Big thanks to the Palladium and all the fans.
Possibly the saddest line I've ever heard: "the soldier is a dreamer and a realist". Gets me every time.
What do you think hes tryna say here
@@SunnyvaleTrailerParkSupervisor One who dreams of better times. But one who is a warrior and deals with what one is dealt with.
they truly believe that war will fix the world problems
@@SunnyvaleTrailerParkSupervisorI think he means that he has big dreams of changing the world but he realizes that realistically his impact will be very very small on history and the world so he "settles for selling his soul to the land of the free". I think the whole point of this song is that we should count our blessings and try to improve the lives of those that we care about. Count your blessings and stop trying to change the world because one man can't really do it despite what Hollywood sells us. Especially because the game is rigged to keep us where we are.
@@SunnyvaleTrailerParkSupervisorThis line comes after he says "the sunshine seems to feel so seamless", which I interpret as saying "people tend to think that life will just keep going on and on". Which is followed by the line about the soldier, which I take to mean that a soldier is a dreamer because they have hopes and dreams, a life they want and want to live, but at the same time, death can happen the next minute because that's what war does. It's saying that life does seem to go on forever when you're young, but soldiers are usually young people, and their lives can end at any moment.
I love how he is reppin a Death shirt!! Detroit, Michigan in 1971; One bad ass punk album, wayyy ahead of it's time. Respect!!!
Lil mama's energy @1:15 was everything in this video to me. The surprise. The presence. The moment.
Surrealism in motion.
slug...
sean...
so like 3 years ago my old best friend died in a motorcycle accident in Pennsylvania...Sean Richards...rip.
so at 2:50 when.you said "I don't want noone to miss me like I miss you" I followed it up with 'sean.'
which is weird 2 times because your name is sean and you wrote this song...and cause I really miss my friend Sean, who spelled it the same way.
thank you, slug, for yet again helping me through some of the tough bullshit life has to offer.
paint that shit gold.
Maitiu Jarrett I love you. As a friend, as a teacher, as a student, so we can stand up and walk through this bullshit.
Maitiu Jarrett Paint That Shit Gold!🙌
Maitiu Jarrett We're not lucky but we're fortunate, I'm pretty sure of it.
Maitiu Jarrett iloveyou
I lost my mom yesterday its probably the hardest thing that ive been through
I've made it out to see you guys play four times. I've seen you guys on the east and west coast. Caught your show this tour and you guys never fail to put a smile on my face. Thanks for making music that matters.
Being pure isn’t easy .. I love you slug
Man the words to this song are soo fuckin amazing. I mean we've all heard expert lyricism from Rhymesayers but I think Slug is able to convey the type of truly positive message better than anyone else.
is anybody else obsessed with this band? Like I can't get them out of my head.
Franklin Sukmynutz I'm jealous. I would love to have just discovered them. My two personal favorites are Always coming back home to you & if you can save me now. And flicker lol
+Franklin Sukmynutz listen to felt?
yes. loved that project
I cried the very first time I heard this song..no joke.
I remember hanging with Slug and eyedea back in like 2002 before, during and after the concert. I was just a spectator and they hung out at this small venue as if they knew everyone single person. It was not like they hung out with every side clique and just said "hey whats up?". It was more like bullshitting, and finding the time to have deep coversations with each and every group that attended the show.
Man, Ant says as much with his beats as Slug does with his vocals....these guys are the perfect combo and as long as they make music the world will be a better place for it.
The human version of peanutbutter and jelly basically.
Absolutely,it pisses me off when I see comments saying"Slugs music saved my life,Slug is this ans that".
It's Atmosphere and Ants production is the guiding force behind Slugs incredible lyrics,they're a group and it wouldn't work without each other!
@@chrisb6484 Relax, homie. I totally believe in giving credit where it's due, but the rest of the world is already hostile enough. Let's keep this space chill and honor the vibes and the message these cats are sharing, yeah? Pretty sure everyone here is a fan and all fans know this team is the most dynamic duo in hip-hop. Peace
❤❤❤
"i aint the same as yall. a real friend wouldnt make u take the fall"
"I don't want noone missing me like i miss you"
"And that’s all I need. The ashtray, the remote control, the paddle game, this magazine and the chair." Steve Martin, The Jerk. what a genious little inclusion.
