==Content==
The song was Eminem's return after the successful ''The Marshall Mathers LP'', intended as a sequel to "The Real Slim Shady" and essentially saying that he is back to save the world. It also refers to Eminem's role in the music industry and his effect on culture.

The song mocks a number of Eminem's critics, including then-Vice-President Dick Cheney (including his recurring heart problems) and his wife Lynne, the FCC, Chris Kirkpatrick (of NSYNC), Limp Bizkit and Moby,<ref name="Disses1">{{cite web|url=http://top40-charts.com/news.php?nid=2764|title=Eminem Explains His Disses Of Moby & Chris Kirkpatrick In 'Without Me'|work=Top40-Charts.com|accessdate=April 25, 2015}}</ref><ref name="Disses2">{{cite web|url=http://www.mtv.com/news/articles/1453610/eminem-takes-shots-on-without-me.jhtml|title=Eminem Goes After Moby, Limp Bizkit On 'Without Me'|work=MTV News|accessdate=April 25, 2015}}</ref> as well as parodying Prince's decision to change his name to a symbol. It also lampoons comparisons of him to Elvis Presley as a white man succeeding commercially in a predominantly black art form. A line also attacks his mother Debbie Mathers for the lawsuit she filed for the lyrics of his debut single "My Name Is".

The opening lyric ''"Two trailer park girls go round the outside"'' is based on the country rap single "Buffalo Gals" by Malcolm McLaren.<ref name="spin2019">{{cite magazine |title=59 Hay-Ya!

==Music video==
The music video of the song features a number of scenarios built around its context, including Eminem and Dr. Dre as parodies of comics in general, specifically Batman, Robin (Rapboy), and Blade trying to save a child who bought a copy of ''The Eminem Show'' that has a Parental Advisory sticker. Eminem and his band of heroes rush to the rescue before the child puts the CD in his CD player and when they arrive Rap boy (Eminem) snatches it away from him, showing that his CD has explicit lyrics that is not suitable for him to listen to. The kid cries and is upset after Rap Boy (Eminem) and Blade (Dr Dre) take the Eminem Show album away from the kid. The video was shot in April at Barwick Studios.<ref>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g2AyzCE7Ygc</ref> The comic panel contains the rabbit from ''You're a Superstar''. Early on, Eminem appears throughout some of the video where he is on a hospital bed being pushed through a ward (a reference to ''ER'', which here is called ''ƎM'' drawing from the rapper's stage name). Porn star Jenna Jameson and fitness model Kiana Tom appear in bed with Eminem at the beginning of the video. Eminem also dressed up in various costumes as Osama bin Laden as he is chased by D12 on channel ƎNN, a spoof of the news channel CNN, a TV-ad salesman shocking a look alike of then-Vice-President Dick Cheney, his mother Debbie Mathers being flipped off, Elvis Presley dancing in his bathroom, eating a sandwich out of the toilet and defecating in it, a ''Survivor'' contestant competing in a challenge against Jenna Lewis (of ''Survivor: Borneo'' and later ''Survivor: All-Stars'') and Lindsey Richter (of ''Survivor: Africa'') on a log later revealed to be a turd in the Elvis's toilet, and Moby getting body-slammed by Obie Trice. Nate Samara, Eminem's brother, D12, and [[Biography:Xzibit|Xzibit]] also appear in the talk show scene. The video also features a Lamborghini Murcielago (referred to as the "Rapmobile", parodying the Batmobile). Also the video leaves in words like 'ass', 'bitch', and 'bastard' while on the clean album they were censored.

This video received MTV Video Music Awards for Video of the Year, Best Male Video, Best Rap Video, and Best Direction (for Joseph Kahn), as well as gaining nominations for Best Editing and Viewer's Choice. It also won Best Short Form Music Video at the Grammy Awards of 2003.

Clips of the video for "Without Me" can also be seen playing in a number of other music videos, including 50 Cent's "In da Club", Tony Yayo's "I Know You Don't Love Me" and Dr. Dre's "I Need a Doctor".

On June 16, 2009, the music video was uploaded to Eminem's YouTube channel. As of July 2020, the video has over 940&nbsp;million views and 5.5&nbsp;million likes.
