Slim Shady LP, The (Parental Advisory) [PA] - Eminem > Reviews > Emincredible!

My first real taste of the rap scene and I loved every beat and lyric of it. A lot of comedy, some commercial and indeed some very dark and perhaps shocking songs; all bursting with intelligent rhymes.

PUBLIC SERVICE ANNOUNCEMENT - Short comedy intro/skit perhaps gives a little taste of what is to come on the rest of the album.
MY NAME IS - The most commercial and perhaps lyrically random song on the album.
'Guilty Conscience' - Great track featuring Dr Dre.
BRAIN DAMAGE - Darker song offering something of an insight into Eminem's childhood.
PAUL - Brief skit.
IF I HAD - One of the more mellow songs on the album. Gritty song reflecting Eminems' 'poor' beginnings.
97 BONNIE AND CLYDE - Very controversial at the time.. a parody of Will Smiths' 'Just the Two of Us' . In this version Em has just killed his wife and is singing to his daughter on his way to dump the body in the sea; the album cover seems to be a visualisation of this.
B**** - Brief skit.
ROLE MODEL - Another Comedy song in the same vain as 'My Name Is'.
LOUNGE - Skit thats leads into 'My Fault' nicely.
MY FAULT - Great song seemingly intended to put people off of drugs.
KEN KANIFF - Cool skit introducing Ken.
CUM ON EVERYBODY - Funky and upbeat song.
ROCK BOTTOM -Serious and for many.. very easy to relate to at times'
JUST DON'T GIVE A F*** Nice track..if slightly crazy! Loved this as a teenager.
SOAP- Brief skit.
AS THE WORLD TURNS - Good track with some great lyrics 'Go, Go Gadget D***' comes to mind!
IM SHADY - Probably my least favourite track on the album, but still enjoyable.
BAD MEETS EVIL - Great Track featuring Royce Da 5'9'' will get your head nodding!
STILL DON'T GIVE A F*** - Great finale to a great album.

The album is still great.. I'm listening to it as I write this review. Every Rap fan, scratch that... EVERYONE should own this album!
