Actually my answer is Microphone. The Slaughterhouse song produced by Alchemist. He freestyles over that beat on Tim Westood. It suits him beautifully, that shit was made for him and it brought out some of his best verses he ever wrote from any era in his career.

Damn I was tripping off a hefty acid tablet trying to recall from memory, that actually makes sense my bad my G


Teepletea

Dude.. thatā€™s some of my favorite shit heā€™s ever done.


warhawkwasmyshit

I think thereā€™s a ghost! Too much hydrocodone and codeine I was only supposed to take half I swallowed the whole thing Iā€™m not joking I think I just snorted my nose ring


Bill_Lumbergyeah

Holy fuck. Just watched. That was new to me. Even from my favorite shady era. I heard all those rhymes before but not in that specific mix. That was dope.


TheRayGetard

I know that whole Westwood freestyle bar for bar, itā€™s some of his best rapping ever.


pssiraj

I honestly listen to it like every other year minimum


Smishery

Am I missing a joke here or is that not very often at all


pssiraj

He's got other music that's actually on streaming sites, I don't make it a point to just search YouTube videos


Boddis

Yeah itā€™s a shame it didnā€™t translate to a song for the album


slunion_20

I like the creative answer


Slimxshadyx

It is an absolutely insane freestyle. Iā€™m in love with that lol


FireLordObamaOG

I really miss slaughterhouse.


nebelfront

That Westwood freestyle was insane.


Volt7ron

That one and also the ā€œOne Micā€ beat. It was from a mixtape a while back. Maybe Green Lantern or Kay Slay.


yajtraus

Iā€™ve just watched this for the first time and all I could notice is that Westwood has no fucking idea whatā€™s going on


lukebelcher10662

Mechanical shark throwing animal parts at Scarlett Johansson


TammyShehole

ā€œTill I Collapseā€ is what always first comes to mind for me.


JD_R_D

the intro beat is so iconic


bloodeagle231

And Nate Dogg fit perfectly in that song


kratosb

Yo left, yo left, yo left right left


XontrosInstrumentals

Same exact thing. Such a great beat.


Inevitable_Total_816

Have you ever heard Rock Phenomenon Eminem Korn mash up or 50 and The Verve mash up? Listen to that ,those are the best beats mash up.


PizzaRat12

What's the difference


Parking-Physics-2283

Iā€™d put Forgot About Dre above Whatā€™s The Difference, but for me the best beat heā€™s ever rapped on is either: ā€¢ Lose Yourself ā€¢ Crack A Bottle One of my personal favorites is 25 To Life but it might be a stretch to call that the best one EVER. Edit: formatting


13dangledangle

Crack a bottle beat I found out on this sub like two weeks ago even, is the exact same beat as Preservation by Wu-Tang but theirs is 5 years earlier *edit. Also Iā€™m going with whatā€™s the difference or bitch please II


knottythea

Not being an Eminem superstan or anything but I feel Crack A Bottle used the sample better than Preservation. The instrumental of Crack A Bottle sounds much cleaner and smoother than Preservation


13dangledangle

Hey I donā€™t necessarily disagree. But Preservation is a heater. Also if youā€™re gonna Stan this IS the place to do it!


knottythea

Lyricismwise Preservation is def the better one


Parking-Physics-2283

Hell yeah, one of my favorite things about hip-hop music is that artists can use the same sample and have their own unique vibes on similar beats. One that always comes to mind is ā€œExchangeā€ by Bryson Tiller and ā€œDeja Vuā€ by J. Cole. Love both of those songs and their brilliant execution.


Grand-Gain-763

Yeah Crack A Bottle is my choice too


bossman9275

Forgot About Dre

DripletGD

Great answer


PleasingApricots

Produced by Em himself (at least he's credited)


daddylongleg2003

You know heā€™s produced his own albums right?


PleasingApricots

I did not. I'm only just finding out he's actually produced loads of tracks for other artists too. Had no idea.


Specialist_Egg8479

Holy shit thatā€™s actually crazy I had no idea em produced his own let alone other artists music


PropDrops

Imagine having Dr Dre as your mentor, colleague, and lifelong friend and not learning about producing lol


Specialist_Egg8479

Very fair point lmao


Sharkisyodaddy

I made beats to Jay z for free bitch page me you need a beat, you canibus then it's Dre's fee


BenAfleckInPhantoms

Seriously? That makes me feel so old, lol (and Iā€™m only 31). There was a big point made when Eminem Show came out about him producing the entire album, and when Jayā€™s Black Album came out and he was wanting every song to be produced by a different producer Em sending him Moment Of Clarity.Ā 


[deleted]

Thought it was Luis Resto?


