To everyone who is unaware: eminem at the time of this interview had just released his first album or his first song this interview isn’t definitive, eminem was popular in America but not worldwide yet, and Eminem could walk around the city he grew up in with not that much trouble, it was only until the marshal mathers days that it was becoming dangerous to go in his city

@@rosie5162 Yeah his music is violent; back then it was super violent but he always tried to tell people to learn to separate music from entertainment. In his lyrics he might be a crazy ass psycho who kills his wife and does all kinds of weird shit but IRL he's always been a normal, chill, humble, polite and just an overall nice dude.
Man considering Em’s situation as a kid, and the fact that he had absolutely nothing really negative at all to say about his childhood/ childhood home, dudes earned massive respect
hopefully you are talking about just this interview because obviously a lot of his first songs were all about his negative childhood, home and family life
You can tell he was thinking a lot of negative things like when he was saying how the bird thing was always empty but he's on an interview he doesn't want to be all negative and sappy and doesn't want to talk about that stuff and expose it I do the same thing A lot of people do the people who always act so depressed and think being ghetto is cool or something usually haven't really been through stuff
When he said "cuz I rap now" instead of "cuz I'm rich now" when those little kids asked him why he dont live around there no more was perfect answer!!! Very few people have that quick insight to encourage instead of insult. Well done Em!!!
and interestingly, Eminem wasn't really "rich" at that time, he appeared on MTV, got a record company advance, but got comfortable financially after "MMLP"
the love and respect he's showing for those kids at the beginning, and the awe they show towards him, is just fantastic to see. They all appreciate each other

