"My Name Is" is a song by American rapper Eminem from his major-label second studio album The Slim Shady LP (1999). It is also the opening song of that album. The song samples Labi Siffre's 1975 track "I Got The...". The song was ranked at #26 on "VH1's 100 Greatest Songs of the '90s".[2] "My Name Is" was also ranked #6 on Q Magazine's "1001 Best Songs Ever". [3] The song was placed at number 39 by Rolling Stone on their list of "100 Greatest Hip-Hop songs of all time" in April 2016.[4] The recording garnered Eminem his first Grammy Award for Best Rap Solo Performance at the 42nd Grammy Awards in 2000.

Background

Producer Dr. Dre wanted to use a sample of Labi Siffre's "I Got The ..." for the rhythm track. Siffre, who is openly gay, said in a 2012 interview that he refused to clear the sample until sexist and homophobic lyrics were removed from the song: "Dissing the victims of bigotry – women as bitches, homosexuals as faggots – is lazy writing. Diss the bigots [sic] not their victims."[5] The bass and guitar riff used in the sample was performed by Siffre's session musicians Chas Hodges and Dave Peacock, who later became the duo Chas & Dave.[6]

During the time the song was released, Eminem and Insane Clown Posse were having a "rap feud". After the release of this song, Insane Clown Posse parodied this song with a song called "Slim Anus". "My Name Is" was later re-released in 2005 on Eminem's compilation album The Hits. The song is mixed with Jay Z's song "Izzo (H.O.V.A.)" and Beck's song "Loser" on the video game DJ Hero. Eminem also made a remix of it, using the most explicit version, over the top of AC/DC's "Back In Black".

Lyric differences

There are multiple instances in which lyrics where changed from the uncensored version of the song in the censored version. Below is a table with each instance where the lyric changed meaning from one version to another.

Censored Uncensored
“Hi kids! Do you like Primus?” “Hi kids! Do you like violence?”
“...since age twelve I felt like a caged elf, Who stayed to himself, in one space, chasin' his tail.” “...since age twelve I felt like someone else because I hung my original self from the top bunk with a belt.”
“Got so ticked off and ripped Pamela Lee's lips off, kissed them and said "I didn't know silicone was supposed to be this soft!" “Got so pissed off and ripped Pamela Lee’s tits off and smacked her so hard I knocked her clothes backwards like Kris Kross.”
“Walked in the club, had my jacket zipped up, served the bartender, and walked out with the tip cup” “Walked in the strip club, had my jacket zipped up, flashed the bartender, then stuck my dick in the tip cup.”
“I just drank a fifth of Kool-Aid, dare me to drive?” “I just drank a fifth of vodka, dare me to drive?”
“I lay awake and strap myself in the bed, with a bulletproof vest on and tap myself in the head till I'm steamin' mad.” “I lay awake and strap myself in the bed, with a bulletproof vest on and shoot myself in the head 'cause I'm steaming mad.”
“And by the way when you see my dad? Ask him if he bought the porno mag to see my ad.” “And by the way, when you see my dad, tell him that I slit his throat in this dream I had.”

Music video

The video premiered on MTV Total Request Live on January 21, 1999. It was directed by Phillip Atwell, who would later direct music videos for several other Eminem songs, including "Stan", "Lose Yourself", "The Real Slim Shady", and "Just Lose It". The video starts out with a stereotypical redneck family watching television, who then come across a show starring "Marshall Mathers" (Eminem's real name). As the video goes on, Eminem parodies several TV shows and movies. He also imitates then-President Bill Clinton, Johnny Carson, a porn star, and others. Basketball player Gheorghe Mureșan has a cameo appearance as a ventriloquist with Eminem being used as the dummy in the scene. Dr. Dre, the song's producer, also has a cameo as a doctor.

The video was ranked #71 in NME's 100 Greatest Music Videos.[7]

Critical reception

Allmusic's Stephen Thomas Erlewine highlighted the song.[8] Rolling Stone Magazine wrote that "Eminem is on some serious Dangerfield shit in loser anthems like 'My Name Is'".[9] David Browne wrote that this single and its accompanying video were both "attention-grabbing".[10]

Controversy

Eminem's mother Debbie Mathers filed a $10,000,000 slander lawsuit against him for insinuating that she does drugs in the lyrics "99% of my life I was lied to, I just found out my mom does more dope than I do".[13]

Eminem also berates his mother in the third verse of the song, with the lyrics "When I was little I used to get so hungry I would throw fits/How you gonna breastfeed me, Mom?! You ain't got no tits!" Debbie stated in her 2008 book My Son Marshall, My Son Eminem, "This line was horrible and upsetting, because I'd contracted toxemia-blood poisoning when I gave birth to him and hadn't been able to breast-feed." The lawsuit was settled in 2001 for $25,000, of which Debbie received only $1,600, after Judge Mark Switalski ruled that $23,354.25 of the $25,000 settlement should go to Fred Gibson, Debbie's former attorney.[14] Eminem would later reference this in his 2002 song "Without Me" with the lyrics, "I just settled all my lawsuits--fuck you, Debbie!"[15]
