Big thanks to the Palladium and all the fans. - เพลง
For those who have never been to a concert, Slug actually does this... he walks around the lineup and greets his fans before every show. Hangs out after too.
does he take their stuff too?
True shit
Marian No lol that was part of the music video but it's true, he does say to everyone in line before the show if you get there early. He's great! He'll have a conversation and take a picture with everyone!
True. That’s me at 0.40. the v white blonde in the shorts. Smh for not getting a spray tan that week...
Yep, been there
I was a maintenance manager in a hotel in Waikiki. We put up a lot of bands. I can say unequivocally that Atmosphere's people were the most polite, nicest people I dealt with- and they hold the honor of being the only band we put up that didn't smoke the room! Super nice guys!
Respect. It's a big deal. Especially if you want to be welcomed.
Hell yeah, that sounds about right, the show I went to, there where families with kids in the crowd lol like 2 and 1 year olds in baby carriers with ear protection lmao. What a cool group of people. I've met a few of my favorite artists but none of them seemed as happy to meet me as Slug did. Good vibes lol at the end he said "okay everyone get the hell out, I'm gonna crawl around and find all the joints you dropped" lol that was the end of the show

Atmospheres music makes me a better person
I agree 100% ❤🔥
I will always regret no t seeing them play because I had a panic attack. Got to the show.. it was over ☹️
Your probably just a good person. Naturally gravitate towards this.
Had that same thought a few times
@@foreveryactionthereisacons1683 no way!!!!!!
Slug is using the long line of fans as an analogy for life. Ant walking right behind him, picking some stuff up, leaving some behind, always walking, always observing. It’s life. Sean Daley is a deep man.
jezus fkn christ
It’s about how fortunate he is to have the life he has.
Man, Ant says as much with his beats as Slug does with his vocals....these guys are the perfect combo and as long as they make music the world will be a better place for it.
The human version of peanutbutter and jelly basically.
Absolutely,it pisses me off when I see comments saying"Slugs music saved my life,Slug is this ans that".
It's Atmosphere and Ants production is the guiding force behind Slugs incredible lyrics,they're a group and it wouldn't work without each other!
@@chrisb6484 Relax, homie. I totally believe in giving credit where it's due, but the rest of the world is already hostile enough. Let's keep this space chill and honor the vibes and the message these cats are sharing, yeah? Pretty sure everyone here is a fan and all fans know this team is the most dynamic duo in hip-hop. Peace
❤❤❤
Possibly the saddest line I've ever heard: "the soldier is a dreamer and a realist". Gets me every time.
What do you think hes tryna say here
@@SunnyvaleTrailerParkSupervisor One who dreams of better times. But one who is a warrior and deals with what one is dealt with.
they truly believe that war will fix the world problems
In my opinion, one of the best songs I have ever listened to.
well that's just like, your opinion, man
It has my favorite line “I don’t know much, but I’m confident the fights fixed”
I imagine I'm not wrong for assuming you haven't heard very many of their songs...
Or many real hip hop tracks in general... beware I'm 3/4 PsYcHiC~
@@baronmind954 im from mpls, been listening for 20 years. Use to watch them at gastovs.
i can officially say that ive been an atmosphere fan for more than half of my life
I can say that same and I just turned 44 years last week.
I love how he steals exactly the same items as Steve Martin in the Jerk. Classic
Wow. thanks
He doesn't need anything else just those things.
Well he needs THIS
And this lamp ...and that's all I need
Its a parody of the jerk
Love it
It’s like I grew up with slug helping me with my every decision, anytime a problem in my life came up I knew I could aways listen to one of his songs and my head will make the right steps after. Still one my of my biggest idols
couldn't be more accurate, love this guy till death tears us apart
The atmosphere show i went to, slug actually walked up the whole line saying hello and thank you to every single one of us... so much respect for this guy
Id imagine nothong less ! Listening for few years only...❤👍✌️
I am a metal head...but I love Atmosphere. This song is one of my favorites.
🤘
I love how he is reppin a Death shirt!! Detroit, Michigan in 1971; One bad ass punk album, wayyy ahead of it's time. Respect!!!
