  God Would Be An Atheist
The fact that we are the evil at the center of this world, having eaten the apple and killed God’s son, is less important to insecure minds than the fact that we are the center.
We may be bad children, but our father still loves us and if we try really hard to be good he’s going to give us a fantastic present.
Different groups of male-circumcised, mysogynistic, pork-avoiding, semitic-language speakers all convinced that they have the right to violently impose their narrow ugly vision of their mythical ugly god on the world about them.

  Atmosphere: God Loves Ugly: Pitchfork Review   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-07)
And God Loves Ugly is chock full of critic yumminess: "emotionally resonant" lyrics that "betray an inner-vulnerability"; "minimalist" old-school beats that "shimmer" with an "understated grace"; the requisite indie record label that is surely a "breeding ground for unearthed genius"-- you get the picture.
For those of you unfamiliar with the Atmosphere plotline, Slug (born Sean Daley) is the sort of self-depreciating, slacker anti-hero that we've all come to love over the years.
I still have much love for Atmosphere and will be quick to pick up their next effort.

 Atmosphere: God Loves Ugly (2002): Reviews
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.
God Loves Ugly might not be the freshest or most innovative hip-hop album you'll hear, but it does have an edge.
God Loves Ugly ends up as the worst kind of inconsistent album--inconsistent not because of any lack of knowledge, creativity or heart on the part of the artists, but because they can't decide whether they want to use that knowledge to showcase their own voice or mimic someone else's.

Many rappers have dealt with their feelings on topics of love, hate, loss, pain, death, and society on a great many different albums, just most were not compelled to dedicate and entire album to these reflective topics.
“Love Life” is Sean’s stab at existentialism as he sinks deep into the topics of the nature of life and death.
To be accurate, God Loves Ugly is not a poor album, it’s just not a very good one.

God Loves Ugly is more immediately monochromatic, but give the album some time and you'll hear Ant rough his sound up without losing his style.
On God Loves Ugly, though, Slug's tough-guy moves sound as pained as De La Soul Is Dead's: Sure, he can too throw down like that, and he's not bad at it, either.
God Loves Ugly, on the other hand, feels like hip-hop: the brusque party cuts, the embattled, puffed-up defensiveness, the slightly stagy sense that Slug's soul-baring tendencies have taken on now that he's gotten our attention without having to fight quite so hard for it.

 Atmosphere: God Loves Ugly - PopMatters Music Review
The atmosphere of Atmosphere's God Loves Ugly is dark.
If God Loves Ugly is long enough and Slug's lyrics are repetitive enough to make you wonder "what's this guy's deal?", the songs also have a consistency of mood that help make the album feel like one long meditation on a theme, an introspective thought-piece on the struggles of life.
The real pulse behind Slug's rhymes, the element that gives God Loves Ugly its real heart, is the music, courtesy of the group's other member, Ant.

 Printer version: Artist of the Year 2002: Slug of Atmosphere
"God Loves Ugly" probably has sold closer to 80,000, counting the many copies bought at live shows, on the Internet and in underground record stores that SoundScan doesn't reach.
The conceptual theme of "God Loves Ugly," for instance, is that an ugly underdog like him -- who grew up "a lad with a part-time dad" and was "the kid that sat at the back of the study hall" -- can be lucky in life, if not in love.
"Everyone in his life would mistake it as love," he raps in one of the latest Lucy songs on "God Loves Ugly" -- a title that can't be printed here; Slug's music is non-violent but not squeaky-clean.

The tone of the album is set immediately with pre-pubescent children mocking in unison “you’re so ugly, you’re so ugly”.
Slug also addresses acheiving a balance between involvements with new love and attempts at swimming in the world’s drowning pool in “Modern Man’s Struggle.” (A track that incidentally is also the most well put-together track on the disc).
All in all, God Loves Ugly is the hip-hop album of the year.

The tone in his voice throughout the song is so well empathized, and so well drawn out that you can feel his tears, and know why and how hurt he really is.
One song that really throws a spin on this album, and totally changes the mood of the album, is "Lovelife." What Slug is trying to say in this album is, to love life to the very end, because you'll never get it again.
The entire message of the song is so clear, yet so powerful that it makes you think, for a long while, after listening to the song.

The latest Atmosphere release has sparked something of a debate among the bands fans; some love it and some can't stand it.
"God Loves Ugly," as the title implys, further explores the dark side of frontman Slug hinted at on the excellent "Lucy Ford LP." Certainly that will throw off some people because, on the surface level, it makes for a decidedly less 'fun' listen.
Yet "God Loves Ugly" is not without it's merits.

The subject matter, which i almost forgot, revolves around the state of hip-hop and the fact that he struggles to find a balance between being angry and showing his love, which is something many emcees struggle with.
It is easy for any single man to identify with Slug's newfound confidence as he really tries to showcase himself as "god's gift to women" which is something i believe that all good men should do, not because of their bedroom skills, but because of what women REALLY want...
I honestly did not expect an album as good as last year's seminal God Loves Ugly, but instead i got something pretty ill. Though the album has a limited supply of classics, with only a couple of bad songs, i think it is worth purchasing.

 KLUDGE MAGAZINE - Review - Atmosphere: God Loves Ugly
Rate It Minneapolis rapper Atmosphere's fourth LP God Loves Ugly is one of the most talked about underground releases of the year, and also one of this year's best.
Unlike many of the party filled mainstream releases of the year and the many underground releases that concentrate on either a) battling or b) talking about how underground is better, Atmosphere focuses on his own topics, analyzing his life and his purpose for living.
I have God Loves Ugly and that is like tha best album ever and I love it so much Cypress Hill is also good but slug is tha shit!

It is the next song, entitled "The Bass And The Movement", where the problems that lie within "God Loves Ugly" become evident.
The emotion Slug develops throughout the song helps the listener to understand his pain and feelings, making it the classic it is - "I studied my mother, I digested her pain // and vowed no women on my path would have to walk the same".
Perhaps one of the positive aspects of this album, is that it relies heavily upon the listener to decipher, digest and then discover the actual meaning of the poetic masterpieces.

Yet Ugly still might be the record to introduce the duo to "that average 14-year-old girl who hates her parents" who Slug identifies as the next target now that they're a household name with the Fat Beats-savvy set.
With Ugly, Atmosphere succeeds in concocting songs that are meticulously crafted enough for the heads but emotionally honest enough for little Becky from the 'burbs.
Those who love Atmosphere are in deep and those who dont suck.
