know? Theres so much power in rap, if you use it correctly you can really tell stories people relate to and not just "me me me me me me me......"

  • wow @mastathug212 , you're copping a lot of hate. i'd feel sorry for you if you didn't deserve it...

  • Dudes, its just music, not some complicated mystery

  • well fuck all this stupid controversy about who has the best taste in music and shit i fucking love this song helps my mind set at night.

  • wow :)

  • Slug deserves more than he has;but is one of those guys that probably wouldn't take it.Huge respect from Regina,SK CAN.Peace&Love.

  • all I can say is thank you stumbleupon, thank you.

  • @profesionalben haha yes!!

  • If you're a normal working class person and do the same old work routine or routine you can really personalize this song.. Man I used to take smoke breaks and think about how everything seems soo repitious, what a trip.

  • @mixwell1983 For sure I think about this song. It sums that feeilng up perfectly.

  • Damn when I first got into hip hop I never got into Atmosphere because at that time he was a little to well known and I thought you had to be into the most underground shit to be cool... This was back in 1999 but now I'm fucking glad I grew outta that phase because I've never listened to another MC spit such emotion on a track as Atmosphere.. <3 hip hop

  • Damn good shit.

  • HOLY.

  • thats , song , is , true. Deep.

  • This song gave me chills..

  • Not another day, gotta listen to it every day. Vegas love:-)

  • slug's one of a kind, got me to fall in love with hiphop again, nothin but respect, just one thing,, next time you tour in europe ,, be sure to stop in belgium you ass,, we'd love to a lil sluggish time too

  • If you've never heard this nows your chance.

  • lol u see slug at the end? he looks mad nervous or something...i think the audience's applause overwhelmed him

  • i think Sean should do more of his songs like this. with just the guitar and him.

    i think its just perfect

  • @matthewmejia i agree

  • fuckin love hip hop

  • @gotlogg what he said, with penis attached

  • Wow

  • slug is just amazing! His story telling is amazing. He is actually one of the main reasons i decided to follow my dreams and try rapping...if you want, check out my page for some music... hope yall enjoy!

  • that was deeeeeeppp........thnks

  • Epic!

  • Everyone, you don't have to argue with ignorant people; Slug's music speaks for itself<3

  • I guess you've really got to watch it to understand the depth of the lyrics.

  • @MastaThug212 slug > you.

    go bump to some b.s. gucci mane while you're "muggin down niggaz" cause slug would tear you and anyone you listen to apart in a battle.

  • We had the honor of dissecting this song and meeting Slug musically for the first time while searching for indie hop (hip hop). Stop by the operating room if you want insight to the lyrics.

  • prob the greatest song ever

  • Dude. In a course of say music his whole life. He's evolved so much. As a human. You could tell that he was just so angry and everything through God Loves Ugly. Then he started to get a bit easier in When Life Gives you Lemons. He started to chill a bit, and just spit wayyyyyyy more stuff. Not as many puzzles. Then finally The Family Sign he's really really calm. He's just been through a lot. Helps us all be human, ya know? He's finally evolving into seeing everything, and being done. Madrespect

  • this is amazing :)

  • this is beautiful 

  • he is so beautiful. this is the most amazing music.

  • Slug Unplugged

  • man needs his own genre, his songs are so unique and so much meaning. why cant the world be different and this played on the radio.

    im just lucky i stumbled on slug a few months ago, and havent listened to anything since. love his songs

  • Download?

  • Download?

    \

  • not another day.......WOAHHH not another day

    she caught the buss at five oh six thats in the AM for all you little t rust fund kids

  • this song came up in my playlist, and i had to stop what i was doing to listen.

    been an atmosphere fan, but this i havent heard, most of these i havent heard, but this stands out.

  • Kirsten you sexy beast how do you like this song!!?

  • This song is gorgeous.

  • Check this dude out since most of you like niggas with technice

  • Swag!

  • This is pretty fuckin cool. A different take on such a beautiful song, GO SLUG!

  • To anybody giving @MastaThug212 the attention he is wanting. he is simply dissing slug because his mommy and daddy didn't give him enough attention as a kid. damn wanna be blacks. I'm white and i enjoy all hip hop and rap. From slug, atmosphere, and brother ali. To wayne and drake. Stop giving him the attention he is wanting. listen on. SOUNDSET 2011 IN 4 DAYS! THUMBS UP?

  • why the fuck is everyone hating on this @mastathug 212. I like atmosphere but you guys are some uptight bitches. There's absolutly nothing wrong with listening mainstream. Shit this shows you guys don't know anything about hip-hop. So what every song has to have some deep meanig behind it. Fuck that it's about expressing yourself. Besides the best underground artist right now is Lil B a.k.a The BasedGod. Swag! IN BASEDGOD WE TRUST.

