Eminem has revealed one of 50 Cent's verses on "Places to Go" from the '8 Mile' soundtrack almost convinced him to quit rapping.
The 44-year-old "Not Afraid" hitmaker recorded a personal video for his friend and rapper 50 Cent's birthday in which he rapped his favourite verse from "Places To Go".
"Yo Fif, first off I want to say happy birthday. Secondly, I want to remind you of the verse you did that made me want to quit rapping," he said in the clip.
"Picture a perfect picture/ Picture me in a pimp hat/ Picture me starting s**t/ Picture me busting my gat/ Picture police mad they ain't got a picture of that," he re-created the tongue-twister verse in the video.
Cent thanked Eminem for his sweet gesture and said, "you're still the best in the world.
