    Sound matters. Sean can write, but his sound is hard to accept. Off-beat often and just not appealing... takes a lot of getting used to. Thus the reason when you play Atmosphere for your friends they're like... uh... ok...

    Pas is in my TOP 3 of WORST hip hop artist EVER! He is right below the Rapping Dalmatians from the movie Brown Sugar.

    Lmao at Deuce saying slug gets off beat and calling him sean like they homies. The reason most people are like uh om the first time they listen to atmosphere is cuz they ain't used to hearing passion and realness

    No, it's because it's not an easy sound to the ears. His voice is odd, his rhyme scheme is inconsistent and off-beat at times, etc.

    It takes a minute to appreciate. Not that it's a bad thing. It isn't cookie cutter. It's nerd rap. Usually isn't commercially appealing. It's the garage band equivalent of the hip hop world.


    And Sean is pretty common, bruh. If you're a fan, you'd know that.

    I like Atmosphere a lot, but this board is really up on their nuts.

    Even Lil Wayne knows that Atmosphere deserves Champagne.

    I'll go though an Atmosphere kick for a few days, but that always spawns off to me listening to Felt, then listening to Murs, MF Doom, CunninLynguists and that spawns off into something else, etc, etc, etc.

    Atmosphere is great, but there is a lot of good stuff out there.

    I do like Grieves more than Atmosphere. Together\Apart is amazing, and Winter & the Wolves shows Grieves taking the next step. Very excited to hear his next album.

    That said, "When Life Gives You Lemons You Paint That **** Gold" is a masterpiece, and I don't think Grieves has hit that level yet (he will though, soon).


    While we're on the subject, I also liked Eyedea more than Slug, but his albums always seemed to be missing something. He was getting there though. Wish he was still alive.