@@hridaymehta5782 These are the years where he was the most controversial. "God sent me to piss the world off". Remember? We can refer to him today as Eminem or simply Marshall. But back in those days he was "Hi ! My Name Is …. Slim Shady !"
Before Proof died he used to smile and goof around more. Proof broke him. For real, his daddy left him, his mom had issues( had to steal the cigarettes so he could keep $2 dollars for lunch money?like wtf) and wasn't really there for him, his Uncle/Friend Ronny died when they were both 19. He was in and out of a relationship with Kim(getting divorced married and divorced again.) When Proof died all he really had left was his kids. Especially his daughter Hailie. His little brother Nate that he adopted was grown, he adopted Whitney(Kim's daughter) and Lainey. So I think he knew he had to stay present in this world for them. But Em has been through so much trauma in life there was a time when he almost took his own life. Now I think he just refuses to smile more as a joke(people expect a villain) and to look tough too. But for a while, before he healed.... 😔 He's also introverted as fuck, he is hungry for the respect and to be appreciated by millions, but he hates being famous and likes to keep to himself.
Actually he did it's just cut out of here for some reason in old clips of this same interview he said "my name is Slim Shady I used to live in this house" I can see why they wouldn't let him in after that lol
I don't think he just randomly came up to that door and said "Hey, can I go take a look at your backyard" and they just let him in. It must have been discussed, just never shown.
Yes. One of the reasons I like this dude, he dosent act like a lot of the rappers do in interviews. He is just his honest aspie self. And great sense of humor. If he said slim shady as an introduction thats funny 😅
Eminem is supposed to be dead and a permanent clone who needs a new clone body every 6 months a year! Says Donald Marshall who attends the cloning centers! RESEARCH DONALD MARSHALL PROBOARD FORUMS TOO READ AND UNDERSTAND HIS INFO!
Got here after watching "Eminem - Houdini" .... !! If he knew back then how far loved he will get !!! Nice to see you back Slim Shady !!! You became a legend buddy !!! 2024 !!
Dem Ones there Detroit, Warren, even Livonia, the single story light colored brick houses with the front porches that have the white iron columns under a cloudless sky surrounded by leafless tress always makes me think of south East Michigan.
lot's of fun stuff like child abuse and parental neglect and molestation to your flesh and blood not including drugs in your food and alcohol around the kids, lots of fun stuff
Dude the 80’s has great camera quality. Just watch a movie from that time. I admit TV’s weren’t great at all, but watch a old movie on a new tv with no remastering and see. Today’s camera quality is fucking better than the best pair of eyes out there lmao but
Before, cameras didn't have fixed resolutions, cause the videos were stored in film (the tape/roll thing). Being stored in a physical and not digital medium makes them able to be rescanned at higher resolutions than the ones available at the time.
"Cuz i rap now" and that smile on his face. Must've been a huge relief for him at that time. He got signed, made money and was finally able to go wherever he wanted or do whatever he liked. He was finally free , at least in a financial way
When the interviewer asked about his family living in the house he sounded like he was about to cry. Idk if it was cold and he was sniffing but you could tell he thought about some not to happy things.
@@gibby9835 lmao I get it edit: the funniest part is that apparently nobody else got it since you got 0 likes and the other dude has 6. I guess thats a good thing?
@@yairrazo2870 yes I am. I assume you are too so it seems we don't have anything against smartphones. I'm sure you know memories have sentimental value therefore anyone from any generation can call their childhood the good old days. And just because I regard my early memories as precious doesn't mean you can't do the same even if it was different in every way. I'm not saying the olden days were better. And there's advantages to both adapting to modern technology and valuing ancient traditions, you can use context to do both without judgements or having to choose between the 2.
It's not a hand recorder lol. It's the same type of camera reality shows like cops/ news used. This is also a reupload and MTV probably has the original tape.
It wasn’t a hand recorder, Dvcam, betacam sp, we had different formats in 1999 included mini DV. I think this would have been shot on either a Sony DXC d35 with a wide angle broadcast lens or a smaller camcorder with wider lenses
They had good professional cameras back then. It's just that we rarely get a good quality file. We usually get the low quality file made for the tv broadcast.
No hes not just rapping fast saying nonsense that's what he was talking about. He raps fast sure but he is still lyrically talented and you can clearly hear what hes saying even when he raps fast
I think people forget to appreciate how humble this man is, he always keeps a level head despite him being in my humble opinion the best rapper but he always showing love to his city and those who inspired him or those he respects. For an example depsite him making rap god he never went around saying he was the "god of rap" the people said that for him and thats a aswome to hear that a person that humble can have the fan's be his shild and armor, its really cool to see. That is just an one of many cases where he is humble bad respect to EMINEM I wouldn't be who I am today without his guidence through his music and that's just real talk.....
Man oh man. I remember watching this on MTV back in 1999. I was 9 years old. MTV & TRL was everything. Eminem was just about to take over the world. It is now New Years Eve. 2020 was trash. Bright side was Eminem dropped a album & a deluxe version this year. He is a massive icon. Greatest rapper alive. This was the first time I saw him. Soon after I got my hands on The Slim Shady LP & literally canned my life. I was instantly hooked. Thank you Eminem.
He looks like someone I'd wanna share a big long hug with. Nothing sexualised, just the intimacy of emotions within physical contact. May he reign infinitely.
Eminem and Tupac are two of the best writers ever, very different styles but both have amazing ability to tell a story. I would have loved to hear them together
Little known fact Eminem actually owns the rights to Tupac's music Tupac's mother sold the rights to em because she said that em was the most deserving to own the rights
@@atravelingman2925 Its a little known fact because its not true, haha thats a really nice story though, that you made up. That may be the reason why Afeni Shakur asked Eminem to produce 4 songs on Tupacs album Resurrection. But Death Row Records owned the albums that Tupac did under their label and unreleased music, they sold it to Entertainment One in 2006 and then they sold it to MNRK Music Group who still own the rights to the music released under Death Row, but all that is still being fought over . Snoop just bought Death Row but it doesnt include Tupacs music and Dr. Dre's The Chronic album. Tupacs Mom Afeni sued Entertainment One and Death Row and won and they were ordered to pay a lot of royalties to her and she got owner ship of all music released after Tupac died. his estate is really confusing. But Eminem certainly doesnt own it. And most royalties go back to Afeni Shakurs estate that she setup. And also all streaming royalties go back to Tupac and his mothers estate because when this was all being fought over, streaming music didnt exist. So basically the Shakur estate profits the most from the music but some early albums are still owned by whoever originally bought Death Row, but its in constant negotiation and litigation and Snoop says he has a good relationship with the Shakur estate and hopes to bring Pac's music back to death row. Its not really a cut and dry thing like 1 person owns it all. its confusing because there is music produced when he was alive, music released after his death. Royalties involved, streaming rights involved. made even more confusing by Suge being in Jail and Death Row being sold multiple times and possible the selling of Death Row might not have included everything each sale. You could probably negotiate to sell your label but keep some masters. Which is why Snoop owns Death Row but not Tupacs music. So confusing, even more so also because Tupacs mom is also dead now. Tupacs estate also owns his image and likeness for commercial purposes which is different than his music, I guess like movies made about him and merch
@@s1dew1nd3r4 Old, abandoned houses are often burned down purposely in order to collect insurance money in Detroit. The city doesn't rebuild them, so they just bulldoze the shit and leave it as a dirt plot.
Gavin Bryce cuz he said that in the past he rapped fast without meaning which many critique him for today (for example in Godzilla’s last verse ) and he jokingly said he’ll write love songs if his life gets better (so many examples like love the way you lie, normal, river, need me , in too deep etc)
@@MrPotatis let me remind you that he's been sober and got much more mature. He can't be rapping about raping lesbians, calling his mom a slut, killing Kim or walking a dead rottweiler with his head chopped off. However, if you really pay attention to the schemes, you can clearly see his rhyming and overall lyrical ability develop and evolve to a much more complicated and complex form. So appreciate it for what it is.
Aiko Giron Another person that thinks they know what mumble rap is. Oh please, Eminem didn’t even touch this generation of rap, that album left no mark. Also the album was bad, sure he had lyricism, but his flow was choppy and had a bad vocal. Rappers these days don’t mumble, only a few do like Playboi Carti. Plus this era of rap is better, it comes out in different types of rap, which makes it better for fans. I can hear all words these rappers these days except Carti clearly. Just because your lyrical that doesn’t mean your shit is good, like Joyner Lucas, if you don’t have the flow then your career will blow. Eminem hasn’t had a actual good song since the early 2000’s, when he had a better flow.
this is the greatest interviewer of all time, his job is to get info out of em so he asked the smallest questions knowing em will go on a branch of different things. Genius
His demeanor is so different than an average person, there is something that is just on another level about him. I can't even put my finger on it. The way he speaks, like when the kid asked him "Why'd you move?" His answer "Cause I rap now" is so simple and straight forward but still tongue in cheek in some ways. Like you can tell he thinks differently.
i never thought about how both Em & The White Stripes were both running around Detroit pushing their existing records in the late 90s at the same time, both units to soon become international stars and the face of their respective scenes