Boggled my mind how its slow-mo yet his lips are still in sync, such a simple video yet catches your attention so good!! howww was this sorcery even filmed, such a solid video production!
Its magic they dont have to explain shit.lmao
My guess is they had the song play faster when they filmed it and then slowed the video to match the original song.
yeah that's what I also assumed, its just so on point!
I was there, Slug sang at like 4x speed out loud. Then they slowed it down. He had no music in the background to sing to.
James Perez no head phones or ear pieces? he stayed on point if thats not the case
In 2013/14 when I had 100k hot hits on my writing, with 750k google+ hits there facing homelessness sitting on a park bench under a tent in downtown SD under a winter shelter tent swallowing dimes of amphetamines to stay focused with a newborn baby and dreams in the midst of motherly passions, Atmosphere wrote a song to me.
It spoke of my lust, a premie with a cardiac monitor, lines from cosmik comedy, stand up recovery drama sarcasm, and hope.
Though he filled it with hope, they never reached my ears til ghetto hustle had drowned them in despair.
To this day I am thankful straight prose dedicated to me has reached straight on to my love of art.
Thank you. Ant, Slug. Thank you.
J.E. Ayers Brooks
this as to be my favorite discovery of 2019... how did i miss that good shit for sooo long
Among my favorites, even amongst the classics. Every line of this track hits home! One love
god bless atmosphere for releasing so many music videos for southsiders. keep em coming!!
I'm checking out Atmosphere to get more in touch with my girlfriend of 2 years. Imagine walking down the street and seeing people who are there to see you. Atmosphere is probably one of the best artists there are for hip-hop.
atmosphere is sooooooooo underrated
từ gia quân get fuuuuccccckkk
It doesn't matter where im at or who's around, word for word, every time. Pure love.
Sluggo is real one, for sure.
I've never heard such a brilliant use of a piano.
Rocking that DEATH shirt !!
One of my all time favorite songs. Pure poetry
Still say slug is the most clever lyricist I've had the joy of listening to. Thank you Sean and Ant.
Epic. Atmos is like a seasoned to perfection meat it just keeps marinating and getting better. :)
Weird analogy... but it works!
I love the reference to the Jerk. This is all I need....and this chair!
i dont wanna leave my family tree behind, i dont want anyone to miss me like i miss you.
+DendayCOD Hit my hard in the feels, good friend died and this was one of his fav songs.
+DendayCOD I wonder if he is talking about eyedea or his mother/father.
***** his father,he makes many references in other songs about his dads death
+DendayCOD that's likely true it's about his dad cause he says "family" tree but he also references eyedeas death all the time too. The song Flicker on this album is entirely about eyedea
IM SURE THAT SOME TEENS TOLD THEIR DADS TO LISTEN TO THIS RAPPER, THAT THEY WILL ACTUALLY LIKE THIS ONE. I CAN FEEL THAT HIS MUSIC HAS CHANGED PEOPLE FOR GOOD. IN TOUGH TIMES U CAN LISTEN TO HIM AND HE WILL BOUNCE U BACK UP AND GIVE YOU THE STRENGTH TO KEEP GOING. HIS WORDS HIT, YOU MIGHT CHOKE UP OR FEEL THE VIBRATION FROM THE IMPACT OF HIS LYRICS. ITS BEEN A WHILE SINCE I LISTENED TO ATMOSPHERE. HES UP THERE.
"and all the life we waste tryin to make some bread might have been better spent trying to raise the dead"
that´s why i love Atmosphere. They make rhymes that are so simple and yet so deep if you wanna call it that.
When i listened to Pearl Jam´s album "VS" in ´95 or so, the songs felt strangely familiar, despite the fact that i never listened to Pearl Jam before.
Like when you meet someone and you´re on the level immideatly. Like you knew each other for decades.
I have the same feeling with Atmosphere.
everyone looks so happy in this video
We're not lucky but we're fortunate...I'm pretty sure of it...
Now there is a man who has seen some shit and can still somehow make sense of it all....right on Slug, respek the gift...
Is Ant pretty much the coolest person ever? The answer is yes.
I love how long ANT is begging for a light
Sean is wearing a Death shirt!! I always had a feeling he might be into punk
You know that Atmosphere was on Epitaph once upon a time, right?
I was aware of that, I guess it never really clicked. Still, Death. I always have some pride for Detroit when seeing something about them
Semper Li haha fair enough. They were great.
