Somebody recommend me some Atmosphere albums to buy from Itunes cause this guy absolutely killed it on stage with Murs, one of the only other underground guys I listen to.

You really can't go wrong with any of Atmosphere's albums, but 'God Loves Ugly' is my personal favorite.

Most Atmosphere fans would strong disagree.

Lucy Ford > Overcast >>> God Loves Ugly > You Can't Imagine How Much Fun We're Having >>> 7's Travels.

There's a ton of b-side stuff, mostly under the heading of Sad Clown Bad Dub (insert various numbers here). The newest one is Sad Clown Bad Summer.

Buy their stuff here: http://www.fifthelementonline.com/ (this is Slug's record store)

Wu really killed it, but for some reason Ghost was not there (although they he was on saturday). One of my favorite parts of the day was Scott Ian from Antrhax (who I've never heard and don't like at all), came out and rocked with PE for a song. Not sure why but I liked it a lot.

I was pretty close (near the gate that surrounded all the security) when rage came on and it really was nuts. It was fun for one song, and then I began to feel unsafe, I was completely at the will of the crowd, I could not do that for a whole hour.

For me it went Wu > PE > Cypress > Rakim > Blackstar.

I agree with Dids review of Atmosphere albums for what its worth.

BTW, I just saw that they put MF Doom's first album on I-Tunes (Doomsday). Its been in and out of print for several years, its a must have for rap fans.

I think RATM is a big reason why the crowd was so white.

Those of you that went, what did you think of Hangar 18?

Rage came on last, and i dont know a thing about them, they did a couple of encores, they were cool even though I didnt know their music. they got a cool sound ill probably pick up an album of theirs.

This is one of the saddest things I've read on OOT in awhile. Rage is why the tickets were so much more expensive this year. Past years the tickets ran around $40ish.

Mos Def (answer hazy in pot smoke please try again later)
Cypress Hill (B)
Wu Tang (A-)
Rage (A+)

killa,

what do you have against Pharaohe Monch? I've been listening to his new album (Desire) recently, and it really isn't that bad, although it doesn't really have an old school hip-hop feel to it and perhaps that is what you enjoy.

It kind of reminds me of Obie Trice actually, very similar flow and voice.

OK nice, at least you did better than my idiot stoner friends who got to NYC from DC as Rage was playing and I talked to them and they were like "Ya we just got to NYC we're going to Rock the Bells! Rage is on right now and I can hear them in the parking lot!"