My 12 year old son, and my 26 year old daughter and I really enjoyed your show at the Republik last Saturday. My son wants to be a musician, and every time I take him to something like this, I think he is a little closer to achieving his dream. I'm just an old punk from the eighties, but thank you for coming to Honolulu and playing. Your show was very cool. Aloha- Toby
"We're not lucky, but we're fortunate"... La frase de mi vida... Los mejores atmosphere
"I'm pretty sure of it"
❤❤
I feel like Ant pulls hits for the mob when he's not working with Slug
TheWutang1995 hahaha I’ve totally thought the same thing
Hahaha real spit hes way too incognito
Iceman Kuklinski style.
But still cant find a lighter...thumbs up
@@tylerm0089 He should just use the matches that Slug took
"i aint the same as yall. a real friend wouldnt make u take the fall"
"I don't want noone missing me like i miss you"
By far my favorite Atmosphere song to date. I can not stop listening to this song on a daily basis and rapping along with Slug every single word. These lyrics speak bounds further than i've ever known lyrics to push themselves. It's truly amazing and touching. "And all the life we wasted trying to make some bread, might've been better spent trying to raise the dead"
were not lucky, but were fortunate, im pretty sure of it!
"Sometimes life'll tryta break your balls, with a series of missed wake up calls"
Freakin LOVE this guy! #TheAmazingAtmosphere
Been here bumping since 2002
I'll be driving 850 miles from Pittsburgh to Minneapolis this summer just to watch a show at first ave. I love growing old listening to atmosphere, his discography is the soundtrack to my life.
I'm the idiot with the magazine
ya dun good
You lucky SOB.
Was that staged? Why I'd everyone giving him shit
Great job bro, not sure what the poit of any of the video is, but it's sooo cool.
@@jfalconredskins I see it as showing his appreciation for the fans, they're so kind, they'd give the chair they're sitting in if someone needed it.
I remember hanging with Slug and eyedea back in like 2002 before, during and after the concert. I was just a spectator and they hung out at this small venue as if they knew everyone single person. It was not like they hung out with every side clique and just said "hey whats up?". It was more like bullshitting, and finding the time to have deep coversations with each and every group that attended the show.
I cried the very first time I heard this song..no joke.
Lil mama's energy @1:15 was everything in this video to me. The surprise. The presence. The moment.
Surrealism in motion.
This video did nothing but make me smile from ear to ear! All them fans showing nothing but mad love! I dig it!
Thats the best kind of smile :D
Alexis Ortega R.EYE.P
Being pure isn’t easy .. I love you slug
Reality check.. Waiting outside his show outside the odeon theatre the man himself appeared in the street and shook everyones hand said hi and woke up the city with an incredible performancce! Mad love.. Respect! I would like to point out my regrets for not recognizing and being the first person you saw. My bro nadim sadly stole my chance to meet slug s'all good though PL&H
Saw Atmosphere the other night in Chicago. I have a new-found respect for Ant's dance moves. Dude is such a boss.
slug...
sean...
so like 3 years ago my old best friend died in a motorcycle accident in Pennsylvania...Sean Richards...rip.
so at 2:50 when.you said "I don't want noone to miss me like I miss you" I followed it up with 'sean.'
which is weird 2 times because your name is sean and you wrote this song...and cause I really miss my friend Sean, who spelled it the same way.
thank you, slug, for yet again helping me through some of the tough bullshit life has to offer.
paint that shit gold.
Maitiu Jarrett I love you. As a friend, as a teacher, as a student, so we can stand up and walk through this bullshit.
Maitiu Jarrett Paint That Shit Gold!🙌
Maitiu Jarrett We're not lucky but we're fortunate, I'm pretty sure of it.
Maitiu Jarrett iloveyou
I lost my mom yesterday its probably the hardest thing that ive been through
THIS IS THE KIND OF MUSIC THAT TELLS ME TO GO OUT AND BE SOMEBODY
3:10 when ANT shrugs at the guy who just got his magazine taken by SLUGS kills me every time.
Atmosphere forever ❤️
Man the words to this song are soo fuckin amazing. I mean we've all heard expert lyricism from Rhymesayers but I think Slug is able to convey the type of truly positive message better than anyone else.
atmosphere is sooooooooo underrated
từ gia quân get fuuuuccccckkk
Rocking that DEATH shirt !!
i choose to believe that Slug stealing that kids magazine was unscripted
go watch the movie THE JERK and you will see it was scripted he gets everything Steve Martin takes when he hits rock bottom
+no.reply and im picking up a thermos for youuuuuu.
totally shouldve been the chorus.