Semper Li yup. that death t-shirt is super cool!
Joe McShan Thats how I got into them, not much of a hip hop fan normally but found them on an epitaph comp
Let's bring it right back to days like these
You guys were awesome when you came to Fargo last. Now I'm gonna go see you at the Red Rocks in a month. Lookin forward to hearing your new music.
Badlands Edge We saw them in Fargo 2 years ago. It was sick!
Yeah we were there too. Small venue, but it made it that much better.
About to be in Fargo again next month!
"I dont want em to miss me like I miss you"
That solidifies it. Slug loves us yo.
Stay up.
Smile from ear to ear
r.eye.p
These dude are really that cool, super down to earth and receptive of their fans. I met them up in Burlington,VT and Ant came over and had a good 10 minute conversation with me and my GF.
Ant has his finger on the pulse with this one!
Oh s*** I remember watching this when it released and I'm here today after watching okay. Can't believe that's 8yrs. Scary 😱✌️
So sophisticated so smooth
1:27 Some say the tall guy is still standing there with his arm up, waiting for his high five.
Hahaha I didn't even notice that but I went back and laughed my ass off! poor tall guy haha
2:07 awkward fist bump
Watching this music video years later you notice so much new shit, I love it.
up to this day I love this song just as much as I did when it was dropped the first day!
The best music of the album for me !
This video makes me smile so hard.
The man's a pure gem ain't he
@Thomas Pynchon even when he's completely not serious he managed to pull off this intense sense of wisdom...I'm like one of the only people in my group of friends you haven't seen him live so as soon as did Us in Kenyan government figure out their problems and stop being butthurt with each other I'm going to the next closest show
Makes me.... Cry. Or something.im not sure..
@Thomas Pynchon wow man.. Like seriously. Is this 2012 Reddit grammer police. I apologize for making a post outside and can barely see my screen.
I just have to say man honestly, I'm fairly certain if Slug read that he wouldn't want you fucking listening to his music dude. taking the time out of your day to make fun of me as if it would actually insult me is pitiful
Now I understand that might be a bit arrogant of me to assume what another man thinks, but ,being a musician myself I certainly wouldn't want a troglodyte pissant who has nothing better to do with his time but mock people online for grammatical errors when knowing nothing about the person..
I can form sentences just fine man. in fact, I daresay I could write better than you, however I don't think I'm better than anybody nor do I think anybody is better than anyone. go ahead and laugh it up with your friends over my response to your comment but just know that it was stupid , and no man that I'm not hating on you I just want you to be better for the next person that you might hurt. Check yourself.. spread love and stop puttin people down. bro
Me too. I love references to The Jerk!! And Sean is so tall and handsome!
The sun comes up at the same time no matter what
Gotta listen carefully to what slug says. If you do, u might learn what this life really is.
"And this lamp...That's all I need, and this chair." maybe the best comedy ever
This is still one of the dopest music videos.
I'm probably just saying this because I am relatively young: To me? This song is every bit as important as "Changes" by Tupac
why does this video give me the feels?
Haha I love it!! Fuckin Ant. The dude is so mysterious it seems. I don't I've ever once heard him talk, and I tried to research him but found little information. I think the thing that really tickles me the most is that he always looks so classy. Not once have I seen him in videos/performances without dress shoes, and dress pants and slicked hair. Like, just about anyone who's in a Hip-Hop group at least looks a tiny bit like they "like" Hip-Hop, I know that sounds ignorant, but it was the only way I could describe what I'm trying to say. And I think that's why I like him so much, aside from his amazing production skills. He's just doin his own thing and it's awesome. I've just never seen that before in Hip-Hop haha. He kind of reminds me (his looks) of the guy who played the lead role in the movie "The Iceman". Also, is there any track where he's rapped??
You can ways find Ant hanging out before and after the shows. I've probably seen and shook his hand 3 or 4 times. Talked with him a couple other times. Super nice, super cool, actually listens to you when you tell him how much the music means to you and responds in kind.
punkjunkie420 That's so fuckin awesome man!!!! So dope to hear about artists who do that as well, who actually interact fully with their fans. Btw, I love your name dude!! Always cool to see a fellow punk in the hip-hop scene!! Oi Oi Oi!!
