Worst Eminem Songs

Eminem is incredible, but damn, this guy has a lot of bad songs in his catalogue. Here's the worst of the lot.
The Top Ten
1 Fack

Putting aside the song's attempt to take a stab at standards and practices, which fails due to its love of being very one-sided in the argument, the main problem with the song is that NOTHING HAPPENS. It is loaded with so much filler, it is insane how little time is spent on the actual plot. If you're going to make the standards and practices argument, it helps to have something happen.

This is the worst Eminem song in the history of Eminem songs. I'm not surprised if the CIA uses this song as a torture method within the next few years. This song is disgusting, I threw up the first time I heard this song. And don't use the excuse "well he was on drugs", most of the other songs on this list were him on drugs. The only possible excuse that he could ever have for making a piece of crap this bad is career suicide, which is very valid as his next non-compliation album was released in 2009 (The Re-Up wasn't exclusively his album) after a four year hiatus with a Valium and Vicodin addiction (the source of my least favorite album of his, Relapse. Ughhh. I wish I could forget that album every time I see it.) I've heard essays on everything wrong with this song, but I won't be repetitive and quote others, except by saying this is the worst song he's ever released. I loved Em and I still do, but for the love of god, do I wish he never even thought of this song in the first place. This is almost as bad as ICP's "Miracles".

2 Big Weenie

This isn't even that bad of a song (or at least not in the same way that FACK and Just Lose It are, where it's just pure stupidity) but it's so god damn boring. The lyrics, the flow, the beat, the hook. I haven't even listened to the whole song yet, because I can't be bothered after the first verse.

It's really under appreciated. It's childish because it's supposed to be. He's not even giving his opponent the respect to diss them in a serious way. At the same time he's essentially taking the role of his opponents showing that they themselves are childish.

Gotta be honest, the beat is actually pretty awesome and the lyrics are so stupid that they make me laugh a little, but the chorus is just kind of annoying.

3 Ass Like That

Awful. The vocals sound awful, the beat is generic, and the lyrics... don't even get me started on the lyrics. Some memorable lyrics include him dissing a puppet, rapping about asses, a very terrible Romanian accent, a really terrible Arnold Schwarzenegger impression, The middle part of Encore and stuff, and many others. The only thing that this song has going for it is that the lyrics are so ridiculous, it is a very good song to listen to ironically and make fun of. However, if you genuinely like this song unironically, then you need some help.

This song is so cringy, especially the verses where Eminem pulls off some Asian accent that makes me wanna bang my head against a wall. It's still a mystery to me how this song was even given a go to be released.

This song is a diss track to a puppet. A PUPPET. However, I do like the production, like with most songs on Encore. But just stop and think. Em does an annoying Romanian accent and later a bad Arnold Schwarzenegger impression. This is easily his worst song, and I can see why.

I think this song has a lot of clever rhymes and shows off Eminem's unique style of comedy. This should definitely not be on this list, especially after his preformance with Lindsay Lohan. So funny.

4 Just Lose It

"Just Lose It" was right to be one of Eminem's best songs ever because this was a funny song. The funniest part of this song was in the second verse of the song that Eminem says, "what's you're name girl, what's you're sign? " to his mentor Dr. Dre, who was mistaken at that point as another sexy girl but was not.

This is 'Encore' and 'Relapse' in a nutshell. Eminem is trying way too hard to be funny and it comes off as pathetic. The immature humour doesn't work because it isn't as clever as something off of SSLP (see "Just don't give a f---").

This song is bad musically and lyrically and people need to stop being fanboys and realize that - among loads of fantastic songs - he has released some pure rubbish.

Oh god, I HATE the chorus to this song. And like Big Weenie, it has no humor in it whatsoever, even though it's trying to make people laugh.

5 Kim

Kim far less of a song than anything in the guy's repertoire. Heck it's not even a song at all. It's just him screaming, abusing and ultimately murdering his cheating wife (not the first "song" of his to do it either. ) Being an individual who has seen his mother go through domestic violence doesn't help matters. Not only that, but the one Christmas I had to spend without family, and this is the "song" I hear that Christmas morning. This is possibly the worst excuse for music I've ever heard.

