The Story Of Eminem's First Album

In 1996, Eminem received his first opportunity to create a proper album with the backing of an actual label. This album was the catalyst which Eminem would use to become one of the most successful rappers to ever live... However, it wasn't because the album did well. Join me, as today I tell the story of Eminem's first album, INFINITE.
Also, this can quite possibly be Episode 1 of a new series covering the life of Eminem, by telling the story of each album. If you'd want to see that series, please comment below!

I'd love this sort of "album by album" documentary of Eminem Kinda like what Tim the Fanboy Philosopher did but less review-esque

[@BinRōlGröbb]

Tim is also unwatchable

[@CobySucks]

@@BinRōlGröbb when you say “also” do you mean me too :( [jk i know you’re a regular round these parts Axon]

[@BinRōlGröbb]

​@CobySucks nah cobe u got actual production value great video yet again bro!

[@Punttipate62]

​@@BinRōlGröbbnah his videos are good, just skip the cringe skits

[@kieranallen9892]

Backstabber and Biterphobia are both amazing tracks. Lyrical genius and no one paid attention to him until DRE. One of Eminems best albums 100%

[@SlavkoBubnjevic]

Yooo,would love to see you do these for every album,I'm all for it. I was never a huge Infinite fan (Infinite and Backatabber are dope songs tho),but from SSLP all up to Encore (also D12 albums & 8 mile soundtrack) I was addicted. Not to mention those songs from Invasion 1 & 2 and Anger Management mixtapes,those were pure 🔥

[@SlavkoBubnjevic]

Also,lately I'm getting more and more into Relapse & post-Relapse albums,lots of bangers too,but not like that SSLP to Encore period. Can't wait for the new album!

[@CobySucks]

Relapse is my personal favorite, I understand not a popular opinion in the Eminem critic world but that album was my ultimate childhood album. Encore isn’t as bad as people say at all, I enjoy most of the songs tbh

[@SlavkoBubnjevic]

@@CobySucks Relapse and Kamikaze are my fav from that Relapse-now period. Encore is mostly silly, but I love it. It's not as good as SSLP, MMLP and TES, but has that nostalgic vibe for me.

[@officialFredDurstfanclub]

I agree, would love to see deep dives on the more out there stuff like Encore and Relapse or the contentious stuff like Revival and Kamikaze

[@SlavkoBubnjevic]

July 12th let's gooo

[@LordBacon235-zu4os]

Proof (Deshaun) used to sneak eminem into his school and he’d battle all the kids there

[@DrewHoffman-y3r]

I used to hang out with Hush and Em at the time this dropped. You are correct about pretty much everything here. When he came out with F'n Backstabber everyone said to slow down. When infinite.dropped, everyone told him to stop sounding like AZ. Great work. Subscribed.

[@cmeonbmx]

I bought this album in 2001 from a hood store in a mall in Columbus Ohio I love this always been my favorite record

[@justinjames2436]

please do the full series!

[@tbone8358]

Infinite is his most interesting and best album - also the one with the least amount of information available so thanks for making this video

[@jedsithor]

I got this and the EP as bootleg cassettes in Ireland back in the day. Infinite is very raw, you can tell he's still trying to find his sound. It feels...rushed is the wrong word....but it's like there's a desperation to release everything he's got in his head. Then you get to the EP and you can hear the progression as he's tuning his sound and honing in on what works.

[@nowthisisepic1942]

This is a cool video, bro. You should do this on every album from SSEP to whatever album

[@The_Soul_Intent_Enthusiast]

Nice video! Only thing to note is that Jealousy Woes II is the sequel to an unreleased soul intent track from 1993, called Jealousy Woes

[@CobySucks]

@@The_Soul_Intent_Enthusiast i was curious where the Jealousy Woes 1 went! I had seen people say it was an (unofficial) sequel to an LL Cool J track so that’s cool to know

[@BadringerGronger]

I feel like this album should be in Streaming, and maybe 30th Anniversary reissue that would be cool.

[@aimor0]

amazing video and would love a video on the slim shady ep and so on.

[@Masteroftherailvideo]

I just wanna start off by saying but this was a really cool Dive into Eminem's underground history There is a lot of things that many people don't really know about Eminem's past, for example I still wanna know more about chaos kid and shuch. Also good vid

[@opadawanfr]

I would loooove to watch you make a vid on The Slim Shady EP !

[@CoconutLover911]

I am a hardcore Eminem fan, tryna listen to every eminem song, leaks or features. Infinite is such a nice album, and it makes me very sad to see how Eminem hides every track except for the shitty orchestral version of infinite, I honestly love his old flow and I have not heard much music from after recovery after seeing how shit his new flow and overall style is, records such as fuckin backstabbers, infinite, maxime, and many more of his lesser known or appreciated records need so much more exposure than all of his top music, his skills are shown in these tracks so much better than in anything else. I only say eminem is a top 5 rapper of all time because of the skills he shows in these old albums or even leaked songs, its kinda annoying to see ppl disregard him as one of the greatest but as an Eminem fan its become pretty normal so it dont affect me 🤷‍♂

[@WetbackNoSetback]

18:49 i imagine there is an alternate universe where Eminem ended up becoming the most successful rock star for a while until someone caught him on mic’ saying something racist then for years he struggled in & out of rehab & on reality tv trying to make a comeback that never happened on his death his band reunited, bizzare was still weird in that universe 😂

@@BlackForestKaiser Eminem is easily my favorite, but i forget when i said that lmao

[@BlackForestKaiser]

@@CobySucks Em is the best 110%! if I may one more question what is your favorite Em album of all time I alternate between the Marshall Mathers LP, and The Eminem Show depending on my mood.

[@dartacus.spartacus1988]

Theres actually some good songs on there

[@officialFredDurstfanclub]

Tonite is one of my fave Eminem songs. Yeah it’s super cheesy and the mixing is shitty but I love the bassy beat and the generally chill and optimistic vibe
