Eff it… let’s keep it going. Here are two more of my favorite Atmosphere records. The first being off Sad Clown Bad Summer #9. An EP the duo released while they put the finishing touches on 2008′s When Life Gives You Lemons, You Paint That Shit Gold. A great reminder that all the troubles can be washed away by being alive. Be thankful for the simple things and your issues will fall to the wayside. The second closes out their 2003 release, Seven’s Travels. A simple story that can be perceived in numerous ways (one of Slug’s greatest gifts). I’ve always thought of it as the conception of the temptations of evil. And no matter the obstacles/situations one is thrown into there is always one place they can go back to. Whether it’s religious belief or a a certain sanity to feel comfort. Then at times I think that there’s a point being made that no matter the decisions he (personally) makes in life, he’s still left without that special someone. But he will continue to make the honest ones and hope for a different ending in the day’s chapter.

Dopest post I’ve seen on this site yet
Great post, I feel slug is one the most underrated rappers in this game…a true artist. Props to Shake for bringing me back to the roots!
atmosphere!!GOD LOVES UGLY // ANTHEM!!
dopeness
My two favorite Atmosphere songs of all-time. Thank you Shake.
*applaud*
always coming back is one of the best cuts ever made.
Number One was my fave on Sad Clown Bad Summer
Shake, you got the MF links mixed up…
Slug is the GOAT
still waitin on lupe…………
Hell yea man Ive had these 2 spinnin non-stop since u guys posted “For All My Friends” the other day. Atmosphere will always be one of the most underrated groups ever.
@ L.Smalls dont talk to Shake about Lupe lol
Modern Man’s Hustle >>
but dope song regardless
Good song choice, but shit, those are what every I-like-atmosphere-but-really-just-because-my-friends-seem-to-like-them person picks as their favorite song, and trust me, there is ALOT of those in MN (not saying you’re one of those people, but there’s definitely been a pattern, mostly the people that know Sunshine and none of their other songs…)
on a side note, I met Ant at The Taste of MN and by instict made him shake my hand instead of pound it (force0of-habbit , because a lot of white people automatically give me pounds JUST because I’m black) He’s a cool dude, my dumbass friend even got him to sign a condom lol
Classic.
best post on 2dope since i been visitin as a regular
gea
Really good stuff. The Sunshine track media fire download is mixed up with Always coming home to you. FYI.
“To all my killas and my hundred dollar billas… To Emo kids who got too many feelings”
Two Slug posts with people talking about their faves and I’m surprised no one has brought up “Woman With the Tattooed Hands” …probably their best song, but that’s hard to call cause like people have been saying they just have so many damn good songs.
Shake I think “Always Coming Back Home to You” is about loss of innocence. He is always trying to return back to his childhood innocence. He walks away from the beautiful woman knowing that men can have great things but they need to take a chance, and he is still not ready to take that chance. He then proceeds to see a lot of things that remind him of his past on his journey back home. Unfortunately (or perhaps fortunately) he cannot return home to childhood innocence completely at the end of the song.
shake, you should track down “God’s Bathroom Floor”, great great song
@m i’m aware of every atmos song there is haha. i just posted a few of my favorites. that i was currently playing. i could easily venture back and make 10 more posts haha.
Sluggo killed it @the Mile High Music Festival!! Same goes foe Nas & Marley…rude boyz
always coming home to you have always been my favorite track. big up.
Sunshine is one of my favorite records period
TC STAND UP
haha yea, shake, I’ve definitely noticed your love for rhymesayers, that was just an observation, since a lot of folk in MN claim they like Atmos just because theyre from MN and end up only knowing songs from Lemons (with the exception of ACBHTY and Sunshine) lol
oh and my personal favorites would have to be Nothin But Sunshine (from Lucy Ford) and God’s Bathroom floor. and I love how they do Tryin to Find a Balance Live with the guitarist singing the beginning.
atmosphere, underated?? they are the biggest non commercial rap group ever….
Yeah I really don’t think they are underrated at all, where I live in Canada they are basically legendary. There are also so many great Atmos songs that it is impossible in my mind to choose one. The Rooster, Guarantees, Scapegoat, RFTC, Angel Face, Say Hey There…
@etrain
Ya atmosphere killed it at the Mile High Music Fest….His new songs were nice. can’t wait for them to come out.