+deets987 as long as its not an ordinary Thermos hehe... that would of been hella funny
+no.reply i havent seen that, ill have to look it up, i love me some Steve Martin
i believe the first line by steve martin is "i was born a poor black child" lol. definetely one of his best.
is anybody else obsessed with this band? Like I can't get them out of my head.
Franklin Sukmynutz I'm jealous. I would love to have just discovered them. My two personal favorites are Always coming back home to you & if you can save me now. And flicker lol
+Franklin Sukmynutz listen to felt?
yes. loved that project
Boggled my mind how its slow-mo yet his lips are still in sync, such a simple video yet catches your attention so good!! howww was this sorcery even filmed, such a solid video production!
Its magic they dont have to explain shit.lmao
My guess is they had the song play faster when they filmed it and then slowed the video to match the original song.
yeah that's what I also assumed, its just so on point!
I was there, Slug sang at like 4x speed out loud. Then they slowed it down. He had no music in the background to sing to.
James Perez no head phones or ear pieces? he stayed on point if thats not the case
"And that’s all I need. The ashtray, the remote control, the paddle game, this magazine and the chair." Steve Martin, The Jerk. what a genious little inclusion.
I've never heard such a brilliant use of a piano.
this as to be my favorite discovery of 2019... how did i miss that good shit for sooo long
Fucking art.
I just imagine what life would be like if this was mainstream..
Seems peaceful.
9-6-2014. Palladium. Los Angeles, CA. I was there. I was born 9-6-74. Ant was born 9-6-70. Spiritual Synchronicity. ONE LOVE!!!!
I've made it out to see you guys play four times. I've seen you guys on the east and west coast. Caught your show this tour and you guys never fail to put a smile on my face. Thanks for making music that matters.
seen these guys live a couple times! first time i saw em i had no idea who they were. their shows are awesome. so groovy i was an instant fan, loved em ever since.
god bless atmosphere for releasing so many music videos for southsiders. keep em coming!!
Thank you Slug, thank you Atmosphere, and a big THANK YOU to EVERYONE at RHYMESAYERS. Thank you for making music that sings to me, that helps me laugh, cry, and realize my own. The world would be a much colder place with out you all.
I listen to Doing It Stealthy when I'm experiencing existential dread. It makes it worse but... I just can't stop.
3:15 " But no amount of time will ever be considered enough Im tryna teather it up and live forver thru love... We're not lucky , but we're fortunate I'm pretty sure of it. And all that life we've wasted tryna make some bread - Might of been better spent tryna raise the dead."
Love that line!
Mre cords Thank you. hahaha
i dont wanna leave my family tree behind, i dont want anyone to miss me like i miss you.
+DendayCOD Hit my hard in the feels, good friend died and this was one of his fav songs.
+DendayCOD I wonder if he is talking about eyedea or his mother/father.
***** his father,he makes many references in other songs about his dads death
+DendayCOD that's likely true it's about his dad cause he says "family" tree but he also references eyedeas death all the time too. The song Flicker on this album is entirely about eyedea
I love how long ANT is begging for a light
Had to go back and listen to this twice just to soak it all in. Lyrics like these feed my soul.💥
This video makes me smile so hard.
The man's a pure gem ain't he
@Thomas Pynchon even when he's completely not serious he managed to pull off this intense sense of wisdom...I'm like one of the only people in my group of friends you haven't seen him live so as soon as did Us in Kenyan government figure out their problems and stop being butthurt with each other I'm going to the next closest show
Makes me.... Cry. Or something.im not sure..
@Thomas Pynchon wow man.. Like seriously. Is this 2012 Reddit grammer police. I apologize for making a post outside and can barely see my screen.
I just have to say man honestly, I'm fairly certain if Slug read that he wouldn't want you fucking listening to his music dude. taking the time out of your day to make fun of me as if it would actually insult me is pitiful
Now I understand that might be a bit arrogant of me to assume what another man thinks, but ,being a musician myself I certainly wouldn't want a troglodyte pissant who has nothing better to do with his time but mock people online for grammatical errors when knowing nothing about the person..
I can form sentences just fine man. in fact, I daresay I could write better than you, however I don't think I'm better than anybody nor do I think anybody is better than anyone. go ahead and laugh it up with your friends over my response to your comment but just know that it was stupid , and no man that I'm not hating on you I just want you to be better for the next person that you might hurt. Check yourself.. spread love and stop puttin people down. bro
Me too. I love references to The Jerk!! And Sean is so tall and handsome!
