"Business" is a song by the rapper Eminem, released in 2003 as a single internationally, except in the U.S.. It was from his worldwide hit album, "The Eminem Show," which was released in 2002. In the song, Eminem talks about him and Dr. Dre working together like Batman & Robin (as suggested in the music video for "Without Me") in the "rap mobile," to set the hip hop music world straight. It features Dre's trademark "hell yeah" shout.

There is a line in this song that describes himself and Dr. Dre as "the most feared duet since me and Elton played career Russian Roulette", referring to Eminem performing "Stan" at the Grammy Awards of 2001.

Another line rhymes, "How can shit be so easy? / How can one Chandra be so Levy?" This line is in reference to then-missing Washington, D.C. intern Chandra Levy, whose remains were found in a D.C. park only four days before The Eminem Show's U.S. release. The chorus mocks Insane Clown Posse: "Must be a circus in town/let's shut the shit down on these clowns/can I get a witness?".

There is no official music video for this song, so music video channels usually play live versions of the song instead.