@D G youre using rap god as an example? when eminem himself had said it was purposefully a braggadocious song? lmao, the song is about his career and you can tell thinhs he says in it touch the topic of expectation vs capability. "That whole ‘Rap God’ record pretty much from top to bottom is TONGUE IN CHEEK"
He was so happy and chill. Can't imagine it was 23 years ago! I wonder if he sometimes drives alone around his old neighborhood. This vibe of the 90/00's America... I'm from Europe and it was always my dream living there.
Cmon dude time changes, its not his fault that music is going to another direction, you can say whatever u want, but none of singers did good. Its time diffrent time that you may not like, but most does. His talented still and making great music.

@@Oxygen97 I'm not gonna argue against that since biggy top 5 artist but in my humble opinion it's Rakim, Eminem,2pac, biggy and naz for a 6th spot I would put Jay Z...
“Yeah life is definitely better now, but I don’t want it to get much matter , so I won’t have anything to rap about if it does.” These words really hitting hard still now. That’s what the real rapper mentality.
Eminem really is the GOAT. Grew up in Detroit, made it to be one of the biggest musical artists of all time... and in 2020 he now lives in a massive mansion STILL IN DETROIT. That is the definition of legend.
@@BlackHippy313 he moved back and forth around the area during his formative years, got most of his experience rapping in Detroit, and blew up in Detroit. He is most definitely from Detroit, and lives in metro Detroit to this day. He’s spent most of his life in Michigan, as he’s now 50.
Back then no one had nothing going on and we were always complaining. Now we have everything going on and reminiscing about the days when we had nothing going on. Blessed is the person that has seen both sides and was able to choose what's best for them.
"I don't want life to get much better, I won't have anything to rap about if it does" and in more recent interviews he talks about how hard it is to say something he hasn't already
When he's telling the story at 3:03 Anyone who had a rough childhood and is living a better life now knows exactly what he means when he said, " I kind've miss it "
Right.. only cause of the innocence you have as a child to not know how cold and dark the world is. You reminisce on the innocent care free aspects of life even when they didn’t seem care free. It certainly better than being alone in a house with nobody .
Still creating new pockets and flows and keeping this refreshing. I remember he once said he wants people to always want new eminem. He doesnt want people to get tired of him, and 20 years later people still anticipate new eminem music because we already expect something different.
4:18 It's clear by this time, during the ride over to the house, that the reason he is successful is because he never gave up on himself. With just flyers, he self-promoted himself. He was a self-marketer. It's not surprising he made it to be the rap superstar he is now. He may have a lot of flaws, but he stuck to his goals, and when no one believed in him, he believed in himself. Whether he painted shirts, or was in a talent contest, he handed out flyers. I don't know the last time I ever saw a flyer promoting a band. Now it's people buying RUclips ads. There are no people on the ground interfacing, there are no flyers. He clawed his way up the ranks, he did.
Caezar I lived in warren, grew up in Troy/Rochester. I started high school in 2000. Needless to say we all were a slave to his music. Shaped my life. Bone thugs and Eminem.
I left home almost two years ago. When Eminem was asked about Detroit and the cold. It hit me. I am from the cold and I was never thrilled there but damn I miss home, youre just used to it like he said

