Review by skotedwards May 08, 2008
Dope, Dope, Dope! Ant & Slug are back (after about A MONTH) and they haven't spared a thing when it comes to production, lyrics, packaging & bonus shit, the hard cover book/digipack is stylish & the embossed Rhymesayers Entertainment logo on the back is all class (it ain't called Deluxe Edition for nuthin'). After the release of 'Strictly Leakage' & 'SCBD 9-12' all in the past six months you'd be forgiven for thinking that an album released so soon would be a let down & lack in any substance & depth but nothing could be further from the truth, in actual fact it's the 5 releases just mentioned that contain some of the tracks cut from this LP. When it comes to production Ant has opted for a more synthesized sound than usual and it compliments Slug's storytelling beautifully, what can I say, these 2 are one of the most prolific teams in Hip Hop over the last decade. The limited edition DVD 'SCBD 13' is a great chance to see Atmosphere live with a full band for any of you that happened to miss the 'Atmospheretravel's World Tour' a few years back which had a similar line up, I've tried in vein to describe the gig to friends & they can now see for themselves what I was on about. Slug's clarity in his vocal delivery is amongst the very best MCs not only in the studio but as these two performances mixed together @ First Avenue prove he rocks the shit live and commands your full attention. The children's story book is quite interesting & runs along the lines of the albums content but I think it's a little heavy for your average 4 year old tucked up waiting for a light-hearted bedtime story. To be honest I hate compact discs and the last one I bought was sometime back in the 90's (give me vinyl any day), the only gripe I do have with the album is that I had to purchase it on CD to get the book & DVD, you'd think that bonus material would be limited to the vinyl release for the true heads of Hip Hop Culture, but I wasn't disappointed. 5 stars.
