Emenem had to come out with a very disarming, self deprecating, song due to him being a white rapper in the 90’s where that just wasn’t excepted. His comedy was a way of getting people to put their guard down and accept him, which worked 100%. The last successful white rapper was Vanilla Ice in the 80’s and being white and accepted at that time was not heard of. Having Dr.Dre as his producer basically vouched for him giving him “street cred” that allowed him to be himself without trying to be tough or “Gangsta”. And his comedic style was rare at the time.

There's a reason your dad is underwhelmed by this. He is a mature adult after all. Even as we've gotten older these particular songs don't feel the same. They're just nostalgic. These aren't favorites for Em either. The genius of creating the character and the lead singles for his first 3 albums is one of marketing. They knew the 90's- 00's MTV audience VERY well. Teens & young adults that grew up on Beavis and Butthead. A classic but this reaction is to be expected 😂

@@laus7080 What did it really do, though? He's had a lot of commercial success and his style is complex and unique, but the content really isn't that deep or impactful, IMO. I'd argue that 'College Dropout' alone has had a much greater impact on the culture of hip-hop than Eminem's discography as a whole. Not trying to sound like I'm hating...I get his appeal when you're younger, I just don't know anyone deeply into hip-hop that would put 'Slim Shady LP' (or Eminem overall) on their list of all-time greats. And to be fair, I actually respect that Eminem put on artists like 50 Cent and D12 instead of trying to just be a stepping-stone for other white rappers. I just don't see him as having a huge influence stylistically/sonically on hip-hop artists that came after him.

Dad asks a great question about whether or not you can tell this is Dre producing - at the time, not at all. His work up to that point mostly sounded very west coast and funk-inspired, though at this point he had branched out to producing for more East Coast artists (Nas especially) but in retrospect with where Dre would go musically it makes sense. This track samples the fantastic Labi Siffre's song " I Got The...". I was like your dad on my first listen of this song too back in 99, I was like "I don't really get it." But then the more I heard and understood Eminem, and especially as I got more familiar with the original sample, I grew to really love this song. The line "I lay awake and strap myself in the bed/with a bulletproof vest on and shoot myself in the head" always cracked me up for some reason. And seriously, listen to the original Labi song, it's a legit banger.

@@GoogleAccount00 Well I definitely would know, I lived and breathed hip hop during this time and know what I'm talking about. Let's take it back then shall we? Dre was still producing for Death Row up to 96, after which of course he famously split. Nothing, and I mean NOTHING from this 96 or prior could ever be confused for sounding anything like My Name Is... From there he produced 7 songs on his own The Aftermath record of course, none sounding anything like this. He also produced Nas is Coming off of It Was Written, maybe slightly more minimal than usual but definitely not anything like My Name Is... After that, he went on to produce a bunch of songs for The Firm (another 7 songs in fact) though they were co-produced either with Mel-Man or more often with Chris Taylor so you know DAMN well those songs didn't sound anything like My Name Is... Then he produced King Tee's (underrated) album, again west coast as fuck, and one song on Kurupt's album. Literally NONE of this has any sonic relationship to My Name Is... at all. There are literally only two clues in Dre's producing catalog that gave any clues to Dre even having that sound in his repertoire - Zoom by LL Cool J (Bulworth soundtrack), featuring a Quincy Jones sample, and most importantly to me was when he produced No Diggity and featured that looping minimal Bill Withers sample - that's basically the two only times Dre produced anything APPROACHING the sound on My Name Is... And now to quote Pusha T more than I'm quoting you...if you know, you know.

Eminem released Infinite in ‘96 which “flopped”. He was accused of sounding like Nas and AZ. In Eminem owns words Infinite had too many “soft tunes”. He followed that up with the Slim Shady EP. before signing with Dre. That was where the Slim Shady Alter-ego was born. Songs from the EP made it to his big label debut The Slim Shady LP but were tweaked a little bit.

But crazy to think had Eminem been signed to Psychopathic Records how different music would be today.

Based on how you just explained the significance of Dre in Em's career, you should probably react to I Need A Doctor where Em thanks Dre in the best way he can.

Wow brings back memories. It seems so juvenile now but at the time this was mind blowing. I'm really digging your reactions so far. I'm going to be looking through them.

Eminem’s album The Slim Shady LP was his debut album. He indeed did have an EP called Infinite that was released in 96 prior to the 1999 album

Please do the song business from the Eminem show album. Really want to see dads reaction to that one.

At the time this song was not straight forward. Nobody had ever said the stuff he was saying in his songs. This song literally changed my life lol. I was obsessed with eminem. Captivated me for sure