Actually he did it's just cut out of here for some reason in old clips of this same interview he said "my name is Slim Shady I used to live in this house" I can see why they wouldn't let him in after that lol
Made_In_Heaven88 “I’m brain dead like Jim Brady, I have a few things to get , get out”
I don't think he just randomly came up to that door and said "Hey, can I go take a look at your backyard" and they just let him in. It must have been discussed, just never shown.
Yes. One of the reasons I like this dude, he dosent act like a lot of the rappers do in interviews. He is just his honest aspie self. And great sense of humor. If he said slim shady as an introduction thats funny 😅
Eminem the only rapper in the world who actually uses his blinkers
he knows he to drive properly haha

It’s hard to believe this was 1999. Look at the camera quality.
Dude the 80’s has great camera quality. Just watch a movie from that time. I admit TV’s weren’t great at all, but watch a old movie on a new tv with no remastering and see.
Today’s camera quality is fucking better than the best pair of eyes out there lmao but
Eminem didn't really age that much either
1999 isn't like 70 years ago lol
Before, cameras didn't have fixed resolutions, cause the videos were stored in film (the tape/roll thing). Being stored in a physical and not digital medium makes them able to be rescanned at higher resolutions than the ones available at the time.
MTV budget
"Cuz i rap now"
and that smile on his face.
Must've been a huge relief for him at that time.
He got signed, made money and was finally able to go wherever he wanted
or do whatever he liked.
He was finally free , at least in a financial way
The way he acts so nice to everyone yet sound so aggressive in his voice
I love how he couldn't even get into his old house! These types of interviews had a lot of unknowns, and weren't too tightly scripted
Ikr nowadays every form of media has some sort of fakeness in it.
Why wouldn’t they have called ahead lol

@@yairrazo2870 yes I am. I assume you are too so it seems we don't have anything against smartphones. I'm sure you know memories have sentimental value therefore anyone from any generation can call their childhood the good old days. And just because I regard my early memories as precious doesn't mean you can't do the same even if it was different in every way. I'm not saying the olden days were better. And there's advantages to both adapting to modern technology and valuing ancient traditions, you can use context to do both without judgements or having to choose between the 2.

That’s some crispy camera quality for a 1999 hand recorder...
Digital8 was pretty good and available even for amateurs back then (have no idea what MTV used for such hots)
It's not a hand recorder lol. It's the same type of camera reality shows like cops/ news used. This is also a reupload and MTV probably has the original tape.
It wasn’t a hand recorder, Dvcam, betacam sp, we had different formats in 1999 included mini DV. I think this would have been shot on either a Sony DXC d35 with a wide angle broadcast lens or a smaller camcorder with wider lenses
They had good professional cameras back then. It's just that we rarely get a good quality file. We usually get the low quality file made for the tv broadcast.

Eminem isnt even rapping fast now. He speeds up his verses in the songs.

I think people forget to appreciate how humble this man is, he always keeps a level head despite him being in my humble opinion the best rapper but he always showing love to his city and those who inspired him or those he respects. For an example depsite him making rap god he never went around saying he was the "god of rap" the people said that for him and thats a aswome to hear that a person that humble can have the fan's be his shild and armor, its really cool to see. That is just an one of many cases where he is humble bad respect to EMINEM I wouldn't be who I am today without his guidence through his music and that's just real talk.....

