From Amazon.co.uk
On The Slim Shady LP, Eminem wants it all. He is conflicted, you see; the world has treated him badly, and he wants to respond in kind. But he isn't a straight-up gangsta--this is, after all, the first release on Dr. Dre's Aftermath Records, his post-Death Row-era venture--and Eminem (born Marshall Mathers) doesn't really want anyone to follow in his footsteps, which leads to some interesting contradictions on this album. In the first single, "My Name Is", he's self-deprecating, rapping about his poor upbringing and his hairy palms. But on the very next song, "Guilty Conscience", he plays the devil to Dr. Dre's angel--that is, until Eminem brings up an incident from Dre's devilish past, rapping, "You gonna take advice from someone who slapped Dee Barnes?" Later, on "'97 Bonnie & Clyde", he turns Will Smith's "Just the Two of Us" on its ear, making it a tale of murder; but on "My Fault", he actually feels bad--though whether it's for the girl he overdosed or for himself is tough to figure out. With his nasal Midwestern tone, Mathers has a clean, clear flow, and the production--by Dr. Dre, Marky, and Jeff Bass--is crisp but consistently fun. Eminem has some serious skills, and he makes for some great tunes--but the lyrics are as morally reprehensible as they get. --Randy Silver

La découverte rap de 1999 : un Visage pâle virtuose accro à l'humour noir et aux images choc. White trash hip-hop de Detroit, le dénommé Marshall Mathers (M & M, d'où le pseudo) avait sorti un premier album en 1996, Infinite, passé inaperçu. Puis il fut repéré par un homme au flair sûr, Dr. Dre, et signé sur son label Aftermath. Roi de la provoc' et des textes sans concession, Eminem/Slim Shady y va franco : "J'en n'ai rien à battre, Dieu m'a amené ici pour foutre le boxon. (...) Tu m'étonnes que mon cerveau soit niqué, je suis né pendant un tremblement de terre !" Le garnement ne respecte strictement rien ni personne (excepté sa fille Hailie) : drogue, violence, dérives psychologiques en tout genre sont pour lui autant de sujets de plaisanterie, au même titre que le sida. Il n'épargne pas moins ses propres parents et la mère de sa fille, également brocardés sans pitié. Mais c'est surtout son flow preste, mis en valeur par la production sobre de Dr. Dre sur trois titres, qui met tout le monde d'accord. --José Guerreiro
