"Fight Music" is a hip hop single by the rap group D12 from their debut album Devil's Night. The song features various lyrics about violence and dangerous street fighting except in two verses: Bizarre's, which features various graphic subjects, namely oral sex with his grandmother, and Eminem's, which talks about the youth, how they feel and how they relate with this song and other songs. The song was produced by Dr. Dre.

According to Denaun Porter, Eminem considers this song his "best vocal performance ever, in his whole career. From the verse to the hook, he felt like that was his best."

In a list of the 40 greatest songs produced by Dr. Dre, Rolling Stone ranked “Fight Club” at number 37, calling D12 “truly underrated” and describing the track as a highlight of the group’s Devil’s Night debut. The magazine praised how “Dre’s bass rhythm and Mike Elizondo’s ringing guitar lines lend the performers a raw, emphatic sound,” while noting that the song resonated with listeners who were less receptive to some of the group’s more shock-oriented horrorcore material.
