Every Tuesday, I’m going to bring you on a visual journey through my 100s of band/artist tees! Brandi’s Band T-Shirt Tuesday! Follow along at #BrandisBandTees! 🎶👕🤘🏻
Pictured here, we have a rare sighting..me in something other than black! Repping @Atmosphere! I was in the top 0.1% of their Spotify listeners in 2020 (and let’s be honest…probably every year). Lost count how many times I’ve seen them live, but it’s a soul-cleanse for sure. And no one holds a torch to how cool their merch is!
A friend in Reno put me on to Atmosphere in 2008 (he was a long-time fan), and that’s when they released When Life Gives You Lemons, You Paint That Shit Gold. Since then, I worked my way backwards in their discography, and have embraced Slug & Ant’s changes, growth, wit, and perception. Word-and-beat-smiths at their finest. Without their music, I’d be a fraction of the person I am today.
Most of my Internet bios say, “Atmosphere-lyric connoisseur” because I can rap almost every word from their collection..even down to the LEAK AT WILL EP. I have an embarrassing (or awesome) sex story from another lifetime ago with their song “Reflections,” but I’ll save that for a rainy-day podcast…behind a paywall! 😂
