With multiple albums under his belt, Eminem has dozens of songs competing to be his favourite. But the one that tops the list for him is actually quite a surprising choice.
The 50-year-old rapper has been making music for years since releasing his debut solo album, Infinite, in 1996.
He's made a name for himself as one of the most popular rappers out there and has had nearly 100 songs in the Billboard Hot 100 over the years, so it's safe to say he's got a lot of bangers.

Popular tracks from the artist include 'Lose Yourself', 'Not Afraid', 'Crack A Bottle' and 'Killshot', all of which made it into Billboard's top five, but not everyone can agree on their favourite. Some like the hits, others like the lesser known album tracks, and so naturally fans have been curious to know which of his multiple songs Eminem loves the most.
One fan had the chance to pitch this question to Em himself in 2020, when the rapper took part in a streaming party hosted by Spotify to mark the 20th anniversary of The Marshall Mathers LP.
Fans were able to ask Eminem all kinds of questions, from his favourite boxers to the show he was watching at the time, but many focused their attention on his music.
When asked what his favourite song was, the rapper didn't hesitate.
Rather than one of the chart-toppers, he picked a track which featured on his first greatest hits album released in 2005, Curtain Call: The Hits.
The album includes songs like 'Mockingbird' and 'Stan', but Eminem selected 'FACK' as his favourite track.
'FACK's lyrics aren't the most sophisticated, with one verse reading as follows: "Owwww, owwww, owwww (Oh, God damn)
I’m gonna f***ing c** (Oh, s***) Fack, fack, fack (F***, I am) I am, I’m going to c** (I’m c****ng)."
There's also a part of the track which includes a gerbil - if you know you know - but still when one fan described 'FACK' as a 'lyrical masterpiece', Eminem responded: "I KNOW!"
Though that's his favourite song overall, the rapper admitted his favourite verse comes from another song altogether - 'I'm Back'.
It's the second verse Eminem says he enjoys most, so why not have a little listening party and see if it reaches your top spot, too.
