The expansion includes bonus tracks, acapellas, freestyles, and instrumentals.
The album was originally released on Feb. 23rd, 1999 and was the beginning of something legendary! It was Eminem’s first album with a major record label, Aftermath Productions/Intererscope.
Slim Shady is known to be Eminem’s alter-ego, and arguably, the album was the birth of his success. It featured Dr. Dre and the Bass Brothers, but Shady’s dark humor and torturous stories made the album what it is.
“My Name Is” was the first official single off the album and came in at 36 on the Billboard Hot 100. It even took the ‘Best Rap Album’ award at the Grammys.
The record sold over 18 million copies worldwide and became certified quadruple-platinum. Okayyy!
Interscope even awarded Eminem with his own imprint as we know as, Shady Records.
