#tbt – Tracks You May Have Missed – Eminem – Infinite

by FUXWITHIT

It’s Thursday, time to hit you with another Track You May Have Missed. This week we’re taking it back to 1996 for a cut off Eminem’s debut album Infinite. It’s the title track and opens the album off. Keep in mind this is pre Dr. Dre. The production is understated with a laidback vibe allowing for Em’s lyricism, wordplay and flow to take center stage. In my opinion this is one of the greatest Eminem tracks ever. The verses contain sharp battle rhymes, intelligent punchlines and an amazingly intricate flow. “I let the beat commence so I can beat the sense in your elite defense/ I got some meat to mince, a crew to stomp and then two feet to rinse.” There is an abundance of quotables, so I won’t run through them all but even the chorus is impressive, “I’m Infinite, you heard of hell? Well I was sent from it/ I went to it serving a sentence for murdering instruments/ Now I’m trying to repent from it but when I hear the beat/ I’m tempted to make another attempt at it, I’m Infinite.”

Whether you’re a fan of Eminem or not, this track is a must listen. Are you feeling his old-school style or do you prefer the direction he took later in his career? Let us know in the comments below.
