 | | Since the release of the Slim Shady LP Eminem has received as much press as any artist could hope for, and Eminem concert tickets are just about as hot as album sales. |
 | | In several songs, it is clear that the Slim Shady persona does not accurately represent Eminem's real life and many lyrics are meant as a joke, in contrast to his more serious sophomore effort The Marshall Mathers LP. |
 | | The bulk of the album was written in Amsterdam, with producer Dr. Dre holding a telephone to his speakers so Eminem could hear the beats.[citation needed] "The Real Slim Shady," the first single and a huge hit, was written back in the United States, as the deadline neared and no radio-friendly singles were yet written. |
