don't really care for either anymore, but i never cared for sage, voted slug only cause he's still got a few classics in my mind

I don't listen to either willingly, but Sluggo takes the cake for sure. I bitch and complain whenever I'm with someone and they have Sage Francis playing. Only exception being Non-Prophets.

slug, lucy ford is one of my fav albums. And most of his other work is great. Only thing i still play from sage is hope.

sluggo, no question.

the first time i heard atmosphere was lucy ford. i moved away from mpls and when i returned to visit friends, atmosphere had emerged and my buddy gave me a burned copy and slug has been the dopest in my opinion ever since. sage is alright but no where near slugs level cuz sean is one of a kind.

slug+1[/i]

A Healthy Distrust was a better album than any album Atmosphere or Felt have done.

That said, Slug connects better whereas Sage seems to always be on a pedastal (no "that's the reason for the high horse"). So I vote Slugworth.

Oh, but just to throw it in there, Sage is the (much) better live performer. But Slug is great in his own weird way.

These two need to do their own tour again soon. Bring Buck along as well.

If you don't get the hype, then try to peep Slug's earlier shit, like the Sad Clown series, Overcast and Dynospectrum. He was on some next-level shit back then. Not to knock his later work, but the shit back then was way ahead of it's time. Still sounds good today even.

As for Sage, just could never get into his shit. Respect him as an artist but just don't dig the style or sound.

I agree 100% on the Slug point. He rapped real good on some boom-bap battle shit back in the day.

But, I find it kinda funny you say that, because Sage had some real dope, straight up rap rap rappin' shit earlier in his career too.

I never thought Slug sounded that good on that shit. Thought he didn't come into his own til Lucy Ford. He sounded too young/rappity to me back then.

Now he knows what he's doing, even when it's too rappity.

i agree the rhymes that slug had on the dyno are insane. i still cant figure otu how he came up with some of that shit.

I like both artists a lot. Both have been pretty consistant. Both have made music I can't stand. Both have made much more music that I enjoy. Both have even made music that's some of my most played. Both are career artists who, even when they make msuic I don't necessarily dig, I still respect it. Both I will always check for.

To me, this came down to their live shows, which I have to give to Sage by a margin more narrow than Mia Farrow's Sparrow's Sombrero. Strictly personal preference.
