Eminem’s voice has a rabid illumination about it he raps with a totally American “give me your attention” accent and he does it well, grasping at feelings that everyone feels on a day to day basis. That anger materializes as Slim Shady the adrenaline junky when the foreboding intro transitions into Low Down, Dirty, a masterful braggadocio piece and that may sound like exaggeration, but if it’s this damn good it has to be an art. We hear the remorseful Eminem, depression weighing down his voice narrating a slew of ill-fated crimes, or rapping a list of things he wished he had but really didn’t because all things considered, he’ll always be a grudging soul in life. Slim keeps a bigger presence on this, but Eminem himself wrote the two greatest songs you can find here, those being the emotional manifestation If I Had and Murder, Murder. With each impeccable beat comes the psychologically defining battle between the famed rapper and his even more famous alter-ego, Slim Shady. If you have the time which I know you do, listen to it. “The Slim Shady EP” is the purest Eminem: gritty, witty, clownish, and downright sad. From the SSEP’s confines a two-faced character will either push you away or make you think twice about how far rap can really go. Here, Em shows us the hilariously edgy persona that allowed him to become a self-caricature. Be advised when listening to this record that the guy who made “Relapse” wasn’t even an idea yet.
Judging by desires to run away with his daughter, steal money and stuff his mother in the trunk of a car it was clear he isn’t your typical MTV act, he was only on that channel because of the insane revenue funneling straight out of his mouth. Up until then at least, but this review is about Eminem’s old ***. One of his records was also the first time I ever heard “skits” used in rap music, and I realized his comedic attraction he is a “lyrical rapper”, a rapper gifted with both flawless delivery and engrossing poetry and boy did he use that present well. "If I had a million bucks, it wouldn't be enough I'd still be out robbin' armored trucks."ĭo you remember the first time you experienced Eminem? I do, and I was in awe, he had to be one of the most sickeningly interesting musicians I’d ever lent my ears to.
