The "Slim Shady" Character Theory

[CrashBand]

I thought he came up with the name Slim Shady when he was writing Just Don't Give a Fuck. Well thats the impression i got from the para from Angry Blonde

He thought of it and then would've written those bars/the whole song

[Sam.]

Eminem will fuck you, Slim Shady would fuck you and your mother.

[Blu]

Eminem will fuck you, Slim Shady would fuck you and your mother.

I forgot where, but I remember reading this before haha.

[Emadyville]

yes

[ajsotb]

I think the guy on Backstabber was Shady (like you said)
He then kills Shady in When I'm Gone (Like Sam said)
And then Shady comes back in My Darling

my darling was a bonus track so I think shady came back either in dr. west or 3 a.m

I just assumed My Darling took place before the other Relapse tracks.

My Darling comes right after Dr. West.

I think I need to listen to Relapse again. My memory sucks...

[Emadyville]

It doesn't technically come after it. It's a bonus track.

But play them beside each other. It was meant to be that way but for some reason they're not.

ironically, as we discuss just that in the other thread

Yeah, I know. I just haven't listened to Dr. West in forever. Imo, My Darling should've been on the main album...

yeah that shit still pisses me off. I mean, i'm not sure if it would have "fit" the album when you take hindsight into consideration, but beautiful, crack a bottle, and even underground didn't really fit the album so even if it didn't it prolly wouldn't have mattered.

I thought in my darling the darker voice talking was the drugs 0.o

Was Satan ruled out of the equation or am I missing something?

For all who are willing to sell their souls, for this rap game, and it g-g-goes...

You sold your soul to me, need I remind you? You 'member that night, you prayed to God you'd give anything to get a record deal, well Dre signed you. This is what you wanted your whole life Marshall right? Whew! Look at this house, look at these cars, they're so nice. Whew!

I thought selling your soul to the devil gave you fame and fortune?

Maybe... Slim Shady asked Satan if he could take Eminem's personally. Idk. Lol.

01. Satan could metaphorically mean the drugs, like Relapse said, did you think of it that way?
02. My Darling was the sequel, if that even makes sense since it's prequel is a skit, to Dr. West, they align perfectly & one leads into another, listen to the songs again if you forget.
03. 3 AM is the return of Slim Shady fully in song form, not just Eminem & Slim Shady. It goes Dr. West, My Darling, then 3 AM.

I listened to Relapse again last night, and I completely agree.

word. I never though of it in chronological order. I guess you're right though, cuz 3am is when the devil or bad spirits come out or some shit like that. Or maybe its when they're their strongest? idk. but that sounds correct.