***** I just found out about that series after I posted that comment!!!! I had no fuckin idea!! It was good actually. Haven't finished it yet. And I agree dude!!
punkjunkie420 Yeah I met Ant back in June here in Michigan. He was hanging at the bar before they went on stage- totally cool about coming up to him and talking to him/shaking his hand. This dude is the best.
Got my first legal beer at 21 at an atmosphere show @ mesa ampitheater, AZ in line with slug and ant. He's definitely soft spoken, but such a down to earth guy. (well they both are) :]
My fave artist and music video of all time
Don't give up Slug...
Don't give up Ant...
Talk about how slugish was that walk with the coldest artist from shit before thought ..,yalls video qualitys gotten dope
I sure miss you guys... Feeling really left out in Florida
Ant looking for a lighter half the video is funny as hell!
Didn't even realize that lol
he can't seem to light the matches
This is one of the best music videos I have ever seen, so simple, but yet so creative and evokes so much.
Thanks for your energy
Big fan of atmospheres music
Almost feel like I'm watching the jerk.. lol all I need is this chair, these matches , light and this remote. That's all I need! Lol love it 😂
So many details, I love this!
This is the best take out of the 13 they did in hopes that Ant would be able to light the cake by the end, just once.
It's weird because the video is slowed down but his mouth is in sync to the song at regular speed
i
+ReflexEight holy shit I didn't even think about that LOL that's awesome
its an optical illusion
same, I was trippin when this vid poped up random and I tripped even harder!
@ReflexEight I was there. It was shot at normal speed, Slug rapped really fast.They did about 8 takes. Great show.
Saw them a few weeks ago in Columbus. About shit when I saw him walking down the line. Best show ever!
This was an awesome night, glad I was able to see him perform that day.
"what do you think I am? Some kind of a jerk or something?"
Watching this in x1.5 for fun and now i'm singing it in x1.5
Beautiful.
Minneapolis is a great place.
+FRIED CHICKEN This is Hollywood. Lol.
+FRIED CHICKEN I wish there was palm trees in minneapolis.
Right, haven't seen any there ;)
well done atmosphere, still blurring lines between genres, always an inspiration, and ANT is a g!
i have come a long way, at one point i only had $85 a month. i bought a gram of meth a pack of smokes and a slurpee and all gone..now i had enough cash to keep my friend and her kids fed during a difficult time
Ahhhh finally! God bless u atmosphere
So like, this video wasn't like acted out? This was an actual concert scene?
its half and half, the stuff people handed him was scripted but this was actually filmed at a concert
He is moving in like slow motion but his mouth is perfectly on time with the words
this might be my favorite song of all time
one of the best song out there.
Took me a minute to catch the _The Jerk_ reference.
Well done!
the video is being played at half the speed lol meaning if you set it to 2x speed, he had to move his lips that fast while filming lmfao
Portland ave! South Minneapolis baby. Love slug
this is still on my playlist
The day you make a video for flickr is the day everybody will cry.
#1 on my funeral playlist😎
Ahh I love this video. When the best starts I always get chills.
always imagined a little girl walking through a crowd holding a single balloon to hand it to you on stage at the end of the video/song when i listen to this
GOAT in my Book.
Then you are writing a great book
Atmosphere giving love to the fans outside the Palladium.. ❤
How many Latinos could there possibly be in Minneapolis?
this was shot in LA
BL-DUB & FRIENDS!
That would explain it. Thanks.
you're welcome!
TheToofpick Yeah it was shot in El Centro & Sunset (I go to the gym on Hollywood & El Centro). Missed Slug (CRAP!!!!)
It was shot in Hollywood outside Hollywood palladium on September 6th. I was in line there for the amazing show that night.
Saw them the night before at the Palladium sad i couldn't make it to this one.
Ant is the Producer man he doesn't have to spit anything, the beats are his flow! ! I met Ant and talked a little bit. He's just a normal dude!!
pretty sad this will be blocked in a couple of hours in germany,fuck GEMA man
use a vpn
I feel absolutely the same.. I hope Rhymesayers can do something about this!
why is it blocked in germany?
Catherine Joyce I also wonder this
so tell us is it blocked
the part where Slug takes that dudes magazine slays me. that shrug
stillllll listening
1:11 look at the girl next to slug..😘😘😍😍
I highly doubt y'all think about sex anywhere near as often as I think about death
Thank you.
3:01 look at that girl
Girl in the black and white stripes at 2:18 is way better :D
Absolute jam.
this video always gives me chills
I like this song.
