    Nah, Slug said they already have the female and the producer and that was right before "When Life Gives You Lemons..." dropped.

      This is just lovely music period.
      Weren't you the main one complaining about Phonte singing too much?

      If I went any bigger, it would not have properly fit with my equipment, so I had to optimize. I'm okay with it, but I also know what I'm missing with those five inches. :)

        I'm starting to like it more with each listen, but it's still not what it could have been. I think the fact that I don't like it that much is related to my age. Maybe I'm just not mature enough to appreciate this album yet. As an 18 year old kid it's tough to relate to everything Phonte is singing about. Its content is dealing with emotions that I just haven't experienced yet. Maybe a few years down the road I'll be able to look back and understand everything Tay put into this album.

          That's what I thought since I remember one of them saying they had a female in mind for the tribute. Who is the producer going to be? Do you know?

            The Atmosphere concert was the best night of my life. I got to meet Slug and shake hands and say hello. He signed a poster for me and it was surreal to meet him in person.

            Blueprint came on a killed it.
            Abstract Rude came on and really killed it.
            Atmosphere came on and I can now die happy.

            By the way there were a ton of hot girls there. Fortunately for me and my buddy we "stuck out" at the concert because Asheville had a "different" male population. Him and I were surrounded by hot girls, it was awesome. Personally I ignored them and focused on Slug because I wasn't trying to do anything anyways...it would've been pointless. My buddy had this gorgeous chick on him all night...good for him.

            I was front row mid-stage and people weren't too happy about it because I'm tall. It's not my fault I'm tall, plus I'm not moving back because that was my shot to see Atmosphere.

            I am usually a pretty reserved guy but last night I broke out the shell big time. I was probably the most enthusiastic fan there and I was rapping every line with Slug. My throat hurts today but it was well worth it.

            Best night of my life

              I don't know if I would call it complaining ( I guess I can see how it came off that way). I did say I would be disappointed, but as the single released and then the LIAB sampler, you can tell my mood changed. I still hop he doesn't just give up on rapping.

              Could be it.. I am 27 and I can relate to a lot of what he is saying.

              Nah no idea. Pretty sure they are trying to keep it a secret for now.

                Glad you had fun Stewaat, reading that reminded me of the first time I saw Atmosphere with POS, Blueprint and RareGroove.

                  Thanks man. I really, really, really hope he does another tour in the future which I think he will. He loves this **** so much and his fan base isn't going anywhere.

                      Wow, that just made my day. My favorite Atmosphere song, and quite possibly my favorite all time. I've never seen it performed with a band. Thanks for adding the vid.

                          To see him performing it about 4 feet from me was the greatest thing in my life. He absolutely killed it man...it was the best thing ever.

                            Foreign Exchange leaked and it's ****ing magnificent. Ok, so there's no rapping...big deal, amazing production that will be in my rotation for at least a few months. Love it!
