A hip-hop group from Minneapolis, Atmosphere centers around rapper (aka Sean Daley). The son of a black father and a white mother who divorced when he was a teenager, Slug became entranced with hip-hop, graffiti, and breakdancing, and formed the Rhymesayers collective (originally known as Headshots) with two high-school friends -- Siddiq Ali (Stress) and Derek Turner (Spawn). After some early gigs as Urban Atmosphere, where Slug DJ'ed behind Spawn's rhyming, the pair hooked up with producer (Anthony Davis) as well as like-minded locals such as MC Musab, Mr. Gene Poole, and the Abstract Pack, forming an underground hip-hop clique dedicated to freestyling, clever and complex lyrics, and anti-gangsta positivity. In 1997, Atmosphere released their debut album, Overcast!, which quickly became regarded as an underground hip-hop classic thanks to Slug's deeply personal, poetic musings, as well as Ant's bare-bones -- but inventive -- production. Following Atmosphere's involvement with supergroup the Dynospectrum (who released a self-titled album on Rhymesayers in 1998) and Slug's participation in another supergroup, Anticon's Deep Puddle Dynamics (whose full-length The Taste of Rain. Why Kneel appeared in 1999), the next Atmosphere album was a 1999 cassette called Headshots: Se7en. The group also began a series of limited releases (often sold exclusively on tour) titled Sad Clown Bad Dub, beginning with an extremely scarce 1999 cassette. A year later, Atmosphere (now down to the duo of Slug and Ant) released the Ford One and Ford Two EPs, followed by the Lucy EP in 2001. Collected as the 2001 full-length Lucy Ford: The Atmosphere EPs, the three EPs were built around the theme of Slug's complicated relationship with his ex-girlfriend, the lost love of his life. As Atmosphere's following increased beyond underground hip-hop circles, they toured consistently, both at home and overseas; while Ant usually didn't accompany the group on the road, Mr. Dibbs of the group 1200 Hobos often joined in behind the turntables while Slug was assisted on the mike by young rappers like the teenaged Eyedea. In June 2002, Atmosphere unleashed , an 18-track effort that returned to previous themes ("F*@k You Lucy"), but also contained the group's most pop-friendly single to date, "Modern Man's Hustle." By this time indie rap superstars, Atmosphere returned with their fourth album, Seven's Travels, in 2003, followed two years later by You Can't Imagine How Much Fun We're Having. Following the album's success, Ant began regularly touring with the group. They continued to put music out during the next couple of years, including the free download Strictly Leakage in late 2007, a near-party album that they followed up with When Life Gives You Lemons, You Paint That Shit Gold in April 2008. The record featured plenty of live instrumentation and guest background vocal spots from Tom Waits and TV on the Radio's Tunde Adebimpe; it was also their highest-charting album, hitting number five on the Billboard 200. The "double EP" To All My Friends: Blood Makes the Blade Holy appeared in 2010, with the full-length album The Family Sign following in 2011. In 2014 the group released the album , which featured the single "Bitter." The following year, Atmosphere celebrated the ten- year anniversary of You Can't Imagine How Much Fun We're Having by reissuing the album as a four-LP set (including instrumental versions of all the album's songs), in addition to The Fun EP, a picture-disc vinyl issue of an EP of You Can't Imagine outtakes that was originally released as a promo CD in 2006. In 2016 they returned with Fishing Blues, an album that featured the single "Ringo" along with guest appearances from MF Doom, Kool Keith, and Aesop Rock. Tracklist: 01. Atmosphere - Jerome 02.

Their seventh album, Mi Vida Local , reflects the ways in which the world–and their place in it–has changed. The idyllic domesticity of the past few records has morphed into anxiety over keeping loved ones safe during turbulent times. The easygoing collaboration between Ant and Slug has started to feel more like the life-or- death intimacy of two men trapped together on a lifeboat. At times, Mi Vida Local is a heavy album, (“I might be the last generation of grandparents,” goes a key line from “Virgo”), but it’s far from grim. As the name implies, Mi Vida Local is intensely focused on the place it was created–the southside of Minneapolis–where Slug and Ant work tirelessly in their “beautiful basements”, refining their sound without interruption, save for a handful of Minneapolis friends that showed up to contribute. The album pairs complex subject matter with equally deep beats–ones that show a clear lineage back to the psychedelic funk landmarks from an earlier era where America was going through a post-utopian hangover, and prove that there won’t ever be a time where boom-bap beats don’t sound perfectly of the moment. Mi Vida Local might be the best album Atmosphere’s ever made. It’s definitely the one they needed to make right now, and one listeners need to hear just as urgently. If it’s sometimes an album about how the fight to find happiness never really ends–even after you get the house and the kids and the artistic freedom to make dad-rap records–it’s also about discovering that there’s happiness to be found just in fighting.

