    The older I get, the more and more I appreciate Ant and Sean. Their music ages like fine wine. Been a listener since my high school days. And I’m 30 years old now. All I can say is, it’s a privilege to not only know about them, but to have already been to 11 of their concerts. I got a baby girl on the way, too, so I’m definitely going to make sure I pass Rhymesayers on to her. Much respect from PA. Thank you for allowing us to love you, A & S. And vice versa.

      I disagree that their albums are getting better. I find Slug's flow as of late getting more and more boring. But the beats are always great and I still have mad respect for them. It was Atmosphere that turned me on to underground hip hop to begin with so I owe them every bit of gratitude for that. I do really prefer when Slug was spitting more technical flows though. I'll always have the old records for that though.

And I realize that Atmosphere hasn't really changed- they've grown and evolved. That's why their music is still relevant, that's why it's still so enjoyable, and that's why I'm still a fan.

    Ive Been listening to atmosphere since I was a teenager. I Listened to his music to help me get through some pretty real things, and it was there for all the mile stones. Becoming a teenager in highschool, getting high for the first time, Getting laid, discovering myself in my teenage years, and doing stupid things thinking I was lashing out at society, like tagging stuff, The loss of my first real love. the death of my own father at a young age, Working dead end kitchen jobs, battling alcoholism 6+ years ago, meeting the women who is now my wife, the birth of my daughter, and as I got older he just kept dropping these new albums that recorded his own personnal milestones, and it fealt like i was kind of following a pttern, and i wasnt alone. Then I went to see him live about a month ago and it was the best show of my life. It Actually got kind of emotional realizing I wasn't the only one who had been feeling that way. Most of the crowd was in their 30s, 40s, and 50s.
