GodLovesUgly is a single by Atmosphere, released on November 19, 2002 via 12" vinyl.

The album GodLovesUgly was preceded by Atmospheres's second album, Lucy Ford: The Atmosphere EP's. This album was released in 2001 and was also the only Slug and Ant album with external production (by El P, Jel and Moodswing 9). Atmosphere performed on three separate tours that year: the Ford Two Tour, the Who Killed The Robots Tour and the Fill In The Blanks Tour (with Mr. Dibbs).

'Godlovesugly,' was released in 2002, the sixth year of Ant and Slug's collaboration. Godlovesugly sold over 130,000 copies in the U.S. With festivals in England, Denmark and Sweden, tours as far from home as Japan, sold out release parties coast to coast and their biggest tour to date (sixty shows in seventy-one days), Atmosphere finally had distribution to support their exhaustive touring schedule.

GodLovesUgly was followed up by Seven’s Travels, their fourth album and third in as many years. It sold over 150,000 copies in the U.S alone, putting Atmosphere at the top of the niche underground-independent rap genre.
