Background
After the terrible reviews of Infinite, Eminem had to decide whether or not to keep going. He did, and by 1999 he had released The Slim Shady Lp. In 1997, Eminem had come up with Slim Shady. He had found a way to vent his feelings, and he released The Slim Shady Ep. A producer soon found it, and passed it on to Dr. Dre. After Dr. Dre had heard it, he simply told someone, "Find him. Now."

And so they began work on the major label debut album.

Then came The Slim Shady Lp.

When Eminem did a song with Royce Da 5'9, a team was formed. They also started work together, as Bad Meets Evil.
