Without Me

Released in 2002, "Without Me" was Eminem's first single since his Marshall Mathers LP from two years earlier. He explains in the song that everything was boring and empty with him away, but he's now here to give us something to talk about. He takes shots at The FCC, Limp Bizkit, Moby and Chris Kirkpatrick.

The video shows Eminem and Dr. Dre as Batman and Robin-type heroes sent to save the world. This earned director Joseph Kahn his first Grammy Award for Best Music Video. He went on to direct clips for Eminem's "We Made You," "Love the Way You Lie" and "Space Bound."

Eminem's friend and fellow rapper Obie Trice intros the song with, "Obie Trice, real name no gimmicks." Eminem produced Trice's first album in 2003 and gave him a role in the movie 8 Mile. In early 2006, Trice was shot in the head while driving his SUV, but was treated and released.
