About

1997 was a tragic year for hip-hop. The loss of legend Biggie Smalls, only seven months after fellow legend Tupac Shakur in 1996, sent shockwaves throughout the nation, bringing the East Coast-West Coast rivalry to a head. But, as all this occurred, a three-man group made up of lyricists Sean "Slug" Daley and Derek "Spawn" Turner, along with producer Anthony "Ant" Davis formed in the frigid twin cities of Minnesota. They called themselves "Atmosphere"

The result of this formation would be one of the most important EP's in the underground hip-hop scene. It really helped spark Rhymesayers Entertainment, which would grow to be one of the biggest underground hip-hop labels of all time. Also, it helped launch Atmosphere to new heights. While Spawn would eventually leave the group, the duo of Slug and Ant became a pillar in the underground, and remain so today. – Sputnik Music
