God Loves Ugly by Atmosphere is the 2002 album from the RhymeSayers Entertainment group. The two members, Slug, also known as Sean Daley and Ant or Anthony Davis, are right out of Minneapolis. This rap group has had 5 albums released, God Loves Ugly being the second. All the words and lyrics are put together by Slug, the leader of the duo. Ant creates the music and beats for Atmosphere's great sound. In the album, Slug talks of Lucy. A girl he loves, but also a metaphor for many of lifes guilty pleasures. The lyrics are both smooth and flow well together, but also are meaningful and metaphorical. Like their first album Overcast!, God Loves Ugly is more upbeat and not as dark. God Loves Ugly was the first Atmosphere album to have great sales and was more well known than Overcast!. The songs on the albums such as Lovelife, have lines such as "And when I let them carry me to a cemetary I wanna be buried with a pocket full of clarity". Atmosohere has a great album that is fun to listen to at anytime and is worth every penny.
Taylor Swift's new album Fearless, is definatley a country-pop lover pleaser. Her lyrics both boring and girly are ones for the simple minded. Nothing deeper than "Hoping One Of Those Senior Boys Will Wink At You And Say You Know I Havent Seen You Around". This teenage singer may have a lovely voice but her talent in writing is nothing near where her fans believe her to be. At only nineteen, she has many years in front of her to get out an album that isn't full of flowery teenage girl lyrics. Overall, Swift has an amazing voice, but nothing else to back up her popularity but her pretty face. If someone offered the new album to me for free, I would say "No thank you."