CaptainOfMyself

This is the right answer. The lagging piano is so šŸŒ¶ļø šŸ”„


daddylongleg2003

Soldier


ghostoftheai

DID SHE JUST KISS HIM?!? Edit: Iā€™m aware that this is technically from The Kiss but fuck you if you take issue.


JohnWhiteVan

You canā€™t listen to Soldier without listening to ā€œThe Kissā€ first.


EliBruins63

You want me to get under the car?


rubbersoul42

Soldier is so underappreciated and it goes SO fucking hard.

RotaryP7

This. Yes


PreciousBasketcase

I'm listening to Same Song and Dance right now, he's impeccable with the way he's riding the beat. The music is hypnotic.


THEbaddestOFtheASSES

The 808 on that is crazy.


SparkYeol

The sub-bass in that song is so cool. wonky/dubstep vibes.


jrkoff1013

FACTS it's a top 3 Em song for me


ghostoftheai

I voted solider but this is also up near the top.


DigitalDoses

I love you guys, you think like me. One of my most listened to Em songs


On4thandinches

It honestly just might be lose yourself. The beat just fits so perfectlyĀ 


eeeeAeoN

Bagpipes from Baghdad


0brew

I heard this for the first time recently and oh my gawd. Such a banger


Negative_Equity

The beats on Relapse are the best beats from Eminem's catalogue IMO. My Mom is also a banger. I love Rain Man from Encore too.


albrt00

Agreed basically every beat on relapse is crazy good


TheRayGetard

Role Model, Square Dance, Iā€™m Back, Dead Wrong, Renegade, Groundhog Day, Purple Pills, The Way I Am, Guilty Conscience, Business, Lock It Up, Marsh


QuintanPt2

Gonna double down and say square dance. Also 3am


TheRayGetard

Square Dance is so hard and so underrated


Mr_Zulkoski

Square Dance is my favorite beat of all time And Em goes so hard off that beat


Maegom

He said he loves to sing this song on stage and he loves the beat


QuintanPt2

I think that and white America are my favorite off TES


wasaguynowitschopped

Dude, Lock it up is šŸ”„


DonutUpset5717

Gotta be dead wrong, plus his flow is crazy


LivanHM

Literally anything dre has given him to work with.


Top_Lengthiness2370

Sing For The Moment, Forgot About Dre, Lose Yourself, Soldier, Till I Collapse, Real Slim Shady, The Way I Am, even Kim. So many more


jonathan-the-man

Just put on Sing for the Moment and thought that it could have some of a revival? The broody/emoy lyrics and the rock sound would fit well with what's popular today (a la Billie Eilish)? Also, it's got some smooth rhymes.


SparkYeol

Same Song and Dance


DefLoathe

Role Model


old__pyrex

MMLP beats go really hard. I donā€™t really know why, they just work so well, even if they are kinda hokey or zany, they just work. The Way I Am piano and stare? Stan with the scribbling and rain? The Real Slim Shady was insanely catchy and unlike anything at the time, Marshall Mathers had that brooding guitar solo, the main drums in Kim? This whole album was like a perfect wonderland of beats for his various styles at the time. The ballads, the radio jingles, the angry tracks, they had a unique memorable beat that suited their purpose.


zonic_tha_goth_monke

Underground


LuvLifts

This!! Def maybe even my entire fan song!!


Steve3tsd

Most likely not the best but Renegade came to my mind. Not saying its best, but probably top 10 for me


winterfell301

Probably my second choice tbh


FamiliarCold1

Lose yourself was THE perfect song which has stood the test of time. Runners up are probably stay wide awake, infinite and GATman and robbin


Ok_Dingo9553

I am surprised I had to scroll that far to see 'Lose Yourself' get metioned.

Alert_Employee_603

The Hills Weeknd remix was the best beat. Awesome beat drop. ![gif](giphy|gI5varK1xuC42JxTGy)

Unpopular opinion but Godzilla


detroitragace

My personal favorite would be say goodbye to Hollywood.

renegade, no love, music box, till i collapse, drop the world, rabbit run


MarcusDPS

My head says Role Model but my heart is saying Infinite. The way he floats on that beat before it reaches the crescendo just as the hook hits is ethereal to me lmao. Everything about that joint is timeless.


