    Atmopshere is still as good as ever.. I can't get enough of his mind blowing tracks. I can't wait to go to the "God Loves Ugly" tour in Dallas!

    RS is fucking retarded, 4 albums? 6/10? BS I doubt they even listened to the lyrics more than once, if even that. Slug is insane. In a good way.

    I only started listening to Atmosphere about 6 months ago, and now he is my favorite. The mix of Slugs voice and the amazing lyrics create a music materpiece. I will never love anyone's music as much as i love ATMOSPHERE'S!!!! PS.- Atmosphere if you happen to read this come play a show in Humboldt County sometime. They would love you up down here!!

    God Loves Ugly is fuckin sweet. It's one of thoes albums you just flow with any time of the day. When I'm down it brings me up because its like I can feel the emotions within Slug as he spits his badass poetry!!

    not for those unable to handle real hip hop, this cd is a work of genious by a master of the verse not stuck in the boundries where most are caught spitting all he feels under the microphones curse

    a all around quality EP. Ants production is just complimented by Slugs delivery and the lyrics are profound in my opinion

    A record that gamely tries to get with mainstream hip-hop concerns. [Listen 2 This supplement, Aug 2002, p.14]
  2. In a hip-hop landscape littered with studio gangsters, pimps on wax, and thugs in need of hugs, Slug proves yet again on God Loves Ugly that the bravest move a rapper can make is simply to be himself.
  3. It's as close to emo as hip-hop gets.
