my baby brother 16 at the time now 18. says how he doesnt like all the pupet metaphors. i simply gave him a hug and said youll get it. he came up to me last night i was listening to it. he reminded me and said i get it now.
Good rap isnt just about how many fans there are for the song. This is a classic chill song thats good to listen when your smoking lol. Its somethin you can come home and listen to when your in a pissed off mood or just ready to relax. I love it. But t pain, 50 cent, all that is stuff you listen to in the clubs to get you goin. Its about different styles so chill out people and enjoy your type of style all i gotta say.
atmosphere is hip hop for beginners, its cool to like it if its all you have heard but once you have been exposed to real hip hop its kind of a joke to still listen to atmosphere. My little 14 yr cousin is emo as can be and loves atmosphere but no other hip hop. Its well produced and that is the only reason slug has come so far.
@jfoolify You obviously have no idea what Slug is talking about with any of his lyrics. Sit down and go through some of them. A few of his songs are some of the deepest things I've heard in a long time. Yeah, he has a lot of songs where he is just dicking around, but isn't that part of hip hop too?
And Atmosphere is mainstream? That's HILARIOUS!! Go get some Gucci or Lil Wayne fans to listen to Atmopshere (or god forbid something like Aesop Rock lol) and they wouldn't know what was going on.
@xMisfit17x Dont tell me to listen to gucci mane and lil wayne. I have probably been listening to hip hop since before you were able to talk. When i say real shit i mean the jazzmatazz records, or some slum village, ANYTHING produced by Madlib or dilla, REAL HIP HOP, not this so called "indie rap". And i disagree that there are lots of bros at all hip hop shows, it must just be the ones you guys go to. I hate hip hop noobs that think they know shit.
@jfoolify i dont want to start an argument but slugs albums are for sale at wal mart and target, whats more mainstream than that? And he is on multiple radio stations in my town,not to mention he plays one of the biggest venues here which sells out in 5 minutes, and the crowd? ALL BROS AND EMO KIDS. not alot of bros, all bros. Listen to some hip hop with real soul.and you said yourself its the deepest shit you have heard but then after that you say slug ISNT a genius. ?? just sad this is
@jfoolify what all the kids listen to and they totally ignore all the amazing hip hop that exists like what i mentioned above. REAL hip hop gets no love anymore and its sad, thats all im saying.
@jfoolify I see where you're coming from on this one though and I can tell you know what real hip hop is. I just think you're caught up in some of Atmosphere's stupid fans and it makes the artists look bad. I didn't say Atmosphere is the deepest shit I've ever heard, but some of the songs are really meaningful. It's not just some auto tuned b.s fed over excessive bass.
@xMisfit17x i get what you are saying but atmosphere is bad lyrically, i would argue that until the end of time. Listening to his stupid supposed "meaningful" tracks pissess me off because none of them even actually make sense if you really analyze it. Its not deep, its some insecure guy trying to sound like an intellectual rapper and not succeeding. you need to broaden your hip hop range and then we can talk.
@jfoolify you telling me the guy who wrote "dont ever fucking question that" is real hip hop that is some of the deepest shit you have heard? THAT IS SAD MAN!
@jfoolify What I'm saying is that all of your arguments about Slug are based off of his fans, his venues, and where his CD is sold to form an opinion about his MUSIC.
Just because your emo relative listens to him or his CD is at Wal Mart doesn't put him on the same level as some of these jokers out today that like to think they're hip hop.
@jfoolify Why don't you re-read what I wrote. I didn't tell you to go listen to gucci or lil wayne, I told you to find their fans and see how stupid they are.
@xMisfit17x Atmosphere fans are worse, and im not basing what i said off his fans and venues, though that does reflect alot, im basing it off that i have met him and he was a moron. Hes one of those people who says things that arent accurate in an attempt to sound intelligent because he thinks people dont know, and most of his fans actually dont. On the surface his lyrics may sound deep but they aren't, anyone with half a brain can see that.
@xMisfit17x there is no use arguing because you obviously dont know shit about real hip hop. i said what i had to say, respond if you want but reading it would just be wasting my time.
@xMisfit17x and im sorry to tell you emo is worse than lil wayne and emo kids listen to atmosphere. AND I FUCKING HATE LIL WAYNE LIKE YOU COULD NEVER IMAGINE. And bros listen to dave mathews, and what are atmospheres biggest fan base? BROS!!!!!!!!!!!! Point proven.
also, there is a reason that people who hate hip hop like atmosphere. Its not because he is the best at it. He is just as mainstream as any rapper on the radio. i have heard him on the radio before in fact. Its sad that people say they dont like hip hop but they like atmosphere. Does anyone else not have an issue with that? I mean come on!!!! MF doom is very easy to access and kicks the shit out of this garbage that is called hip hop
There is a reason that atmosphere shows mostly consist of white bros wearing sunglasses indoor. He is not a genius. Read an interview with him, the guys a moron. I have had the pleasure of meeting him multiple times because i know a girl from minneapolis that grew up with him and he isnt very smart. Listen to the stupid shit he says in between songs when he performs. for christ sake. He is good at making stupid people think he sounds smart. LISTEN TO SOME REAL SHIT!
Not just Brother Ali, or aseop rock. All of the groups or people associated with Rymesayers are equal with Slug in brilliance. I just like Slug the best.
@drog34 whoa man...please give these few songs a try, it will surely change your mind...(immortal technique - you never know), (jedi mind tricks - uncommon valor), (eyedea - bottle dreams) r.i.p. by the way...(immortal technique - harlem streets). those i think are some of the most meaningful rap songs i've ever heard, besides 2pac of course. nobody will ever touch me like 2pac has though. long live underground hip hop!!!
It's about people that're bitter because they missed their chance (especially if it's their own fear holding them back) and so they start making shit up to justify it or taking comfort in being bitter -- "Oh fuck them. I don't wanna be famous anyway. They're all puppets."