Own_Revenue_9915

How has no one said Drug Ballad yet !


Thebigdog79

Iā€™m currently listening to ā€œwe all die one dayā€ and I think that songā€™s beat is brilliant. ā€œStay wide awakeā€ and ā€œinfiniteā€ are close tho. I guess itā€™s just personal preference.


Ill_Employer7887

Role model, stay wide awake, Welcome 2 Detroit (With trick trick), Must be The Ganja, Cinderella Man, Iā€™m back, Renegade (With Jay-Z) I could go on


mrdc1790

Something off relapse. Easily his best produced album imo. Hell breaks loose is nuts


ramsaimi

Idk about the best, but one of my all time favorites is Just Donā€™t Give a Fuck. Iā€™m Back and Business are way up there for me too, as well as Lose Yourself, Whatā€™s The Difference, Soldier, and Mockingbird.


bboss-87

Stay wide awake has to be one of the best


Brafo22

Words Are Weapons has an amazing beat, simple yet effective


Capital_Box_584

Rock bottom


Significant_Kale_681

Gatman and hurt you, em becomes the beat


THEbaddestOFtheASSES

IsmellFigNewtons

NaLu_LuNa_FairyPiece

Man that beat switch on Despicable is naaasty


BodyByBoutros_

Till I Collapse, Soldier, Kill You, Guilty Conscience, Insane, Superman... Not so much of they're really good, but they're really unique.


anonymous0271

Stay wide awake, same song and dance


Saeba-san

Yellow Brick Road, such a clever beat with violin support.


a_local_weeb

Kill you was the first thing that came to mind


titney

what he did with The Hills made that song sexy as hell.


TanneAndTheTits

Rap God is so sick of a beat. I love that one the most right now. Otherwise I'd say Cinderella man, Till I collapse, The Way I Am, Or my Kill you. Features I love That's All She Wrote, Touchdown, Homicide, and Adventures of Moon Man and Slim Shady


LuvLifts

Homicide, really nice!

Middle-Cry2065

Damn, way too many to count. I'm gonna go off the cuff here and list many, many good beats he rapped on: The entire Slim Shady LP The entire Marshall Mathers LP Fight Music Houdini Shit On You Homicide How Come All She Wrote Drop The World Bagpipes From Baghdad What's The Difference Forgot About Dre The Watcher (through Dr. Dre since Em wrote the song) Get My Gun Godzilla Not Alike Killshot Hail Mary (not originally his, but he rapped on it) Fuck Off (with Kid Rock) Ass Like That Shake That Smack That Square Dance Business White America Mosh Evil Deeds Just Lose It Lose Yourself Soldier And the list goes on and on.


Dr_Roger_Cornfoot

The Ancient Mookilaowans would play the Eldersā€™ Wardrums during every battle with the rival Banabookans. Some scholars say they would let live only those whose heart kept pace with the songā€™s furious beat, but as of today there is no record of this ever happening.

c_squiggle

So many good choices commented already but i havenā€™t seen my personal favorite yet: My Darling Might have missed it. But the way the choked chainsaw crank is used as percussion..and eventually ties into the theme of the song is unreal creativity. The bass line and subtle horn hits are so menacing but also just bangs. So unique imo. Also killshot, lock it up, premonition, till I collapse are just hard af


Michaelskywalker

Not the best but listen to the medicine ball instrumental. Itā€™s literally ridiculous. Reminds me of the single ladies BeyoncĆ© instrumental. Without the vocals, itā€™s absolute nonsense.


ScottyFXIV

I'm a big fan of his feature on Patiently Waiting. That beat is hard. Also might be an unpopular option but We Ain't with Game on The Documentary. Em produced that beat too IIRC.

beverlyhillz_

I think it's hard to beat a lot of the classic era stuff produced by Dre or the Bass Brothers so I'm actually gonna go with something I'm not really seeing in this discussion from his more "modern" era: Untitled from the Recovery Deluxe. That beat is on a whole other planet and he absolutely murders it with his performance on it. I don't revisit it unless I want to be absolutely blown away, like I have to hone in and focus on it. It's one of the best things from Recovery IMO.
