Listening and to work on the phone back with my phone and I’m trying my phone to call me and I’ll let y’all chill and I can get you back there soon baby
@@chillerstones some of us really cant spend money on music :p, especially we who listen so much different music and different genres. yeah, there sure are some subscription services like spotify, deezer and all but there are really missing a looot of songs. Especially on deezer. im so pissed off i cant find one Lamont Doziers album on deezer, but it doesnt even matter, youtube still here!
this comment implicitly speaks too much, only if you emphasize the correct words. Appreciate you for this comment; simple but so elaborate and eloquent.
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 😭
I love this song for the fact that there’s this underlying sadness and melancholy throughout but also this consistent optimism and hopefulness that things will work themselves out and it’ll all be okay in the end. It’s somehow hopeful but at the same time somber. It’s a long year pretending I belong here.
About 10 years ago I was in my early teens and I was in a dark place, dropped out of school, thought the world hated me, I hated the world. I wasn’t self destructive or anything I was just depressed being in a broken house, these tracks helped me so much and brought me to tears and they also strengthened me to who I am today, In a whole different world.
“Been tryna do well on this earth, but it’s been Hell on this earth since I fell on this earth” always hit the hardest. You just fucking hear it in him.
“I won’t become as dumb as some or succumb to scum. It’s cumbersome” I don’t know why I love that line so much, it just shows even the earliest version Em was a lyrical genius
Yeah definitely was,I really just friggin wish he would go back to this style of rapping again But it wouldn't be the same because I feel like being a rapper in the 90's was way better than it is now That's why lines like The one you mentioned Are dam good because there's an atmosphere to his voice while he says it and the beat just makes it so perfect to go with it Life was so much better back then
“But in the midst of this insanity I found my Christianity through God and there’s a wish he granted me. He taught me how to cope with the stress and hope for the best instead of moping depressed”
The lyrics on this song are just as good with his most recent lyrics. He's definitely gotten better with age, but damn, the lyrics here are fucking amazing! 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.
"it may be early to be planning this stuff, but I'm still struggling hard to be the man and it's tough" Over 20 years later, he's still one of the biggest names in music. Really warms my soul that he was able to make that happen for himself, literally started from the bottom and now he's HERE. And he's been here a while. Fuck.
He's been done for years now, most of the kids under 20 even know his name.. My 14 year old niece has no idea who he is. But we can still love him. Keep up with the times tho, he isnt much anymore. I will always be a fan tho
@@ilovevivi7201 I'm 14 years old, turning 15 this February, and I've been listening to Em my whole life. A lot of my friends do as well. His run isn't over, his music will live on forever and be appreciated by generations to come. I like all of his music, from Soul Intent in 1994 to Music To Be Murdered By in 2020.
Not the biggest fan of Em, but I’m from Detroit so I have to show love. This is some dope old school Detroit shit to me, nigga went dumb on this shit. Rhyme schemes go crazy
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 😭
ManyProphets OneMessage “What does it profit a man to gain the whole world but lose his Soul in the process?” Might not agree with Bible but it does have precise quotables.
you can tell hes so unhappy when he's doing anything other than spending time with his kids or music. I look up to him in a major way. kinda scares me that you can have all that money, respect and accomplishments and still be that depressed.
He was either 22 or 23 when he made this song and started the "Infinite" album. That's crazy. He's 48 now. Then, after producing it and things like that, he released the album less than a month after his 24th birthday.
100%. This album was Eminem in his purest, rawest form. No exaggerations, no put-on, no character, just genuinely him. Unfortunately people didn’t see the value in that and from that point forward authenticity was lost and never truly recovered. Sad but that’s life I guess. It’s a long year pretending you belong here.
still love this track, infinite album is one of the most underrated albums ever but one of the best, first time i heard it was when i 15 in 2000 and i still play it today, thanks for the upload.

Em is so raw and authentic sometimes it’s therapeutic. Like these types of songs go so underrated and bs like real slim shady become big songs, smh I feel bad that he put his soul out there like that and it didn’t even sell 1000 copies 😔
“I’m using smarter tactics to over come this slum I won’t become as dumb as some & succumb to scum It’s cumbersome, I’m tryna do well on this earth But it’s been hell on this earth since I FELL on this earth” his greatest line ever IMO

Forget everything else if ya really like really listen to this album ya should know loud and clear that this man is goat. Plus his other work is pretty match unmatchable. Word plays, double meaning and knowing when to switch flow is very rare and he is the only rapper that can rap about anything or anyone cause when it comes to versatility no one can match him but much respect to the real ones tho. #Goat
Every time I have a rough day, i remember this song, it just hits that spot. I have so many feelings while listening to it, it's insane! I love love love it. Crazy that it's so forgotten, and so many people don't know it exists, it's not even on Spotify. MASTERPIECE year after year I still come back to this song
“One day I plan to be a family man, happily married” bruh that hits hard considering with what happened with him and Kim. I’m glad he made it out of the hood and most (not all) life struggles, along with other great hip hop artists. I hope to achieve the same one day.
This is my favorite song on this album and i regard Infinite and Slim shady EP like they are official eminem albums like I have those albums in my listen again just as much as say slim shady LP , MMLP or the eminem show
Something about the production feels comfortable, even though a lot of us go through struggles, it makes you feel it will alright in the end. And it’s safe to say Eminem never changed, lyrics ahead of time if I were to be honest.
Love this song, Infinite, and Searchin’. I haven’t heard the whole album yet on RU-vid, but hopefully he will release it on Spotify and other streaming services soon.
I was born in 98 but since middle school ive been listening to eminem hes my favorite rapper i dont listen to mumble rap i dont like new artist my generation music sucks
Fuckin love this album. I bought a bootleg copy of this back in 2000. Love that 90s hip hop sound. I don't know why this didn't ever get more love. This is the shit. I tripped out when me and my 17 year old co worker put this on while we walked to go get something to eat during lunch break. Badass how it's winning over young audiences.
