In this day and age, there's a lot of product on the shelves by so-called rappers (not MCs) who have contorted the artform calling their crap hip-hop. Many major labels engineer this type of garbage to do only one thing: Sell it to a pop industry, media-influenced citizens who consume it because they believe that it is cool. Sadly, it's these brain-washed consumers who allow this trash that flood TV and radio to prevail over REAL artists and Quality music. In a parallel world known as the underground is where the real talent exists. Those with discerning taste in music, who aren't afraid to think outside the box are familiar with what the real hip-hop is about. This album is a one of the many prime examples of how hip-hop is defined. Atmosphere in my opinion has always put out quality records. Rhymes about life and the beats of the streets. Though I may enjoy some aspects of a particular album over another, overall I have never been disappointed with an Atmosphere record. When you can feel the emotion of the lyrics and the mood of the beats, as well as gain the overall picture knowing that these dudes poured everything they had to make a record is something gratifying to a fan. As they would say "Love and Stress compounding." They're is so much to be said about Atmosphere and Hip-Hop. Those who know understand what I'm expressing. In closing..if you don't know, it's best you find out. Lucy FORD is one of those diamonds in the rocks! One last thing, like to thank my Boy for turning me on to Rhymesayers 5-years material ago. My life has forever been changed and will definitely have to see a show one day!!!Read full review
First off, Slug is one of, if not the best white MCs (or any color for that matter)...EVER. Combined with Ant you get Atmosphere, a truly groundbreaking collaboration that has shaped the way REAL hip-hop is nowadays. Now on to this masterpiece of an album. Ever track has some of the most incredible, intellectual rhymes you will ever hear. For example: "They say a pictures worth a thousand words, well I beg a thousand pardons for each word Ive used for personal gain, but the the letters that float through my head to mold my sentences, could NEVER be contained by you simple picture frames !!!!!!!!!" GOOD STUFF, I LOVE IT Seriously though, You need this cd if you like good, real, underground hip-hop. YOU WILL NOT BE LET DOWN 1/2-foOL
