Atmosphere is a rap music radical from Minneapolis that centers around doorknocker Slug (aka Sean Daley). The word of a pitch-black father and a white mother wHO divorced when he was a adolescent, Slug became delighted with rap music, graffito, and breakdancing, and formed the Rhyme Sayers Collective with two high school friends -- Siddiq Ali (Focus) and Derek Turner (Spawn). After some early gigs as Urban Atmosphere, where Slug DJed slow Spawn's rhymed, the couple dependent up with producer Ant (Susan Brownell Anthony Davis), as well as like-minded locals such as MC Musab, Mr. Gene Poole, and the Abstract Pack, forming an underground rap music ingroup dedicated to freestyling, cunning and complex lyrics, and anti-gangsta positivity. In 1998, Atmosphere released its debut album, Cloudiness!, which quick became regarded as an resistance hip-hop classical thanks to Slug's deep personal, poetic musings, as well as Ant's bare bones -- just imaginative -- production. The next Atmosphere album was highborn Sad Clown Bad Dub II, a 2000 set originally sold while the mathematical group was on enlistment. (Now out of print, it's a highly sought collector's item). A year later, the chemical group released Lucy Ford: The Atmosphere EP's, a collection of triad EPs built about the theme of Slug's complicated relationship with his ex-girlfriend, the lost love of his life. The radical has toured systematically, both at base and overseas; while Ant usually doesn't come with the group on the road, Mr. Dibbs of the radical 1200 Hobos a great deal joins in behind the turntables and Slug is usually assisted on the mic by whitney Young rappers care the teenaged Eyedea. In June 2002, the radical -- down to the duette of Slug and Ant -- unleashed God Loves Ugly, an 18-track effort that returned to previous themes ("F*@k You Lucy"), simply likewise contained the group's most pop-friendly undivided to date, "Modern Man's Hustle." By this time indie rap superstars, Atmosphere returned with their one-fourth album, Seven's Travels, in 2003, followed two days later by You Can't Imagine How Much Fun We're Having.
