Who is Lucy Ford that Slug/Atmosphere sings about?

I still can't figure it out. Is Lucy Ford (Lucy) the girl (or is it even a girl) that atmosphere sings about fictional, or a past girlfriend of his? His rhymes are so in depth and poetic, the way he speaks about her from song to song, I can't quite distinguish what or who she really is...
Does anyone have any idea or thought about this before?

I think she's an ex-girlfriend that encompasses his hate for all lying, deceptive women. He uses her as an example for his contempt.
I think.

Yeah, that's what I was kinda getting at too I think. I guess noone will never really know for sure, but im almost certain that that is it
Atmosphere makes great music, and Slug is my favorite MC to say the least... I know alot will disagree, but I don't think anyone can quite weave poetic strings of rhyme like he can. His creativity is off the chart.

I hope you've heard of Eyedea.
Or maybe Del the funky homosapian.
Or even Cage.
Slug is actually one of my least favorite MC's, but his honesty is nice.

Eyedea is good too my second favorite, but I like how slug sings about real-life things, and yes his honesty is nice. Eyedea is more into rhyming vs. slugs poeticness. Brother Ali is great too.
5 Stars to you for your good taste in underground hip hop!

Thanks man. =]
Hopefully HellaMeister comes in here and schools us all with hip hop knowledge.
And yeah, Eyedea is more into straight up rhyming. But some of the stuff he says hits so close to home, I can't help but be amazed by him.

to answer the question: she is an ex girlfriend they dated for a long time her name isn't really lucy ford that what he calls her in songs cuz it wouldnt be nice to say her name all over like that. she's a nice lady and yes, she really exists. But Lucy isn't her real name. no she isn't a composite.

I am assuming you are talking about Eyedea and Atmosphere separately. If you are looking for some good Eyedea songs check out a couple albums of his and abilities: E&A Day, First Born, to name a few are good. The first few good songs by him which come to mind are "Now", "Exhausted Love", and "Music Music".

Eyedea stopped rapping all the time to start a rock group called Carbon Carousel. He still has a rap side project called Face Candy wih guests Carnage, Mazta I, and others. mpls hip hop misses Eyedea the rapper. no one has warmed up to the idea of Mikey the rocker dude.
and Eyedea and Atmosphere did play together once upon a time. Eyedea was Slugs back up man on the lucy ford ep tour back in like 00 or 01.
Brother Ali may have an upcoming album drop in the next year or so. As will I Self Devine. peep his Self Destrustion...The Micronauts broke up and I Self is recording solo now...

back in the day eyedea and slug performed together at a few 1st ave shows I went to. (lucy ford, I think, 5th element show, and another one or two)
The real reasaon atmosphere is better than eyedea is DJ Ant>DJ abilities

Eyedea doesnt work with Abilites anymore... Abilities moved to Milwaukee
Ant is the jumpoff for real... his stuff with Bro Ali is hot too.
as for Ant vs. Abilities, i'd say they have different strengths, as a dj Abilites makes raw dj routines, cuttin and scratching, and as a producer and now tour dj, Ant build beats out of samples and drum loops, and focuses less on turntablism (scratchin and stuff)...in my opinion. I like em both for different reasons. (And Mr. Dibbs doesnt tour with Atmosphere anymore. They have ANT and a live band now!!)

Interesting. I did not know that Eyedea and Abilities had separated. Shows how much I follow the underground rap scene these days. I have never been a massive fan of Brother Ali and the Rhymesayers crew. I have always found myself liking the more abstract, like the Anticon and DefJux crews.
