"You" sits on When Life Gives You Lemons, You Paint That Shit Gold, Atmosphere's 2008 album, and it puts Sean Daley in front of a real band. Daley wrote and produced it with Anthony Davis, and the credits fill up with players: Nate Collis on guitar, Brett Johnson on bass, Brian MacLeod on drums and Erick Anderson on synthesizer, with Joe Mabbott recording, mixing and adding a little percussion of his own. The result is warm and loose-limbed, hip-hop played with the windows open.