Besides him on meth yeah he was good
thank you for being humble Em.. you are so gifted and loved by so many...and a true star.....
Man oh man. I remember watching this on MTV back in 1999. I was 9 years old. MTV & TRL was everything. Eminem was just about to take over the world. It is now New Years Eve. 2020 was trash. Bright side was Eminem dropped a album & a deluxe version this year. He is a massive icon. Greatest rapper alive. This was the first time I saw him. Soon after I got my hands on The Slim Shady LP & literally canned my life. I was instantly hooked. Thank you Eminem.
I second , third, and forth this ☝️
You the realest fan dawg, since '99 till to this date💪
I was born in 2000 wish I had seen this on Mtv you lucky

I was also 9 and seen this in tv . I was a hip hop head at a young age. Eminem was the one I gravitated too
Em: "I used to rap fast"
Us in 2020: "Now you rap even faster... "

Eminem and Tupac are two of the best writers ever, very different styles but both have amazing ability to tell a story. I would have loved to hear them together
I think Eminem did a remix of one of pacs songs on one of his albums or eps that released after he died
@@alphonser272 Loyal to the Game and did Runnin/Ghost/One Day at a Time on the Resurrection album
Little known fact Eminem actually owns the rights to Tupac's music Tupac's mother sold the rights to em because she said that em was the most deserving to own the rights
@@atravelingman2925 Its a little known fact because its not true, haha thats a really nice story though, that you made up. That may be the reason why Afeni Shakur asked Eminem to produce 4 songs on Tupacs album Resurrection. But Death Row Records owned the albums that Tupac did under their label and unreleased music, they sold it to Entertainment One in 2006 and then they sold it to MNRK Music Group who still own the rights to the music released under Death Row, but all that is still being fought over . Snoop just bought Death Row but it doesnt include Tupacs music and Dr. Dre's The Chronic album. Tupacs Mom Afeni sued Entertainment One and Death Row and won and they were ordered to pay a lot of royalties to her and she got owner ship of all music released after Tupac died. his estate is really confusing. But Eminem certainly doesnt own it. And most royalties go back to Afeni Shakurs estate that she setup. And also all streaming royalties go back to Tupac and his mothers estate because when this was all being fought over, streaming music didnt exist. So basically the Shakur estate profits the most from the music but some early albums are still owned by whoever originally bought Death Row, but its in constant negotiation and litigation and Snoop says he has a good relationship with the Shakur estate and hopes to bring Pac's music back to death row.
Its not really a cut and dry thing like 1 person owns it all. its confusing because there is music produced when he was alive, music released after his death. Royalties involved, streaming rights involved. made even more confusing by Suge being in Jail and Death Row being sold multiple times and possible the selling of Death Row might not have included everything each sale. You could probably negotiate to sell your label but keep some masters. Which is why Snoop owns Death Row but not Tupacs music. So confusing, even more so also because Tupacs mom is also dead now.
Tupacs estate also owns his image and likeness for commercial purposes which is different than his music, I guess like movies made about him and merch
And they are the realest

Gavin Bryce cuz he said that in the past he rapped fast without meaning which many critique him for today (for example in Godzilla’s last verse ) and he jokingly said he’ll write love songs if his life gets better (so many examples like love the way you lie, normal, river, need me , in too deep etc)
@@MrPotatis let me remind you that he's been sober and got much more mature. He can't be rapping about raping lesbians, calling his mom a slut, killing Kim or walking a dead rottweiler with his head chopped off. However, if you really pay attention to the schemes, you can clearly see his rhyming and overall lyrical ability develop and evolve to a much more complicated and complex form. So appreciate it for what it is.

@@nickcojocar3298 yea, like, kim or love you more, how lovely they where...
Aiko Giron Another person that thinks they know what mumble rap is. Oh please, Eminem didn’t even touch this generation of rap, that album left no mark. Also the album was bad, sure he had lyricism, but his flow was choppy and had a bad vocal. Rappers these days don’t mumble, only a few do like Playboi Carti. Plus this era of rap is better, it comes out in different types of rap, which makes it better for fans. I can hear all words these rappers these days except Carti clearly. Just because your lyrical that doesn’t mean your shit is good, like Joyner Lucas, if you don’t have the flow then your career will blow. Eminem hasn’t had a actual good song since the early 2000’s, when he had a better flow.
this is the greatest interviewer of all time, his job is to get info out of em so he asked the smallest questions knowing em will go on a branch of different things. Genius

His demeanor is so different than an average person, there is something that is just on another level about him. I can't even put my finger on it.

Like you can tell he thinks differently.
You are probably just overthinking it.

4:18 It's clear by this time, during the ride over to the house, that the reason he is successful is because he never gave up on himself. With just flyers, he self-promoted himself. He was a self-marketer. It's not surprising he made it to be the rap superstar he is now. He may have a lot of flaws, but he stuck to his goals, and when no one believed in him, he believed in himself. Whether he painted shirts, or was in a talent contest, he handed out flyers. I don't know the last time I ever saw a flyer promoting a band. Now it's people buying RUclips ads. There are no people on the ground interfacing, there are no flyers. He clawed his way up the ranks, he did.
