Word. I feel like that was his signature lead single. I'm basing it on lead singles of his solo albums. TRSS was during a time of his prime and the music captured the hype surrounding him at the time.

This guy aint no crip, and I'm 100% sure on that because he doesn't type like a crip, I know crips, and that fool is not a crip.

My first memory was My Name Is and the hype in my school cause he was seen as too rude for little kids, so everyone wanted to hear his albums of course.  :P Remember one boy bought SSLP and us all taking turns to listen to My Name IS on his walkmen. My best ememory of Em is when we were in a music lesson and the teacher was real pissed off. SOme boy got on the xylophone and started playing The Real SLim Shady and we all sang along lmao uhh good times back in primary school

Interesting thing about Eminem's four albums is that the first single really indicated the quality of the rest of the album.  Marshall Mathers LP was his best album (Dre calls it the closest thing to a perfect album he's ever done) and it had the best lead single, "Real Slim Shady".  Then Em's worst album came with the worst single, which was "Just Lose It" for the record Encore which was kind of his farewell to rap because he knew he just couldn't bring it like he used to, he'd lost his desire and best he could come up with was burping, farting, and making fun of Michael Jackson.

"Lose Yourself" may be the song that he is most remembered for decades from now.  That will be his lasting legacy, his greatest record of all time.

My personal favorite Em track was also on 8 Mile, the title track "8 Mile Road".

Lose Yourself; although other leadsingles are also brilliant in different ways

Definitely "Lose Yourself" out of those. "Real Slim Shady" is king of his pop tracks though.
