Curtain Call: The Hits is the first greatest hits album by American rapper Eminem. It was released on December 6, 2005, under Aftermath Entertainment, Shady Records, and Interscope Records. The album collects Eminem's most popular singles, as well as four new songs, including a live version of "Stan", featuring English singer and songwriter Elton John from the 43rd Grammy Awards, plus the songs "FACK", "When I'm Gone" and "Shake That" featuring Nate Dogg.

Curtain Call: The Hits. Released December 6, 2005. Curtain Call: The Hits Tracklist. 1. Intro (Curtain Call) Lyrics. About Curtain Call: The Hits. A collection of Eminem’s greatest hits from 1999 – 2004, as well as 3 new songs. This compilation album closed a chapter for Eminem, who went on a musical hiatus not long after it was released. The album also broke a record for the longest charting rap album, charting for over 350 weeks. Curtain Call: The Hits Q&A.

If Eminem's Curtain Call: The Hits really is his final bow and not merely a clever denouement to his series of Eminem Show and Encore albums, it's a worthy way to retire. And even if he stages a comeback years from now, there's little question that the first five years of his career, spanning four albums plus a soundtrack, will be his popular and creative peak, meaning that the time is right for Curtain Call - it has all the songs upon which his legend lies. Which isn't necessarily the same things as all the hits

Curtain Call: The Hits is the first greatest hits compilation album released by American rapper Eminem. It collects Eminem's most popular songs, as well as four new tracks, including a live version of "Stan" featuring Elton John from the 43rd Grammy Awards, plus new songs "Fack", "When I'm Gone" and "Shake That" featuring Nate Dogg. It was released on December 6, 2005, under Dr. Dre's Aftermath Entertainment. The album was certified double-platinum in the US, triple-platinum in Australia and the UK, and quadruple-platinum in New Zealand.

The songs Curtain Call culls from that album are fine, but had little to do with the outrage he caught from parents, GLAAD, and the conservative right. The Real Slim Shady" made him profitable; songs like "Kim" and "Kill You" made him interesting. Stan", however, still stands out as an exception. Third album The Eminem Show is repped here by two songs: "Without Me", and the underrated "Cleanin' Out My Closet", which contributed as much to the confusing Freudian glints in Em's persona as anything else he's done. Which leaves the compilation's four new throw-ins: the Nate Dogg collaboration "Shake That", the ridiculously inane "FACK", and new single "When I'm Gone" are all desolate placeholders- lesser versions of Eminem songs that already piss me off.

However, taking a look at his recent greatest hits album Curtain Call: The Hits, its difficult to not see why he became the monster presence he is today. Eminem includes: Slim Shady-Vocals Marshall Mathers-Vocals Eminem-Vocals. After a little intro, we are introduced to the first new cut on the album, FACK. The best way to describe this song would be to give a little word count of a few, select words. Which isn't necessarily the same things as all the hits. And that means Curtain Call isn't just a good way to bow out, but it's a great greatest-hits album by any measure. Stephen Thomas Erlewine. Dre's Aftermath Entertainment

It slipped from no. 1 to no. 4 in its third week but surged 33 percent to finish with sales close to 430,000.
