In case you forgot, not too long ago, former US president Barack Obama released a list of songs which he said inspired him during his time in office.

One of those tracks just happened to be a little Eminem gem called Lose Yourself.

Now, in a video shared by ATTN: on Instagram, Barack Obama once again discussed his love for the Slim Shady classic, even gifting us with a dramatic reading of the track straight from his book.

"Need some inspiration? Here's @barackobama doing a dramatic reading of Eminem's "Lose Yourself" - one of his hype songs from the 2008 presidential campaign," ATTN: captioned the short clip on Instagram. Well, turns out Eminem saw the video, and he approves. 

A Twitter user shared a screengrab from Eminem's Instagram Stories, in which the rapper posted the ATTN: video along with the "praying" or "grateful" hands emoji to show his appreciation.
