  • Atmosphere - "Virgo" (Vevo Performance)
    Twin Cities duo Slug and Ant release albums like they’re punching the clock at the office. As Atmosphere, the pair bring a workmanlike approach to their projects: ‘Mi Vida Local’ is their ninth album since 1997, with a few compilations and EP’s sandwiched between. Somehow Slug even manages to operate beloved hip-hop label, Rhymesayers Entertainment, home to underground heroes like Brother Ali, Dilated Peoples and Aesop Rock. Here, in an intimate setting at the Vevo studio, Slug takes on the current climate in America and his own mortality on the Zodiac-tinged “Virgo.” If it’s your birthday, blow out the candles but make sure you don’t waste your wish.
    Executive Producer: Micah Bickham
    Director: Bram Vandermark
    Editor: Colton Fordyce

    I hope people understand this. Its not easy to do what he did just there...not even close. He looked infinity in the eye and stood his own. I havent paid attention to slug/atmo in some time but I need you to know I was there at the start alone on my diskman drinking one of six tall cans in the winter cold, underdressed but warm in spirit thinking about life. Cheers from Canada.

  • @pavelbtn
    @pavelbtn 5 років тому +44

    He might be very talented and lyrical, but most people switch off their minds listening to music - its more about the sound today. That's why artists like Migos make it big, and artists like Atmosphere stay underground

    • @awwwyourehurt2822
      @awwwyourehurt2822 3 роки тому +1

      If only you knew that slug actually appreciates migos and 2chainz hell they were even at the soundset festival put on by rhymesayers. And atmosphere is “underground” by choice personal preferences and privacy. These men are well off and achieved many musical goals.

    LOVE this video and version of the song... Honored to have seen Atmosphere live in Stockholm multiple times, hope to see them again. In any case, thank you Slug for having been an important funny inspiring sarcastic evocative humbling evolving voice throughout more than half of my life as of last year. In this distinctly later era you might actually be making your best music ever which is saying something, at least for my current 35 year old self. In any case, that's one invaluable catalogue to have lived with and grown to. Thank you once again

    [Verse 1]
    I pledge allegiance to myself
    Food, shelter, and health
    Let me find a beach full of seashells to sell
    Put your oxygen mask on first before you offer me help
    I've got receipts made of scar tissue
    Got the vision of somebody going fishing in the dark
    When I start up the motor, it still turns over
    But nowadays, a little bit slower
    Never been afraid of getting older
    I'm much more nervous about these public servants
    Kill the lights and shut the curtains
    You ain't a real lion if you love the circus
    Looking at myself like, "What's the purpose?"
    That's when I started to hallucinate
    Tryna touch the surface and recuperate
    You should've seen the look on my face when I was losing my faith
    Y'all got me feeling hesitation, embarrassment
    I might be the last generation of grandparents
    I know that I've been fortunate for all the opportunities
    Disproportionately disappointed in the human beings
    I get it, we're specks of dust
    At the bus stop busking for extra crust
    Like fuck it, you can sacrifice me to the weather
    If you promise that you'll let my songs live forever
    [Verse 2]
    You're looking for a bag of tricks
    But my love is like a stack of bricks
    Cobblestones and untreated lumber
    I'm a father of fists, strength in numbers
    And when they come for my box of dreams
    I'ma finally depart from this toxic scene
    No posturing, just lots of self esteem
    Got you feeling like the popular queen
    This ain't magic, this is fabric
    And it's the type that never requires patches
    And it's the fire that illustrates with ashes
    It's our life, it's nothing we can't manage
    Lower the arrow and take a breath
    I won't waste ammo aiming at the angel of death
    I might have already left, but they hear me still
    With my pale knuckle grip on a steering wheel
