Slug is still underground and that’s the way we like it, he gets his props from people who know him, my favourite rapper and storyteller, Ants beats are fire too
BRO..THANK YOUI!!!! slug is by far the best story teller,he can write from so many perspectives and create incrediblenarratives..plus that last line!! so good!!! ..... highly recommend..good daddy..yesterday and became....
I think this is the rap "group" that I have the most songs on playlist from, including solo artists, after going through countless artists discographies. Just superb beats and Slug is so good at his craft. If I had to pick one producer to get a random beat from to freestyle to, I'd probably pick Ant. He just has that vibe that hits me.
Bought this album the day it was released. Had just recently went through a breakup with the mother of my children and I was drinking and popping pills all the time. This song came on and when that line hit saying damn I should have been a better father to my daughter I broke down f****** crying. My children with a little bit of help from this song change my whole world around.
I was an 18 year old kid working my first job in some shitty warehouse during the 2008 financial crisis. Lived in California, gas was $5 a gallon, and I had no idea who I was or who I wanted to be, when a guy at work gave me this album on a burned CD. Took it home and listened to it on my shitty homebuilt computer (I didn't have a CD player lmao), and to this day, it remains one of the most powerful, impactful albums I've ever heard. Slug is absolutely one of the greatest, and he helped me figure out who I am.
i been listening to atmosphere (slug) since his start when i was a child, more people need to realize how amazing he is at lyrics. goood video. I almost remember there being a video for this song, but thats just how good his storytelling is, theres never been a video yet ive seen.
This album is my favorite Atmosphere album. It was the first one I bought. I had heard the earlier stuff but this one really stuck with me. I still bump it often. Slug is definitely slept on as a story telling rapper. Almost no one I know, even knows of him
Yo Check, LoveLife, Saves the Day, The women with the tattooed hands, yesterday, good daddy, in her music box. Slug and Ant are definitely slept on Bro!!!!! One of my Favorites.
LOVE SLUG! I met him years ago in Florida. He was so generous to take a picture with me, and there are very few people I would ever ask to do that with.
That twist at the end is always wild. There's a couple fan made videos out there of this song and they're both incredible. Definitely recommend checking em out.
I remember having that same 😮 moment at the end. Thanks for reacting to this, I would love to see some more reactions of underground stuff like Sage Francis or Aesop Rock.
I commented on this 3 months ago and I can't believe this only has 98 likes! WTF?! Slug is in my top 5 favorite rappers and it kills me that he's so slept on! People need to wake the F up!
This entire album is a fantastic. Guarantee/Me/ Dreamer/the waitress are my favorites on the album. All stories. Another fantastic one, Little Man. Real deep shit.
Love the channel....another great reaction video, man! Not sure if you've already done one, but Puppets is another great track. Love to see you react to it.
Why doesn't atmosphere get any real love outside the local Minneapolis scene. I grew up watching slug at cafe's, underground parties, music at the park, 1st Ave and the like. Es still doing it, but why doesn't he get the recognition he deserves? You should react to his latest.. "Bigger Pictures"
Nah he’s totally slept on. It seems a lot of people just don’t dig him for some reason. Gods bathroom floor is an amazing track about substance abuse struggles. Check it out if you haven’t!

I couldn't have said this better. Ant is good. I grew up with this and Aesop Rock from nyc
The jaw drop is everything this song was meant to do! Great reaction man 🤘
Thanks for doing this man. Please do more Atmosphere. They do not get the credit they deserve.
Agreed. Love Slug
BRO..THANK YOUI!!!! slug is by far the best story teller,he can write from so many perspectives and create incrediblenarratives..plus that last line!! so good!!! .....
highly recommend..good daddy..yesterday and became....
that would be a mad short story if you read it...but the fact he's threaded it together with some of the best bars and word play...
His song modern mans hustle is my favourite and has been in my everyday playlist since 2004
That and The Woman with the Tattooed Hands. Slug is my heart, for real.
On the real both songs are everyday bangers.
I think this is the rap "group" that I have the most songs on playlist from, including solo artists, after going through countless artists discographies.
Just superb beats and Slug is so good at his craft.
If I had to pick one producer to get a random beat from to freestyle to, I'd probably pick Ant. He just has that vibe that hits me.
I’m admittedly not big into hip hop, but slug has gotten me through the absolute darkest of times. A true talent.
This is one of the best albums from him to me. Great story telling.
Reppin Minnesota! Slug is a beast! god loves ugly is still one of my favorite albums!
Ain’t slept on by me…he’s my favorite rapper hands down.

