February 1999 – ‘My Name Is’ - Aftermath/Interscope
Records.
"My Name Is“ is the commercial debut but second single overall from his major label debut album, the slim shady LP, also released that year. This song was the first to propel him (and his debut album) up the mainstream singles charts, and helped establish his rapping styles, which lead to further chart-topping success the following year. Due to the single's widespread exposure, it became the first rap song to grace the top spot on Total request live, which was maintained until it was retired after 30 days in a row of it being number one.
