A canção foi escrita apressadamente por Eminem, Dr. Dre, Tommy Coster e Mike Elizondo nas horas finais antes do prazo limite para a entrega do álbum The Marshall Mathers LP, atendendo ao pedido de Jimmy Iovine da Interscope Records de ter uma faixa para introduzir o disco.
O refrão da música foi projetado por Eminem para imitar o som de uma motosserra ligando, replicando o aumento súbito de ritmo e o salto de tom característicos do motor da máquina ao entrar em funcionamento.
A letra faz uma crítica direta aos pop stars da época, provocando a ira de Christina Aguilera ao sugerir que ela praticava sexo oral em Fred Durst e Carson Daly, e de Chris Kirkpatrick do NSYNC, que chamou Eminem de "bully" após uma coreografia na videoclipe.
A faixa garantiu a Eminem seu primeiro primeiro lugar no Reino Unido, tornou-se a 14ª música mais vendida de 2000 nesse país e venceu o Grammy de Melhor Performance Rap Solo, além de dois prêmios MTV Video Music Awards.
A estrutura do refrão parodia a frase de abertura do programa de quiz To Tell the Truth ("Will the real ______ please stand up?"), adaptada para desafiar os imitadores da persona Slim Shady.
Eminem sátiriza o rap "limpo" comercializado de Will Smith e seu discurso nos VMAs, declarando explicitamente "So fuck him, and fuck you too", expandindo um diss anterior feito no vídeo de "Forgot About Dre" de Dr. Dre.