Same .. since I was a senior in HS in 97... But now... As an old man who has been kicked around by life .... His music hits so much different

This is factual. In my top 5.
For 20 years I've been wondering how and why no one knows about this mans genius
@@waynepowers7213 it's wild
from beginning to end great album.
SLUGs a beast! Great with a pen and can freestyle. He used to freestyle with Eyedea. LOVE Atmosphere! LOVE SLUG AND MURS on FELT albums too. 🔥
Ps. There's a music video for this song. 😉
Pps. Atmosphere - Little Man
Felt - Woman Tonight
Or Felt - Dirty Girl
Must listens.
Like Today and Always Coming Back Home to You are still two of my favorite slug stories... of the list of many
Such a great storytelling track… one of my favorites off of the album.
I'm so happy that I can really hear someone appreciate Slug. This man changed my life as a kid.
"Yesterday" is another Atmosphere track where the last line changes the song entirely.
Yo Check, LoveLife, Saves the Day, The women with the tattooed hands, yesterday, good daddy, in her music box. Slug and Ant are definitely slept on Bro!!!!! One of my Favorites.
Atmosphere - insomnia or wooden ships is by far my favorite songs.
Thanks for the awesome reaction vid!
Man I got into atmosphere back in the late 90s when slug and ant first came out. so underrated.
I was waiting for that final bar … that was the exact reaction I expected haha it was exactly how I felt too 😂
LOVE SLUG! I met him years ago in Florida. He was so generous to take a picture with me, and there are very few people I would ever ask to do that with.
He’s a good dude. I’ve rocked a few shows with him
@@BlackPegasusRaps Ant is solid too. He'd kick it outside with fans before the show.
That twist at the end is always wild. There's a couple fan made videos out there of this song and they're both incredible. Definitely recommend checking em out.
Atmosphere is my fav all time.
I remember having that same 😮 moment at the end. Thanks for reacting to this, I would love to see some more reactions of underground stuff like Sage Francis or Aesop Rock.
I never believe when people say "I've never heard this one." But, I do believe you. Great video. 👍

Best living lyricist on earth!
If i could ❤ this a million times I would. Respect minnesota.its her father. The video is intense.
"kinda reminds me of dance with the devil" you gotta 'like' for that comment alone my dude! such a good comparison!
One of my fave albums of all time
WLGYLPTSG
Also of note, this album CD came with a children's story with the lyrics on alternating pages
It’s So true ! And about that immortal technique song dance with the devil , it’s some serious shit!
One of my all time favorite albums
Thank You For You!
Is this finally someone that recognizes my 🥈 and favorite bands for the lyrics. ugh fire Jurassic 5 and atmosphere are my two favorites
I have every single album from them ant and slug are legends
Good to see u back on the youtubes P
LFG!!
I’ve been a long time slug fan! His catalog is insane..
Waitress is my favorite song and Yesterday is a close second for a similar reasons
Slug and Ant. Way too overlooked
Also Danny Boone from Rehab. Super dope storytellers
This entire album is a fantastic. Guarantee/Me/ Dreamer/the waitress are my favorites on the album. All stories.
Another fantastic one, Little Man. Real deep shit.
The reason I watch these reactions 😢
Love the channel....another great reaction video, man! Not sure if you've already done one, but Puppets is another great track. Love to see you react to it.
the reaction we all wanted
I know I’m a little late but atmosphere is one of my favorite and I have damn near every one of their LP vinyl
Slug is super under rated 💯
Trying to find my balance is probably my favorite
Saw them live 🎉🎉🎉🎉
Atmosphere albums were so fucking formative for me and my tastes. He basically spoiled 50% of hip hop for me that came after God Loves Ugly.
No keep going for stories he to me is the goat because he actually speaks to real relationships vs partially real
Early slug was so good.... "Overcast" to me is a top 5 album
When you heard that last bar ... Perfect 😂😂
definitely underrated
Slug is the GOAT
God loves ugly is 1 of my favorite albums!
Good Stuff!! Welcome back Fam!!
Bad Bad Daddy is a dope Atmosphere song.
Hell yeah!
DJ!! what’s up
@@BlackPegasusRaps nothing much man! Just got back to Commiefornia after driving to the Grand Canyon and Vegas.
Fire!
Been listening to Slug since I was in diapers, I can say he got me into hip hop
Great album!
Why doesn't atmosphere get any real love outside the local Minneapolis scene. I grew up watching slug at cafe's, underground parties, music at the park, 1st Ave and the like. Es still doing it, but why doesn't he get the recognition he deserves? You should react to his latest.. "Bigger Pictures"
Nah he’s totally slept on. It seems a lot of people just don’t dig him for some reason. Gods bathroom floor is an amazing track about substance abuse struggles. Check it out if you haven’t!
II believe Ant had beats with samples but he reproduced those samples live and took the samples out. I could be mistaken though
Off topic, Heard someone on timcast irl give you a shout out the other day.lol stay blessed!
Tom Waits is beatboxing on this track.
You should definitely do the song “became” by atmosphere next. It’s such a good one that i think is underrated from his music.
🔥🔥🔥💯💪
Wish you would react to more Atmosphere and Aesop Rock
If I remember this song, correctly, the waitresses is his daughter….😮
A non lethal dose of emotional poison
Dude check out the woman with the tattooed hands on Lucy ford
While i agree fully with Slug being up there for storytellers in hip hop, but i would add Brother Ali in that category as well
Most definitely
Way late to this one, but you really gotta listen to Brother Ali - Dorian if you like this story style.
Oh! And another song of his, Nine Double Em
Try The Skinny from the same album. Think of it from the perspective of prostitutes and pimps, then a second listen thinking about cigarettes
You should do some Aesop Rock reactions...
and if this one gets you Little Man by Atmosphere is even better. Prob my fav from him.
The waitress is his mother
Great reaction!
Could you please do Little Man by Atmosphere?
😪😥😓💔
i have been a bum and can tell you, the younger you are the worse it is. for reasons you dont think
