Eminem's Debut Album 'Infinite' Released For Free Online

Eminem's debut album, which was released independently four years before The Slim Shady LP, has been made availabe to download for free by a website owned by 50 Cent.

The rare record, entitled Infinite, was released in 1996 and only 1000 copies were originally made – many of which sell for over £100.

A link to an mp3 version on the album was posted on the website, This Is 50, by a user with the name Eminem (We're thinking his record label? PR? Management?).

The post says: “In a week now..Eminem will release Relapse! To celebrate Thisis50 offers you Em's very first album "Infinite" .. Not available anymore .. this rare album is a MUST have for any Rap fan”

Eminem has previously talked about how the record sound tracked his early life.

He told Vanity Fair: "On (Infinite) you can hear the pain and the woes of just growing up and being poor and having a baby on the way.”
