When Did You Discover Eminem?

Inspired by someone on Twitter I saw who had only started listening to Em in 2012, I was curious as to when people started listening to his music?

For me, it was 1999 literally days before My Name Is video dropped (which was 1/21/99) — I was 12 and had been into ICP & Esham for a couple years, this was early AOL Messenger days, and someone told me about Em and him being the next big horrorcore rapper (lol) then just a couple days later I saw the video premiere on MTV and thats it.

Sidebar it was really fun being into both ICP & Eminem in the Slim Anus days lol.
