The Slim Shady LP is the second studio album by American rapper Eminem. It was released through Aftermath Entertainment, WEB Entertainment, and Interscope Records on February 23, 1999. Recorded in Ferndale, Michigan, following Eminem's recruitment by Dr. Dre and Jimmy Iovine, the album features production from Eminem himself, alongside Dr. Dre and the Bass Brothers. Featuring hip-hop and horrorcore musical styles, the majority of The Slim Shady LP's lyrical content was written from the perspective of Eminem's alter ego, named Slim Shady. Slim Shady was introduced on his Slim Shady EP and concluded on his studio album The Death of Slim Shady. The album contains cartoonish depictions of violence and heavy use of profanity, which Eminem described as horror film–esque, solely for entertainment value. Although many of the lyrics on the album are considered to be satirical, Eminem also discusses his frustrations of living in poverty. "My Name Is" was released as the album's second single and became Eminem's first entry on the US Billboard Hot 100.
