This is a new Atmosphere song called, "Guarantees" from their upcoming CD, "When Life Gives You Lemons, You Paint That Sh*t Gold." vids.myspace.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=vids.individual&videoid=31572962Definitely not your typical rap/hip-hop music, but this is really the kind of stuff that I can appreciate. The Rhymesayers guys, especially Atmosphere, are just so incredibly unique and talented. Just thought I'd share this, as I know there are a few Atmosphere fans here. |

Atmosphere, Saul Williams, and the Roots are the only rap I can stand. Love it.

I like Atmosphere alright, specifically Ant and Slug can write some good rhymes from time to time.

I love Atmosphere, but the statement "most rap music sucks" is just ugh.

I love Atmosphere, but the statement "most rap music sucks" is just ugh. I'm not saying that all rap music sucks, but to be fair, a majority of it is just complete garbage. There are dozens and dozens of rappers who are unique, exciting, and extremely intelligent... But for every one of those rappers, there are 100 rappers who are god awful and are only in it for the fame, money, and sex. |

I like rap. Alot of rappers take credibility out of the name. There are alot of rappers that actually have a meaning in there songs and are great but they dont even get credit because these rappers that sing about gangs,killing, raping, sex, and drugs are taking over.

There seems to be a lot more 'hate' on rap, though. Hate to the point where people won't even give anyone classified as a 'rapper' a chance. |

It does? Rap is awesome.
Aside from people like Soulja Boy and people like him. Its much better than crappy rock music.

I have tuned out Rap, I used to dislike Jay-Z and Nas, but they seem to be the only ones out right now that are worth listening to.
I always have CD's on me so that I don't have to listen to the crap on the radio. 2Pac always hits the spot for me.

Actually, rapping takes a lot of skill, just as much as singing though in a different way.
Like most music styles in recent times, the people who get famous suck, while the amazing people are barely noticed.
That's not always true, but it is a lot these days.
Regardless, I love Atmosphere a lot.

I have a very picky taste in rap. I only really listen to Kanye West, Lupe Fiasco, Jay-Z and Gym Class Heroes as far as rap/hip-hop goes.

It's all taste. I know people always say that music that is about sex, drugs and money is horrible, I honestly don't see the problem in music with that kind of subject matter. There's plenty of bad songs that use that type of material, but there's lots of good ones too.
As for Atmosphere, I'm not a huge fan, but I actually like the song you posted.
