Atmosphere (formerly Urban Atmosphere) is an American underground hip hop group that was formed in 1994, in Minneapolis, Minnesota. In 1998, just prior to the release of the group's first full-length release Overcast!, group member Spawn left the group leaving Atmosphere to be simply a duo between members Ant and Slug.
Slug was a member of a loose group known as The Rhymesayers Collective prior to the formation of Atmosphere. Its other members were Stress (Siddiq Ali) and Spawn (Derek Turner). Slug DJed behind the scenes and let Stress and Spawn handle lyrics. Later calling themselves Urban Atmosphere and garnering some underground notoriety, the group eventually formed a strong relationship with Ant (Anthony Davis) and began collaborating on music. Along with MC Musab (then Beyond), rapper Mr. Gene Poole, and the Abstract Pack they formed the mid-Nineties crew Headshots, with Slug appearing on the underground tape series HeadShots (1-7) . Every HeadShots volume allowed a member of the clique to showcase their talent, and HeadShots Vol. Seven was Slug's tour de force.
Ant produced his first CD,Comparison, for Musab (formerly known as Beyond). He has contributed to every Atmosphere album and has also produced albums for several members of the Rhymesayers Entertainment label. The only Atmosphere album featuring guest producers, including Jel and Moodswing 9, was Lucy Ford: The Atmosphere
EPs. More recently, Ant released a two-part mixtape series titled
Melodies and Memories featuring remixes of songs made in the late '70s
and throughout the '80s. More about Atmoshpere...
