    Em was dirt poor, almost starving to death, unable to provide for his family. This album failed to sell even 1000 copies. He overdosed and almost died in 97. He had to keep going somehow for the next year. Then Dre found the Slim Shady EP completely by chance and signed him. All of a sudden he was the most talked about rapper in the world. He managed to deliver 3 amazing classic albums in this time, but he was struggling to cope with the fame. All this time he had been in an on-and-off mutually abusive relationship. He got addicted to sleeping pills, and a combination of the drugs inhibiting his ability to write great lyrics and some songs being leaked lead to Encore being a disappointing album. He went on hiatus at this point, struggling greatly with his addiction. He tried to re-marry his ex-wife only to end up divorcing her again the same year, and around this time his best friend died. Finally, he had another near-fatal overdose in late 2007. After going through rehab, he's now been 12 years sober and released 6 albums in this time, becoming the only artist in history to have ten consecutive albums debut at number one in the charts. You hear his voice on this track sounding so young and you know all the stuff he's about to go through, but also how he's going to come out of it alright in the end.

      He’s a true prodigy who studied all the greats. Overcame the odds and defeated all his beefs. A true disciple of the nature of hip-hop at its core, all while living as a white male in a black founding culture. He’s not the King of HipHop, but he is one of its Hokages 😭

      The one you mentioned

I've never heard any songs on this album and just attempted to look it up and listen to "Infinite" in the last 30 minutes. This was the first song I looked up. I can't wait to hear the rest.

      It’s because he sounded too much like AZ (and also because it’s hard to get an album noticed of course). Back then, if you sounded similar to another artist, you weren’t taken as seriously. Being unique mattered back then. I think this album failing is one of the best things to happen to him artistically as it led to him creating the Slim Shady persona and sound.

    [Intro: Proof & Eminem]
    Check it out!
    Hey, Kyu!
    [Hook: Eye-Kyu]
    It's a broke day, but everything is okay
    I'm up all night, but everything is alright
    It's a rough week, and I don't get enough sleep
    It's a long year, pretendin' I belong here
    It's a broke day, but everything is okay
    I'm up all night, but everything is alright
    It's a rough week, and I don't get enough sleep
    It's a long year, pretendin' I belong here
    [Verse 1: Eminem]
    One day I plan to be a family man, happily married
    I want to grow to be so old that I have to be carried
    'Til I'm glad to be buried, and leave this crazy world
    And have at least a half a million for my baby girl
    It may be early to be plannin' this stuff
    'Cause I'm still strugglin' hard to be the man, and it's tough
    'Cause man, it's been rough, but still I manage enough
    I've been taken advantage of
    Damaged and scuffed, my hands have been cuffed
    But I don't panic and huff, frantic and puff, or plan to give up
    The minute shit hits the fan, it erupts
    I'm antein' up, double or nothin'
    I've been troubled enough and
    I'm sick of strugglin' and sufferin'
    See, my destiny's to rest at ease
    'Til I'm impressed and pleased
    With my progress I won't settle for less than cheese
    I'm on a quest to seize all, my own label to call
    Way before my baby is able to crawl
    I'm too stable to fall, the pressure motivates
    To know I hold the weight of boulders on my shoulder blades
    I see the golden gates to Heaven on Earth
    Where they don't pull a weapon on you
    When you're steppin' on turf, Kyu
    [Hook: Eye-Kyu]
    It's a broke day, but everything is okay
    I'm up all night, but everything is alright
    It's a rough week, and I don't get enough sleep
    It's a long year, pretendin' I belong here
    It's a broke day, but everything is okay
    I'm up all night, but everything is alright
    It's a rough week, and I don't get enough sleep
    It's a long year, pretendin' I belong here
    [Verse 2: Eminem]
    I'm goin' for broke, gamblin' and playin' for keeps
    Every day in the streets, scramblin' and payin' for cheap
    Prayin' for sleep, dreamin' with a waterin' mouth
    Wishin' for a better life for my daughter and spouse
    In this slaughterin' house
    Caught up in bouts with the root of all evil
    I've seen it turn beautiful people crude and deceitful
    And make them do shit illegal for these Grants and Jacksons
    These transactions explain a man's actions
    But in the midst of this insanity, I found my Christianity
    Through God and there's a wish he granted me
    He showed me how to cope with the stress
    And hope for the best, instead of mope and depressed
    Always gropin' a mess of flyin' over the nest
    To sellin' dope with the rest
    I quit smokin' cess to open my chest
    Life is stressful inside this cesspool
    Tryin' to wrestle, I almost bust a blood vessel
    My little brother's tryin' to learn his mathematics
    He's asthmatic, runnin' home from school away from crack addicts
    Kids attract static, children with automatics
    Takin' target practice on teens for Starter jackets
    I'm usin' smarter tactics to overcome this slum
    I won't become as dumb as some and succumb to scum
    It's cumbersome, I'm tryin' to do well on this Earth
    But it's been hell on this Earth since I fell on this Earth
    [Hook: Eye-Kyu]
    It's a broke day, but everything is okay
    I'm up all night, but everything is alright
