ORIGINAL POST (3/29/2019): In his two-decade career, Marshall Bruce Mathers II, better known as Eminem, stunned audiences and critics alike with vivid and sometimes disturbing imagery, rapid-fire delivery, and lyrics that were as witty as they were personal; as tongue-in-cheek as they were acerbic.
This year marks 20 years since Eminem released his major-label debut, The Slim Shady LP, which launched him from the underground rap scene to worldwide superstardom. With iconic songs like "My Name Is," "Role Model," and "'97 Bonnie and Clyde," The Slim Shady LP introduced the world to Eminem's undeniable and enduring talents. The album was a smash hit. Its lead single, "My Name Is," reached No. 36 on the Billboard charts; the album won a Grammy for Best Rap Album, and it was eventually certified quadruple Platinum by the RIAA.
To celebrate the 20th anniversary of The Slim Shady LP, Aftermath, Interscope, and UMe have released an expanded digital edition that includes the original album, as well 7 bonus tracks. Among them are a capella versions, alternate mixes, instrumentals, and other rarities--many of which make their digital download/streaming debut here.
The collection is available now to stream and download from your preferred service. We've included Amazon links below, along with a full track listing!
