Description: junpo-40 The Slim Shady CD On The Slim Shady LP, Eminem wants it all. He's conflicted, you see; the world has treated him badly, and he wants to respond in kind. But he isn't a straight-up gangsta--this is, after all, the first release on Dr. Dre's Aftermath Records, his post-Death Row-era venture--and Eminem (born Marshall Mathers) doesn't really want anyone to follow in his footsteps, which leads to some interesting contradictions on this album. In the first single, "My Name Is," he's self-deprecating, rapping about his poor upbringing and his hairy palms. But on the very next song, "Guilty Conscience," he plays the devil to Dr. Dre's angel--that is, until Eminem brings up an incident from Dre's devilish past, rapping, "You gonna take advice from someone who slapped Dee Barnes?" Later, on "'97 Bonnie & Clyde," he turns Will Smith's "Just the Two of Us" on its ear, making it a tale of murder; but on "My Fault," he actually feels bad--though whether it's for the girl he overdosed or for himself is tough to figure out. With his nasal Midwestern tone, Mathers has a clean, clear flow, and the production--by Dr. Dre, Marky, and Jeff Bass--is crisp but consistently fun. With his outlook, it's tough to take Eminem too seriously, but he's made an album you don't have to take seriously to enjoy. --Randy Silver Product Description NEED REF Review Think of [Slim Shady LP] as the soundtrack for a Quentin Tarantino film about the rap underground. -- Los Angeles TimesWith references to raves and dead-end jobs at Builder's Square instead of back-in-the-day block parties and street-corner drug-running, Mathers's hard-knock raps translate hip-hop for folks without Wu-Tang decoder rings, articulating suburban anger and violent apathy through the lens of white kids' experience. -- Spin[Eminem] won't have any problem offending you. In the process, though, he might also make you laugh, shake your behind or scratch your head. -- USA Today Features EMINEM THE SLIM SHADY LP About Us We are a genuine seller offering quality items at lower prices.