It’s an interactive, online video series for beginning Spanish and completely FREE! It is also one of the few shows out there that’s not super cheesy. My students really get into it and beg to watch “just one more…” at the end of each episode. Mi Vida Loca works well for both in-class viewing and as homework. The packet shown below can either provide accountability for those viewing at home or make it interactive for everyone when watching as a class. There is a LOT of information in each episode, and I found that if students weren’t taking notes/writing down vocabulary, they didn’t necessarily retain the info. I print out the entire packet, and they keep it for future reference since each episode builds on the ones before. Activity sheets for Episodes 1-5 are available as a free download as well! ** Please note that Mi Vida Loca requires flash! Safari and/or Internet Explorer generally work better for showing the series. The episodes themselves (not the interactive format) are also available on YouTube for free.

Slug Unpacks Atmosphere’s New Album & Puts His Rumored Alchemist LP To Bed (Video) Atmosphere dropped their seventh studio album Mi Vida Local earlier this month. It was the conclusion to a trilogy of thematic full-lengths that, according to Slug, “are based around the idea of mortality.” The trio began with 2014’s Southsiders and followed in the form of 2016’s Fishing Blues , before this month’s final installment. Each song on the previous two Atmosphere albums was an introduction to the next release, arriving approximately two years later. “They’re all my ‘get comfy with the idea of death’ trilogy [albums],” details the Minneapolis native. These LPs also focus on family, loss, and challenging times. Slug states, “Just in case anybody ever wanted to put them together, there’s a connection, a stream that runs through all three of them.” Slug and Ant are currently on tour through May. Last week (October 23), Atmosphere, deM atlaS (who just released Bad Actress ), and Plain Ole Bill performed at Brooklyn Steel. Another Rhymesayers artist, Evidence swung through to join Slug for this year’s “Powder Cocaine” after headlining a show across the bridge. The Lioness, who is on Mi Vida Local ‘s “Drown,” also hit the stage. Hours before the show, Ambrosia For Heads caught up with Slug to talk about touring, secret albums, and perhaps more importantly, how life can affect art. The MC who once proclaimed on “Party For The Fight To Write,” “ As a child Hip-Hop made me want to read a book / And Hip-Hop made me want to be a crook / And Hip-Hop gave me the way and something to say, ” was asked about that evolution of that relationship. “Thirty years ago I couldn’t imagine what Hip-Hop would be,” he told AFH Editor-In-Chief Jake Paine during a sit-down. “Thirty years ago I thought we were going to sound like Hieroglyphics forever. I thought we were going to sound like LL Cool J forever. I didn’t know what kind of musicality was going to get involved in this music. Thirty years ago I was still scared grown-ups were right, and this was going to be a fad. Thirty years ago I was still trying to water it and help it grow. I didn’t know it was going to grow to be this un-killable tree that it’s become,” said Slug. “I’m no longer concerned about watering it and making sure that everyone treats it with respect. I’m past that. I don’t give a f*ck how people see or treat it anymore. But I think that just comes with age, man. You become less insecure. And I’m far less insecure about what’s going to happen to Hip-Hop than I was 30 years ago.” Later in the discussion, at about the 28-minute mark, Slug discussed an album that he has previously joked does not actually exist. Tentatively titled Lake Minnetonka , the LP was reportedly made by Slug and Alchemist, using samples and inspiration from Prince. Slug is asked what it would take to let the public hear the project, and what they might hear. “You’d hear 15 songs. [Laughs] You can have it. Go get some [lottery] tickets…technically, it hit a point where it’s just too much sampling, and you can’t replay the sh*t, so what are we supposed to do with it? So I don’t know, maybe I’ll probably—uh—leak it,” he said of the elusive release. Alchemist and Ev’ released their Stepbrothers’ Lord Steppington album on Rhymesayers Entertainment in 2014. “[Fans can] tweet Alchemist and ask him to leak the project. I don’t give a f*ck if he leaks it. For me, it’s just more promotion to this point. All music is just more promotion. I’m on tour, so anything that’ll go get someone out to the show, let’s go. It ain’t my name that is on the production of that, so I gotta let my man do what’s right for him.” Slug continues, “Truthfully, it may be as simple as he thinks [my] rhymes are wack, and that’s why he don’t want nobody to hear it. Like I’ll probably close