* Music/{{Eminem}} has done several affectionate parodies of songs he likes, occasionally in brief passages. He also likes to do parodies of songs by people he is trying to insult.
** Eminem's first {{diss track}} to [[Music/HouseOfPain Everlast]], "I Remember (Dedication To Whitey Ford)", is a parody of the blues rock that Everlast had switched to making, which is intended [[CopycatMockery to insult him for switching genres]]. Eminem spells this out during the last verse - "''I can sing better than you and I don't fuckin' sing! And probably play guitar better, and I ain't never touched a string.''".
** Eminem's "The Watcher" [[FreestyleVersion freestyle]] is a spoof of Music/DrDre's the original "The Watcher" (which Eminem [[{{Ghostwriter}} wrote]] and provided backing vocals for). At the end he switches to the beat of Dre's "Let's Get High" (which Eminem also wrote) and raps a few lines in an imitation of Dre's voice.
** In "Marshall Mathers", Eminem sings a minor-key, obscene version of the first lines from "Summer Girls" by LFO -- "''Music/NewKidsOnTheBlock suck a lot of dick / boy/girl groups make me sick / and I can't wait until I catch all you faggots in public! Imma love it!''"
** Eminem starts his verse in "Bitch Please II" by spoofing Music/SnoopDogg's verse in the original "Bitch Please", in an impression of his voice.
** "Just Lose It" is a parody of 80s PopRap, particularly Music/MCHammer, though it breaks into a spoof of his own "Lose Yourself" at one point.
** "Rhyme Or Reason" is a spoof of "Rolling Stone" by Black Hippy. Particularly note the way that, in "Rolling Stone", the rappers hand over to each other in the middle of a line -- Eminem mocks this by switching in mid-line to the voice of [[Franchise/StarWars Yoda]]. Even his flow is an overwrought, hyperextended version of the "Rolling Stone" flow. The hook is also a parody of Music/TheZombies's "Time Of The Season" -- "''Let me take you by the hand to promised lands, and threaten everyone... there's [[ForTheEvulz no rhyme, or no reason for nothing!]]''"
** "Rap God" contains a passage which is a spoof of the ringtone rap 'classic' "Lookin' Boy" by Hotstylz.
** "Greatest" is a spoof of Music/KendrickLamar's "HUMBLE".

** Notably, Freberg's unusual angle was that his spoofs usually keep the music and lyrics of the original; the parody is in the ''way'' the songs are performed. By the end of a Freberg parody, the spoofed performer's vocal tics, stylistic oddities, and/or general egotism lead to all hell breaking loose in the recording studio.
