Marshall Mathers III, who is professionally known as Eminem, is still the favourite “white boy” of his protégé Curtis James Jackson III, who is professionally known as 50 Cent. The two rappers collaborated in the song “Patiently Waiting,” which is from the 2003 album “Get Rich or Die Tryin.’”

“Hey Em, you know you my favorite white boy, right?” 50 Cent raps n the opening part of “Patiently Waiting.” "I, I owe you for this one.”

After several years, 50 Cent took to Instagram to share a photo of himself with Eminem. He included “Patiently Waiting” lyrics in the caption and promoted the vodka brand he is endorsing, which is Effen Vodka.

Here's a throw back, EMINEM is still my favorite white boy. I will always love him for what he did for me, he put me on and never once did I feel he didn't believe in me over the years. #EFFENVODKA #FRIGO #SMSAUDIO