  • @fcbmartinsio lol you talking about people not knowing what hip hop is and saying how its about expressing yourself then you go around saying lil b is the best underground artist. there is no best, why are you categorizing their lives like that?

  • @fcbmartinsio its not hating its more giving some of his own medicine we all have diferent taste nobody got to be saying shit bout other peoples taste know whatim saying? we all diferent just accept it. you like lil b i like technique we just gotta learn to accept what it is and its MUSIC.

  • btw u said no ones ever heard of slug? maybe u would hear more about them if you had more than ten friends who arent in a closed circle that perpetuates ignorance between themselves and cant see how empty and meaningless their lives are. just look at all the responses to you homie! either youre a troll who needs attention cause their mommy was shitty or just a kid who is the asshole of their group of friends. either way just gather the shred of selfesteem u have left and just superman that bro

  • @MastaThug212 ur stupid as fuck man. if u know any any real FACTS u would know atmosphere turned down offers from universal, sony, interscope, etc. years ago because all the mainstream is good for is faggots who want quick and short fame. the real OGs do shit by themselves! if u cant respect that then u really should jump up your own ass and die! slug is a role model, not some douche who talks about bitches, hoes, and dances. u r whats wrong with americas brainwashed society. btw atmosphere has

  • @MastaThug212 are u just pissed off cuz ur one of the trustfund kids who have never had to deal with real shit in their lives and thinks itd be cool to tote around a gun? im guessin yeah

    first time ive heard atmosphere was 2day and i lovem:)

  • Just look at his name is explains it all "MastaThug212" so gangster he had to add the 212 in there. I bet thats the corner he sits on in the projects and smokes crack listening to young money. Go suck little waynes dick... we all know you want to!

  • haha if slug is so good, why has nobody ever heard of him? Any rapper in the game hell even soulja boy has a bigger fan base than this bitch boy. If yall want soulful lyrics read a fuckin poem, I want somethin i can bump too when im muggin niggas down who bump this atmosphere horse shit. Yall seriously make me laugh

  • @MastaThug212 Damn you're shitty. Sorry he's trying to say something meaningful instead of selling out like a bitch. You don't make me laugh, you actually make me kinda sad... sad that there are people so ignorant

  • @MastaThug212 shut the fuck up you fake ass bitch nigga

  • @MastaThug212 No one has heard of Slug because his music is far too deep for thick-skulled "thugs" like you. Heaven forbid there should be intelligence and humanity in these lyrics. Those of us who plan on doing something with our lives that doesn't involve welfare will continue listening to Slug's genius. Please, keep being a "thug", end up in prison, and get raped by the guys who killed a little bitch like you to get where they are.

  • @MastaThug212 Masterful Troll. Bravo.

  • @MastaThug212 do me a favor and find someone who listens to atmosphere and try to run your tough guy bullshit i garuntee them and their friends would bitch you and why would you even mention soulja fag on a video like this? your a yeast infected cum bubble of a person if you were really as tough as you claim you would save your words for real life and not waste you breath on the computer where you know your safe pussy....

  • @MastaThug212 you honestley dont understand the conecpt behind hip hop or story telling. maybe you should educate yourself on what the meaning of hip hop is and listen to hip hop by krs1 or is he sucking dick too just like you? please think before you talk and be more of a human being and less of a prick.

  • @MastaThug212 I'm glad you don't like Atmosphere. We don't need ignorant people like you who listen to all this mainstream shit. Atmosphere doesn't need to be as known as Lil Wayne or Wiz Khalifa, because only a limited amount of people appreciate Slug's art. As Slug has said before, "I don't want any stupid fans".

  • @MastaThug212 - It would appear obvious that you're trolling but if you're not then you really have no knowledge of hip hop and it's root and fit the typical more sales = a better MC. That's why I love people who are into hip hop for the realism and not that fake radio/MTV shit telling you who is the "hottest MC" please... youtube "R.A. THE RUGGED MAN ON EMINEM & OBAMA" to see the ideology behind sick underground MCs, they do it for the love of the art not for the $ like your puppet rappers.

  • @mixwell1983 The most mellifluous sonorous rapid rapper/freestyle/battler of all time was Eyedea RIP you are dearly missed. Seems the axiom proves itself 'only the good die young' suppose those manufactured performer fake studio dre. babies will persist eternally. Fame is not talent, femeinem is a joke and gimmick, Micheal was as solid as it gets in skill and fan benevolence sorry to inform ya 8-mile was not a documentary, LEAVE THOSE CANNED PUNCHLINES @ HOME & BRING YOUR MIND TO BATTLE.