It's basically just a skit in my opinion. I don't necessarily think it's bad, but there's just nothing to it. He's just venting his anger the way we would expect anyone to. 97 Bonnie and Clyde was much better because it has personality, it has ACTUAL RAPPING, it has some cleverness, because of the calm and happy theme but the disturbing subject matter. This is a prequel skit

This is one of the worst songs I have ever heard of period. Even just listening to the sample is freaking horrifying. There is nothing funny or clever about Eminem threatening to murder his own wife and shouting out angry threatening language like that whatsoever. I hate this song.

6 Rain Man

I love eminem, but he has to stop with the Christopher reeves crap. I mean this made him come across as a complete d! Ck. At least in medicine ball he explains why he does it but this is just awful. I mean "cause I ain't got no legs! " Is not what normal people say. Just a horrible album

I don't think there are any "bad" Eminem songs, but I'm not a big fan of this one. Especially the chorus. It sounds so weird, like he was losing his voice while singing it.

You find me offensive? I find you offensive for finding me offensive

Come on tell me that is not the best song lyric ever - Unnamed Google User Remade

I like this song because it's funny, and the hook is kinda catchy. But I can understand why it's on this list.

7 Insane

This song is a disgrace. Words simply cannot express how awful this is.

I played it once and IMMEDIATELY deleted it.

Just sickening.

And I'm someone who loves sick, darkly humorous lyrics of Eminem (the SSLP being the best example of such excellence), but this song was some of the worst I have ever heard.

Now, I'm no prude. I'm a deacated Stan. I grew up in Detroit, dammit! But this song is filthy. Dear god, it makes me blush just thinking about it. But I kinda like the second verse. Em has himself a sense of humour, don't get me wrong. But is this the best way to express it?

Eww. This song actually made me puke the first time I heard it. While some people like this song, I really don't, mainly because I can't stomach the lyrics. Look guys, I've tried, but I can't, so don't sue me please.

This song is so brilliantly messed up. Any song with the lyric and perfect pick-up line "I want you to feel me like my stepfather felt me." can't be that bad.

8 My 1st Single

This song is pretty much a signal of what's yet to come on the the rest of Encore. This is not only one of the worst songs on the album, but one of the worst songs of Eminem's career, period. The beat itself is lazy and godawful. It's a creepy, poorly-made rap beat with twinkling music boxes and percussion that sounds like a robot typing on a typewriter, then destroying it. And there's burping and diarrhea sounds, as well as weird synths on the chorus. My ears are bleeding already. As for Eminem... he's at his most obnoxious. It's like he read a couple of controversies and rumors of the 2000s celebrity scene, such as the ones with Britney Spears and Justin Timberlake, then raps about watching a CHILD PORN TAPE of the rumors. What else is there to say? This song is migraine-inducing, creepy, and cringe-worthy. It's one of the more unlistenable songs on the album, in my opinion.

Oh. My. God. With a beat like this I couldn't get myself to even listen to it a second time, this clapping sound effects sound like a construction site, that's a noise if you heard in real life you would want people to stop it. Then there are his verses... I get he was on drugs while recording the album but... Was he on sleeping pills during this particular song?

Also... I get "Fack", "Big Weenie" and "Rain Man" are in this list, though I find the first 2 quite funny in a silly, tasteless way, but seriously: "Kim"? Eminem at his darkest, morbid and most extreme? "Love the Way You Lie"? An important song about the serious topic of domestic violence with a strong hook and beat?
Really?

I mean, I love "Ass Like That" for its beat, melody and some funny lines, but I can see why people don't like it, but "Kim"?
Now listen to said song, and LTWYL again and tell me again they're worse than "My 1st Single"! A song so terribly poorly produced and delivered it's pure torture ...more

Put a couple of dentures on a table, and start drumming on it. You have the beat. Drink soda and eat beans. You have half the chorus. Drink a few cups of alcohol and try singing. You have the other half of the chorus. Look up some rumors of the early 2000s celebrity scene, and read them allowed, then you have the verses. Done.

Wow, not even ironically or painfully enjoyable like "Rain Man." Not saying that song was any good, but that song was light years ahead of this song. It pains me that this is only number nine. It is the second worst song on his second worst album.

