Rap God was released by Eminem in October 2013 as a single from The Marshall Mathers LP 2, and it became famous for a six-minute performance built around an extraordinarily fast verse. The track later drew attention for packing 1,560 words into its runtime, a feat that was recognised as a record for a hit single at the time. Clips of the fastest section spread through reaction videos, edits, and speed challenges online, and the song remains a shorthand for lyrical speed and technical skill in hip-hop.