Great beat great lyrics great video. Awesome love these guys. Also r.i.p. Eyedea.
I'm checking out Atmosphere to get more in touch with my girlfriend of 2 years. Imagine walking down the street and seeing people who are there to see you. Atmosphere is probably one of the best artists there are for hip-hop.
Ant has his finger on the pulse with this one!
Epic. Atmos is like a seasoned to perfection meat it just keeps marinating and getting better. :)
Weird analogy... but it works!
Hey man, came all the way from Romania to see you guys in London. Really good show, was a bit sad that you didn't play "F@*K you Lucy", but that's just me wanting MORE.
Slug is amazing live, Ant is a beast. So glad I didn't die before seeing you guys perform live. Big up!
Among my favorites, even amongst the classics. Every line of this track hits home! One love
In 2013/14 when I had 100k hot hits on my writing, with 750k google+ hits there facing homelessness sitting on a park bench under a tent in downtown SD under a winter shelter tent swallowing dimes of amphetamines to stay focused with a newborn baby and dreams in the midst of motherly passions, Atmosphere wrote a song to me.
It spoke of my lust, a premie with a cardiac monitor, lines from cosmik comedy, stand up recovery drama sarcasm, and hope.
Though he filled it with hope, they never reached my ears til ghetto hustle had drowned them in despair.
To this day I am thankful straight prose dedicated to me has reached straight on to my love of art.
Thank you. Ant, Slug. Thank you.
J.E. Ayers Brooks
all Rhymesayers fans, i would love to met you all because i need people who i can listen to music with ;3; i need Fam
Come to the Twin Cities!
***** if i had the money to travel farther than my local gas station, i would love to...
are you in 707? come to Dan foley!
Michael Smith Nah man, I live in the upper east coast.
I just realized my fucking typo time to end my life for embarrassment
His reaction to the guy in the polar bear mask is awesome
Hamwick yup lol
I was wondering if he was on mushrooms because that's the only time I have that expression.
I didn't even notice until I read this.. too funny. trippy!
Same!
The guy in the polar bear mask is MF DOOM. He appears in the video as someone in the crowd is wearing a MF DOOM shirt. MF DOOM the GOAT
One of my top favorite videos . I just love these two guys so much. Im such a big fan
I love the reference to the Jerk. This is all I need....and this chair!
We're not lucky but we're fortunate...I'm pretty sure of it...
Now there is a man who has seen some shit and can still somehow make sense of it all....right on Slug, respek the gift...
Being there while they filmed this was amazing.
I was there too. Lol.
Were u guys briefed about the video shoot beforehand or was it spontaneous?
chaosinorderrr i'm curious too!
They had about two white posters saying this was a music video shoot and if we didn't want to be filmed while we were in line, to please let them know. Then the people handing Slug and Ant the things had to sign individual waivers. We went through the entire video about 8 times. chaosinorderrr Rocco Dipoppa
James Perez so, half spontaneous, if I understood well! cool! thanks, James! ^^
love love love
one of the best experiences was seeing atmosphere live.. the feels
went to a show in Ottawa back in the day. Just as the shw is about to start Ant walks down from just chillen up at the top seating area shootin the ish with fans. these guys are GOLD. keep makin music. keep doin your thang
Smile from ear to ear
r.eye.p
You guys were awesome when you came to Fargo last. Now I'm gonna go see you at the Red Rocks in a month. Lookin forward to hearing your new music.
Badlands Edge We saw them in Fargo 2 years ago. It was sick!
Yeah we were there too. Small venue, but it made it that much better.
About to be in Fargo again next month!
everyone looks so happy in this video
I cut a square with ant in 2008ish at lupos. Noone knew who he was. This is when life gives you lemons was out. We actually had no tickets but we greased the doors with money just to see atmosphere. My best friend died a year later from cancer. That night was supposed to happen. I love you both..... I asked ant whats your favorite track on the new album. He said you. I asked what was slugs? He said me
Sick I was at this show!!! Love them seriously
1:27 Some say the tall guy is still standing there with his arm up, waiting for his high five.
Hahaha I didn't even notice that but I went back and laughed my ass off! poor tall guy haha
2:07 awkward fist bump
Watching this music video years later you notice so much new shit, I love it.
