They're both still helping me. An eyedea never dies. Wish I could have met the person behind that mask, but I thank him for his legacy. In my opinion, Eyedea was the most significant mind hip hop lost. I have not been personally affected more by someone I never actually met.

Someone who loved these guys & truly knew how talented they were booked a small afternoon concert in the commons area on the UCLA campus on this fall day in 2001. This is so special! You can totally tell that slug & eyedea were the only true professors on campus that day.

Rest in peace Mikey your legacy will never fade thank you and I'll see you when it rains

Shame on KZread for not recommending this to me sooner.

Might be my favourite performance from either of these two.

God's bathroom floor. To think that Slug wrote it yet Eyedea lived it.

This video/performance lives in my head rent free.

Great video. Classic era for both these guys. Fortunate enough to have seen Atmosphere and Eyedea but of course missed the tour they did together. Great footage, thanks for posting.

Most impressive feat is how Slug has kept the exact same facial hair for his entire adult life

I got to see him this year in tulsa. He freestyled for like 20 mins. I was 14 and my mom picked me up before the show was over. I was so bummed. Slug partied so hard back then. He was lit for the gig

To add, the performance was METICULOUSLY planned and executed... people often talk about this era of hip-hop being somehow lesser than the Golden Eras (which were great), but if you know, you know... for me, it was the greatest ever time for rap music.

Thank you, brought back memories, you captured the back of my head most of show! I remember going to Costa Mesa for their show during that tour as well as the in store performance at the Basement. Thank you!

Amazing, I miss those days... this was real hip hop back then

This is beautiful footage. what a great PA system. Thanks for sharing, ben!

this gotta be one of those videos where someone time traveled to get this amazing footage!

Always has, but they're in particularly good form here. I too have some older (1999 - 2002) footage from them in Santa Cruz and SF, CA, from some graffiti battles that I'd love to share, but just need to transfer the analog footage to digi.