9 We Made You

I think this gets too much hate. Is there some bad parts here? Yes. But if you can look past the accents and look at the lyrics, there are some genuinely clever punchlines. However, I must admit he tries too hard to be funny here, but at least it isn't lazy or uber-childish, like the entire encore album. This isn't one of his best but I think it should be a bit lower

This is actually my favorite Eminem song, as it does not go along the path of dissing other rappers but actually the fact that we let all these "celebreties" become as popular as they are. I believe that it is an incredible social statement and should be taken seriously, not made fun of.

Look, I have nothing about Eminem, but unfortunately, like most awesome rappers, they have a few duds. This is one of them. Why do you think Eminem keeps dissing his album Relapse over and over? At least he learned from his mistakes in his following albums.

I, being the accepting person I am, decided to revisit Relapse after seeing so many songs on here. You guys are right, it isn't terrible, but it's no SSLP. Hell, it isn't even a Encore. But some cuts are stunning (see: Deja vu, Beautiful, Careful what you wish for ). But this... When I first listened to it, I couldn't reckonise Em's voice. This accent...

10 Puke

This song is just not pleasant, very hard to listen to, and it's very awkward when my uncle and mom were singing it in the car, because this song is VERY bad. One of Eminem's worst!

If he removed the puking sounds from the songs, I would be able to listen to it.

This song is very catchy, the lyrics are great. This is one of my favorites from Eminem.

There aren't BAD Eminem songs. People just keep on comparing masterpieces like Stan and Lose Yourself with his newest work and that's annoying because an artist can't produce and recycle the same songs no matter how successful they were.

It's the vomiting that already ruins a pretty bad song. But the beat is awesome.

The Contenders
11 Wee Wee

Probably the worst rap song in history, and there are probably quite a few Em songs on that list even though he's a GOAT (also a pretty bad song).

"Put it on my wee wee (Banana, strawberry, pineapple, orange)"

This whole song is dedicated to condoms.

But this doesn't even count as a song! He was just messing around while recording and possibly trying to find a new flow. This should not be on this list, because it is just Em messing around, it was for fun and was not mean to me released.

What the hell did I just listen to? Like a more boring version of FACK!

Bad song.. But in Eminem's defense he didn't actually released it...

12 Love the Way You Lie

This song is just fresh trash... Rihanna is destroying Eminem songs! Where is the "monster", both of them are in a can... Eminem verses in those songs are OK not like rap god or beautiful, Marshall Mathers.

I don't really think this is a bad song. If he performed it at the grammys and got an award for it. This song was on the billboard charts so I like it.

I love this list so much! Finally a list that doesn't like this song! I hate this song so much! What I don't understand though is why is it so high on his best song list?

This song is stupid its like an insult to a great rapper like Eminem why is it even on the top ten list?!?! And Rihanna just makes it worse...

13 Drips

More disgusting lines then fack, fack isn't that bad of a song but seriously this one should be up the top! I am a huge fan of Eminem but this song is just no good

I thought Obie's verse was disgusting and that's coming from the guy who thought Insane was one of the best songs on Relapse.

Good for sex education on how not to get AIDS. Fack would also be useful. The students will get shocked though...

I like this song. It's fine lyrically, but people will be turned off by the disgusting content by Obie.

14 Foolish Pride

Eminem's racist and sexist tape here, discriminating black women, calling them gold diggers, having a really bad beat, and the lyrics are stupid such as: "Girl like to take my spinach because its green and that's cash"

To top it off, his stupid apology known as Yellow Brick Road is just dumb. All he says is he is sorry and that it doesn't matter what color a girl is, she is still a hoe. Way to apologize, Em.

I'd go with this.

I could've chose FACK but it was at #1
I could've chose Ken Kaniff but it's not a real song.

So I chose this. It's worse than Ass Like That. It's racist and mean.

How is this not number one? The beat is outrageously annoying, and he ACTUALLY says offensive stuff on this. All the others are masterpieces compared to this.

15 My Mom

This is genius because he's talking about his childhood and the things he has been through but he puts a comical twist in it and he makes it sound funny! It's like the funny aspect of "Cleanin' Out My Closet".

The lyrics are good, its just the way he sings it, so that's why this is the worst one to me. Mostly just because I don't have an Eminem song I don't like. The Monster is actually kinda good, not by much but yea.

This song is bulls***. And, this list is also bulls***. Not afraid, Love the way you lie, Space Bound and Mockingbird are Slim's best. They should not be on this list.

