    i think its a fairly interesting snapshot of where his mind was at beta stage, still developing his talents and voice. em is a fun artist to track - or was at least - bc you could be a stan completist and listen to the evolution of his sound/interests etc in real time. so this stuff is a fun time capsule. ty for asking!

    its also kinda cool to hear him rapping without the burden of Being Eminem, doing the hokey slim shady bs all the time

    Yeah, I like the grimeyness of the sound of the tapes they recorded on. It gives them a real underground feel which i like

    Couple standout tracks like don’t chew with your mouth full and cool to hear his influences at the time . Never really cared for the other rappers and his sound got the best around 94

    It was basically amateur hour, trash. The kind of music he’s probably ashamed exists. You listen to the best songs of that era and compare it to Soul Intent and it’s basically like comparing the best artists of today to the run of the mill trash rappers on IG.
