His ability to rhyme words just isn't matched in the rap game and this is a good showcase of that. " I try to keep it positive and play it cool // Shoot up the playground and tell the kids to stay in school (Stay in school)" is a prime example of that on 'I'm Shady', as Em again introduces his alter-ego with a catchy hook over this catchy guitar melody and heavy drums - it's probably the funniest song on the album and one of the most hilarious songs I've ever heard.
THE SLIM SHADY ALBUM RELEASE YEAR FULL
You can pick a hilarious line from him in the majority of these songs as it is full of witty one liners, great punchlines, slick wordplay and lyrical acrobats. With funny and controversial lines Em tells us he don't give a fuck while creating an amazing song in the process.Īs for Eminem himself - he is brilliant on this album. 'Just Don't Give a Fuck' has this eerie screeching beat which creates a menacing atmosphere as Em gives us the perfect showcase of Slim Shady.
Em showcases great storytelling and gives us this repetitive, simple yet catchy hook - an incredible song. The beat on '97' Bonnie & Clyde' is an incredible beat, with haunting beat which sets up the eerie atmosphere as Em talks to Hailie about how they're going to hide her mums body - what makes it genius is how effortlessly it was rapped as if he was actually talking to Hailie, " And Mama said she wants to show you how far she can float // And don't worry about that little boo-boo on her throat // It's just a little scratch, it don't hurt // Her was eatin' dinner while you were sweepin' // And spilled ketchup on her shirt // Mama's messy, ain't she? // We'll let her wash off in the water // And me and you can play by ourselves, can't we?". It's a wacky song, iconic and a real sign of what's to come. The first beat we hear is this comical beat on 'My Name Is', which is a prime example of the beats on this thing being comical, as Em introduces his Slim Shady persona with violence and misogyny, giving us some of musics most iconic lines, " Hi, kids, do you like violence? (Yeah, yeah, yeah) // Wanna see me stick nine-inch nails through each one of my eyelids? (Uh-huh)". It may be a bit outdated at times - but it's definitely enjoyable to this day. The key elements of the beats include animated boom bap beats, guitar bass' and just a whole comical feel to it overall. Dre production so of course it sounds class and is full of catchy melodies.
