album Infinite (1996)

[Liam]

For me, Infinite didn't live up to expectations because it was Eminem’s first album. So many people call it trash but it's a great album to me being his first project. The album was produced by a producer called Mr Porter. That time, Eminem hadn't developed his own distinctive style.

As an Eminem fan, I don't think I even heard of this album.

I'm going to have to go back in time and pay it a visit.

If you are a true hip-hop fan, you will know that this album is basically a carbon copy of AZ. The rhymes are literally an exact copy of that of AZ. I’m happy that he has become really good over time. Eminem is the king of hip-hop now.

I finally got around to listening to the album. After listening to it, I have to say that it doesn't sound like Eminem's iconic sound at all.

I don't know who AZ is, but the beats remind me of 90s hip-hop like Biggie Smalls.

Infinity is Eminem’s debut studio album. It was was released on November 12th, 1996 and surprisingly, in November 2016, they released it remix to actually celebrate its 20th anniversary.for me,.I like the original better because it was dirtier.

For me, infinite is by far the best song in this album. Although I'll admit I've only listened to infinity maybe twice or three times but I loved the sounds. I like this song more than the others because the beat is so soothing and relaxing . Aside that, it also sooth Eminem's flow as well.

I understand that people compare it AZ but I still think his delivery was unique in its own way. Although he does pay a tribute to NAS in the intro. The song is also similar to NAS’s song called One Time 4 Your Mind.
In my opinion, the album is great in its time.

I do get what you mean completely! Infinity is not as good as his later songs like Slim Shady. It is quite likely that you may hear samples from other musicians like Dr. Dre. in some of the tracks.

Nonetheless, Infinity is the song which proves that Eminem has talents. Though Infinity may not be the best of Eminem album, it is good for us to approach it has his first work. It set the stage of further development for him.

I don't know who AZ is,

AZ is an underground legend in hip-hop. His real name is Anthony Cruz. He is a talented rapper who’s most famous for his deep lyrics. My favourite of his album is Doe or Die. It was released in 1995. You might want to check that out too.
