	Actors - The Slim Shady LP

Upon joining Aftermath Entertainment, Eminem released The Slim Shady LP, which would eventually be certified 4x platinum. "My Name Is" was the first single off the album.

Upon its release, there were several complaints about The Slim Shady LP's lyrical content. The song "Guilty Conscience" (the album's second single) ends with Eminem and Dr. Dre encouraging a man to murder his wife and her lover. "Guilty Conscience" was also the birth of Dr. Dre and Eminem's powerful and beloved duo. In "'97 Bonnie & Clyde," Eminem raps about disposing of his wife's body while his baby daughter rides along in his car.

Most songs feature substantial amounts of cussing, numerous references to sex and drugs, and over-the-top, cartoonish descriptions of violence. Fans of the album have generally defended it by saying that the lyrics are not meant to be taken seriously. Eminem himself has referenced "Slim Shady" as an exaggerated persona.

Dr. Dre produced both singles on the album ("My Name Is" and "Guilty Conscience") and also produced "Role Model" with Mel-Man. The rest of the album was produced by the Bass Brothers for the Detroit-based FBT Productions as well as Eminem himself.