The lyrics aren't that bad but the voice that Eminem used on this ( and a lot of the other Relapse album songs) was kinda annoying.

16 C** On Everybody

One of his catchiest songs ever, hell, I'd say that this is catchier than Without Me (no offense to that song, I love that song too). But that flow though. This has one of the best flows I have ever seen on an Eminem track. Plus it's funny in a sick, sick way. Dark humour, I'd call it.

This is one of those songs that always makes me laugh. It's no music masterpiece, though. A fine, fine guilty pleasure of mine.

This song was meant to be funny. It's like a parody of party songs in the 90s. It's funny as hell.

I know people will be pissed because its on the sslp but god this was bad.

17 Bagpipes from Baghdad

Ugh, this is possibly a bottom 5 Eminem song for me. The song is a pain in the ass to listen to as the bagpipes in this song get really grating very quick. Also it's just disturbing for the sake of being disturbing like the majority of songs on this album.

I find it hard to believe that this song is in the same category as "Nail in the Coffin" or "Go To Sleep". This seems less like a diss song and more of a lame excuse for him to spit out every inappropriate thing to exist on the planet.

I'm a diehard Stan, but I'm with Mimi on this one.

His voice really annoys me here.

18 A** Like That

Just weird. For some reason he is rapping in a weird accent and talking about multiple women and their untouchable parts.

I hate this song so much I would vote it a second time so I did.

This is already on the list.

19 Ken Kaniff (Skit)

This is technically not an actual song, so it shouldn't really be on here. But yeah, it's really awful.

The only Keniff Kaniff skit I dislike, because the one on the SSLP was funny, and I even liked the one on the Eminem show at the end.

Not a song, but still, it's the only Ken Kaniff skit that isn't funny.

Why is this on the album? It's not funny. It's just disgusting.

20 Medicine Ball

Bit of a strangely bad song. While I don't like it, I like it. And I don't just like it unironically though. It actually fits the album really well. While I'm not a huge fan of Relapse, I'd recommend this song. So it gets a pass.

Medicine ball SUCKS! Grosser lines then Fack, and the chorus is dumber than a rock. Oh and by the way, the accent makes him sound so retarded, like who sings "I guess it's time for you to hate me now"

This song is a bunch of what the hell on a track. One of Relapse's better songs admittedly, though.

This song shouldn't be on here. Nice Dre beat, nice rhymes/flow. Strongly disagree

21 Nice Guy

This is pure trash, the hook is annoying, verses are awful and the worst part is Eminem's first verse going back to the hook, sounds like three completely different songs being pushed into one.

22 Buffalo Bill

I really didn't understand why he wanted to be a serial killer in this whole album, this is stupid, and it's not even dark, it's gross. Not scary, but terrible. I felt like he was still on his sleeping pill addiction throughout this whole album.

Screw this song. Em's not a serial killer, this is just him being proud of a serial murder that never happened. It's not gross or disturbing, but it's just plain boring. Also the voice is as annoying as nails on a chalkboard.

I partly like this song because of the fact Silence of the Lambs is my all-time favorite movie. But I'm known for unpopular opinions, so don't listen to me.

The songs based off a movie or something, he's not trying to pretend he did it

23 Berzerk

Em hasn't been this bad since his entire "Encore" album. The only good line is the opening line. "Now the s***'s about to kick-off this party looks whack, Lets take it back to straight Hip-Hop and start it from scratch. " That's the only good line out of the entire song. Luckily, he made up for it with the rest of the album, and he's still the worlds greatest rapper.

Not this isn't that bad... sure it doesn't have the best flow or even crack the top 5 on the album (Rap God, Survival, Legacy, Bad Guy, The Monster) but it's not his 15th worst song.

Not bad, definitely doesn't deserve #19, but compared to the rest of the Marshall Mathers LP2 (which is my favorite of his albums to be honest), it is the worst thing on it.

24 Heat
25 Numb

Heard it in concert by Eminem and Rihanna and that's the only reason I will listen to it when it comes on. Not a fan of this song though

Ugh, a song that repeats the same thing over and over. A cliche that should not exist.

Quote: "I'm the butt police and I'm staring at your rear, rear, rear."

Yesss!

I'm the butt police and I'm looking at your rear rear rear. Amazivy