Criminally Underrated!!!
I first discovered Atmosphere 7 or 8 years ago, and I've always thought that
This song is even more up to date six years later, stay safe. Much love and blood to you.
Sluggo is real one, for sure.
I was waiting to see him get his thermos.
TheBootGuy it's all he needs.
One of your best. Of many greats.💯🔥✌
It doesn't matter where im at or who's around, word for word, every time. Pure love.
Ant looking for a lighter half the video is funny as hell!
Didn't even realize that lol
he can't seem to light the matches
Sean is wearing a Death shirt!! I always had a feeling he might be into punk
You know that Atmosphere was on Epitaph once upon a time, right?
I was aware of that, I guess it never really clicked. Still, Death. I always have some pride for Detroit when seeing something about them
Semper Li haha fair enough. They were great.
Semper Li yup. that death t-shirt is super cool!
Joe McShan Thats how I got into them, not much of a hip hop fan normally but found them on an epitaph comp
So many details, I love this!
This is one of the best music videos I have ever seen, so simple, but yet so creative and evokes so much.
dude is wearing a death shirt awesome!!
LA Hat is like "Dude just stole my mag! What the hell?!"
This song is pure gold!!!
Ant never got to light the cake! I was wondering how he was going to do it one handed.
Almost feel like I'm watching the jerk.. lol all I need is this chair, these matches , light and this remote. That's all I need! Lol love it 😂
I'm probably just saying this because I am relatively young: To me? This song is every bit as important as "Changes" by Tupac
Best story teller of all time. No question
"And this lamp...That's all I need, and this chair." maybe the best comedy ever
"what do you think I am? Some kind of a jerk or something?"
Haha I love it!! Fuckin Ant. The dude is so mysterious it seems. I don't I've ever once heard him talk, and I tried to research him but found little information. I think the thing that really tickles me the most is that he always looks so classy. Not once have I seen him in videos/performances without dress shoes, and dress pants and slicked hair. Like, just about anyone who's in a Hip-Hop group at least looks a tiny bit like they "like" Hip-Hop, I know that sounds ignorant, but it was the only way I could describe what I'm trying to say. And I think that's why I like him so much, aside from his amazing production skills. He's just doin his own thing and it's awesome. I've just never seen that before in Hip-Hop haha. He kind of reminds me (his looks) of the guy who played the lead role in the movie "The Iceman". Also, is there any track where he's rapped??
You can ways find Ant hanging out before and after the shows. I've probably seen and shook his hand 3 or 4 times. Talked with him a couple other times. Super nice, super cool, actually listens to you when you tell him how much the music means to you and responds in kind.
punkjunkie420 That's so fuckin awesome man!!!! So dope to hear about artists who do that as well, who actually interact fully with their fans. Btw, I love your name dude!! Always cool to see a fellow punk in the hip-hop scene!! Oi Oi Oi!!
***** I just found out about that series after I posted that comment!!!! I had no fuckin idea!! It was good actually. Haven't finished it yet. And I agree dude!!
punkjunkie420 Yeah I met Ant back in June here in Michigan. He was hanging at the bar before they went on stage- totally cool about coming up to him and talking to him/shaking his hand. This dude is the best.
Got my first legal beer at 21 at an atmosphere show @ mesa ampitheater, AZ in line with slug and ant. He's definitely soft spoken, but such a down to earth guy. (well they both are) :]
Ahh I love this video. When the best starts I always get chills.
One of my very favorites!
It's weird because the video is slowed down but his mouth is in sync to the song at regular speed
i
+ReflexEight holy shit I didn't even think about that LOL that's awesome
its an optical illusion
same, I was trippin when this vid poped up random and I tripped even harder!
@ReflexEight I was there. It was shot at normal speed, Slug rapped really fast.They did about 8 takes. Great show.
My friends and i could have died a month ago in a car wreck. cant imagine leaving this world behind
Jebidya willson Fortunate.
Jebidya willson your lucky, I can’t stop thinking about leaving it behind. I’m all about trying to be positive but there are certainly things worse than death, and worse then dying.
Oh gosh, what a shame.
Still say slug is the most clever lyricist I've had the joy of listening to. Thank you Sean and Ant.
was a big hip hop head early 2000s, just getting into it again, man it is so inspiring to see slug still killing it, this is such an awesome video... everyone look up deep puddle dynamics, that was my favorite shit back in the day haha