my eyes and turn around and hear somebody else rhyming on those beats.” Moments later, Slug says, “Also, you know what? Here’s the exclusive: there’s no project with Alchemist. It doesn’t exist; you knew that. Everybody knows that, right?” He then cryptically raises his eyebrows at the camera. Although Atmosphere has a celebrated series of official bootleg releases ( Sad Clown, Bad… ), Slug has recorded almost exclusively with Ant, apart from guest verses. While on the subject of Prince, Slug was also asked what his favorite songs were from the fellow-Twin Cities artist. “It’s too many,” he said. “I don’t know which song would be my #1 Prince song. There’s like 30 #1 Prince songs: ‘Starfish And Coffee,’ ‘1999,’ ‘Little Red Corvette,’ ‘If I Was Your Girlfriend,’ ‘Another Lonely Christmas,’ ‘Sometimes It Snows In April,’ ‘Girls And Boys,’ ‘Kiss,’ pretty much anything pre- Batman soundtrack was my sh*t. Once we got to the Batman soundtrack , it was more hit-and-miss for me. Usually, I liked the album cuts and not the singles at that point.” Mi Vida Local reunites Slug (as well as Ant) with some MCs he worked with in the late 1990s as a member of the Headshots crew. The Dynospectrum, a collective including Slug, Musab (fka Beyond), Micranots’ I Self Divine, and Swift was one of the working squads out if this time. Twenty years removed from a lone LP, Dyno’ appears on the new album (“Randy Mosh”), with Musab alone on “Earring.” Slug explained that importance, “I felt when I was coming up with the idea of the trilogy that the best way to put closure on the idea of mortality was to start and end at the same place. Just like birth, death. [1997 Atmosphere debut] Overcast! , the birth, was at the same time as [The Dynospectrum]. Musab was on Overcast! , back when [he was known as] Beyond. So when I was putting this project together, I was like, ‘Man, it would be tight to put a song on here with Musab, and put a song on here with The Dynospectrum, and just put closure on it.'” Thinking about some, including family, misconstruing the theme, Slug clarifies, “This record isn’t about dying. But is the final of this particular trilogy of mortality. That’s why [I say on ‘Graffiti’], ‘ I wrote this one when I was still alive, ‘ to put closure on that. Then, for the next record, I can start fresh. I don’t have to do anything that has anything to do with what I just did. It took me f*ckin’ five years to complete this weird trilogy. Sh*t. I’m so glad that it’s done.” On video single “Virgo,” Slug proposes that he may be part of the last generation of grandparents. “[The line] definitely [is inspired by] climate change,” he reveals when asked. “The threat of war, sure, that’s there. But I feel like I’ll survive that threat. Whereas, I don’t know if any of us will survive the climate threat. But I don’t know. This is something that I deal with [on Mi Vida Local ] too, which—it’s kind of hidden in there, but part of this album is me actually embracing the fact that some of these things that I spit, some of this consciousness that I’m trying to communicate, man—some of it’s a privilege. It’s a privilege to be conscious. There are people who don’t have the time to stop and worry about the oceans, because they’re too busy struggling with life and what’s right there in front of them.” Slug points out that veganism, for instance, can be perceived as a luxury to many people. “If you can come up with a way to eat like that sustainably, that’s also affordable, let’s chop it up and talk. I’m not suggesting that’s a reason not to spit your knowledge and your truth, but you’ve got to take things into consideration. You’ve got to understand who you’re talking to when you’re saying these things. That’s how you really connect with people. That’s kind of, on this project, what I was trying to f*ck with a lot, was being careful not to just have these bumper-stickers that I’ve got to say, but to make sure that I’m delivering them in a way that, whoever I think that our audience might be right now, can hear it.” Elsewhere in the interview, Slug discussed his hobby of vinyl album collecting. Recalling some recent purchases of a Grandmaster Flash & The Furious Five bootleg and an Isotope 217 record, Slug broadly explains, “My favorite records to find are usually the ones that have been well- loved. Most collectors really look for VG+ and near-mint [condition]. For me, the ones that are a little beat up but still play [are what I want]. You can hear the crackle in it. That lets me know that somebody touched [it], played it in their fingers, f*cked with it, those are my favorite ones. That’s when I go, ‘Okay, this record isn’t just an album. This was a tool for somebody. Somebody did something with this.’ Those are the best ones.” He also recalls his first New York City experience, and compares himself to any car.
