North Denver, Colorado-based emcee/producer Status the Marlboro Man drops his new track ATLAS, featuring Los Angeles, California Hip Hop heavyweight A-F-R-O

‘ATLAS’ is the new single by Emcee/Producer Status The Marlboro Man & A-F-R-O. ATLAS carries the vibes of the late 90s/early 2000s conspiracy rap of the time – but with updated themes. Listen as Status and A-F-R-O trade verses about secret American policies, racist politicians, genocidal wars, alien cover-ups, nazi-esque ICE raids, assassinations, and more. The theme and mood are sad and dark, but with an uptempo/head nodding beat.

The track is produced by Status The Marlboro Man on the Akai MPC 2000xl, giving the beat a warm and vintage feel. The name ‘ATLAS’ has a double meaning: 1) Referring to the world as a whole, i.e., an atlas, and 2) Referencing the 600-yard-long alien craft that passed through our solar system in late 2025. A fitting name for such an important song. The cover art is by Krookid Hooks and is inspired by poster art from 1950s sci-fi movies.

Status The Marlboro Man has been producing and releasing hard-hitting underground Hip Hop for over 20 years. He has spearheaded the hardcore Hip Hop scene in Denver, Colorado, for years and promotes shows locally at his Italian bar and restaurant. He has worked with many artists such as Sadat X, REKS, Slaine, Son Doobie, Young Zee, Pacewon, El Da Sensei, Timboking, Big Left, and more.

This is his third collaboration with new-school underground legend A-F-R-O. ‘ATLAS’ is the latest single from the upcoming album ‘SMOKE IN THE BASEMENT’ by Status The Marlboro Man, releasing soon in 2026.
