Customer Ratings & Reviews

This is one of Eminem's better cds. Every song is good.

Very good album from one of the best rap artist period.

Picked up this cd with a few others and I'm really glad with it.

Great introduction to marshall mathers. 1st disc. Love it

I wasn't overly happy with this one as it had a lot of his songs from other albums, and some others that I didn't like as much as Recovery or Curtain Call

this was a gift. its what he asked for. I myself prefer different music, I could listen to it for awhile. to each own.

Bought this cd for my son,he listens to this type of music

I am not a fan of rap music, but I knew what I was getting into.

This cd was all about shock. The random filthy that comes out of his mouth is crazy. If you can get past all that he does sound good.

Way to promote violence and references Eminem is a D bag

This was purchased for someone else.################

This debut from Eminem is pretty much the predecessor to his storied music career. If you became a fan or were introduced to Eminem through his later albums, this of course is a bit different in terms of delivery and the actual way he raps (By Recovery there was an obvious switch).

Eminem, The Slim Shady LP, released in 1999. Bought it in a Best Buy store in August, 2016 for $6. 20 tracks, appears to be the standard original release from Aftermath, Interscope, and Web Entertainment, though the wrap around the jewel CD case had a stamp saying "Made in Mexico." All artwork and liner notes were in English and seemed to identify it as the original 1999 release. Slim Shady LP in 1999 and Marshall Mathers LP in 2000 are the two albums that made Eminem famous and cemented his status as an all-time great MC. Around the time of Slim Shady LP, his lyrics and delivery were captivating in such a unique way compared to his mainstream peers. His rapping and songwriting style changed after these two albums, which was IMO for the worse. The tracks produced by Dr. Dre on Slim Shady LP are excellent ("My Name Is", "Guilty Conscience", "Role Model"). The Bass Brothers produced most of the others; I happen to like their production, but I imagine their beats are not for everyone. Only two features on the album, one from Dr. Dre on "Guilty Conscience" and one from a young Royce Da 5-9 on the excellent "Bad Meets Evil," a track which was the origin of Eminem and Royce subsequently forming a duo under that same name. Aside from the usual profanity, misogyny, hedonism, idolatry, etc. that is pervasive in mainstream rap, Eminem was prone in this era to going overboard with a few instances of horrorcore tracks that I find thoroughly unenjoyable. These tracks are made all the more disturbing by the fact that he is such a gifted storyteller. There are probably a couple moments like that on Slim Shady LP, though the most notable example, "Kim", is from Marshall Mathers LP. Otherwise, this is a classic album full of classic tracks.

With a style like Red's and beats by Dre, you can't lose.
