The Slim Shady LP was originally released on February 23rd of 1999 and was produced by Dr. Dre Detroit’s Bass Brothers. The album broke Eminem out into rap stardom who rapped mostly about his alter ego, Slim Shady. The record sold 5.5 million copies in the US alone. In an interview with the Detroit Times in 1999, Eminem discussed his inspiration behind the music and alter ego.
(People were saying,) “You shouldn’t rap. You should go into rock ‘n’ roll. Why don’t you try alternative? Blah blah blah.” A lot of that s— was pissing me off, and I started releasing that anger in songs.
That’s when I found myself.