  • I don't like transferable fame the type feminem enjoys and disenchanted trust fund brats lap up. If you wanna be a rapper do so, and perhaps he may stick to said path since acting is not his forte though neither is rhyming since he reused the same 5 flows on radio shows to the point that the host would finish his bars for him. Mentioning Partial Blathers or whatever in the same breath as any of the Rhymesayers is just been brainwashed by MtV bells and whistles. Even hear someone say Feminem

  • could have battled EYEDEA, now that I'd pay to see, pure evisceration were those 2 to battle. And all the trust fund brats would have to wipe their tears with $100 bills daddy gave them since that is feminem's market. Rich loafabout douchbags who have a sense of entitlement and unwarranted angst, he is designed to market to them. The very definition of sell-out, and Slug is the one to amalgamate your so called main-stream with lyricism. There are MC's and performers/entertainers like MC's.

  • @jbotos1 - Although Slug amalgamate's my idea on main stream and underground the music comes from his heart not just for the money. I'm not saying you have to be underground to be a sick MC but I'm saying MC's like slug and other well known MC's do it for the love of the art not just the money like most mainstream.

  • @MastaThug212 It's cool man. We got the real music, and your rappers are just fake ass posers. They ain't even legit rappers, just sell outs who use gay ass mixers to make beats. Hell, atmosphere has their own DJ.

    And being a good rapper doesn't have to do with how many people have heard of him. He's good because of his lyrics, the meaning he puts into them. You want beats? Listen to that shitty sell out wannabe mainstream "rap". Atmosphere is for intelligent beings. Not morons.

  • @homegrowntwinkie HAHA You rinsed the shit out of his anus on that one. Good work.

  • @MastaThug212 you should just not comment anymore and listen to Gucchi Mane.

  • I can't believe it took me so long to find this video, damn it's fucking amazing.

  • oh my god....this is amazing

  • If i could've spit words just a tenth as good.

  • @MastaThug212. young money can suck my dick u can join them as well ;)

    sluggers is way 2 sick trick!

  • mainstream faggot! u dont know music! u just follow whats POPular! stay trapped in ur world of false importance cause you cant think for yourself! look at all the hate you get here! loser

  • wow. MastaThug212 - ur a person who values stupid shit like money and hoes. grow the fuck up thats why no one ever takes u serious and probably laughs at you atmosphere has one of the most loyal fanbases of ANY group. young money is composed of Bitch Niggas. and if u honestly disagree YOU my friend are a huge butch nigga!!!

  • Yall some straight up bitch niggaz. This faggot aint gonna do nothin with his career, any rapper in young money is puttin this nigga to shame # Real T

  • @MastaThug212 I'm sorry you think that. You are just a typical brainwashed mainstream music idiot. Young money makes a lot of money, sure, but if you think that's all it's about than you are a sad cliche of a human being.

  • @MastaThug212 Slug has been making music since the mid 90's. Learn something about an artist before you try to criticize them. Unlike your beloved young money Slug makes music that actually is about something. He doesn't write the same repetitive garbage about fucking women, getting money, and killing people. Listen to the song That Night, The Last to Say, and Painting. Tell me he doesn't have serious talent as a lyrical writer. I will listen to 3 songs by anyone in Young Money.

  • @MastaThug212 lmao. his career has blown up. he has a real fan base, as well. not a bunch of monkeys that like a fake ass 5 foot tall bitch crying on a record

  • @MastaThug212 you don't know shit, your exactly the stereotypical ignorant type that doesn't understand intellectual lyrics. Its ok to be intimidated by something you have never heard, im going to take a guess and say that the music you listen to is the same over done crap blabing about gettin hoes, money, drugs, shootin fools, yadda yadda yadda. The Rhymesayers family has more profound respect than your tiny mind could possibly grasp, next time...do some research on the person your doggin.

  • @supermaniac5 wow,I couldn't have articulated any better.Well put.Douche-bags like that guy should be put in a cage as small as their mind is with nothing to listen to,except their favorite hard core gangsta rap song;mofo.

  • @supermaniac5 I don't know shit? I know enough about real hip hop to know that atmosphere is a bitch ass music group and slug is a fucking loser. If he was any good at rapping he wouldnt have to rap about how fuckin hard his life is. Real spittas get paid for their efforts this bitch nigga aint doin shit and never will. Guarantee you Carter IV will sell five times as many copies as any shitty cd atmosphere ever puts out. #Slug Fans go 2 hell
