Whoever said bars are dead clearly hasn’t listened to Atlas Greene before. Admittedly, neither had I prior to a few moments ago, but the lively lyricist displays a profound ability to craft introspective and evocative rhymes. Atlas finds himself on our feed today with his latest release, “I’ve Been Better”, a conflicted new freestyle that’s anchored by a soulful instrumental. Atlas delivers his precise lyrics at a dizzying rate filled with layered meanings and metaphors that will have you running back to press replay in an effort to catch all the game that Greene drops in the brief three-minute time frame.

Enjoy “I’ve Been Better” below.
