Imagine you’ve got a job interview. How do you feel? Now have a blast of 50 Cent’s In Da Club. Ignore the urge to sip Bacardi and concentrate on your confidence. Feel more empowered?

According to research published by the Society For Personality And Social Psychology, the rap hit is the perfect song to boost confidence in situations such as interviews and meetings with your boss. The study, which found that high bass levels are linked to dominant behaviour, also rated Queen’s We Will Rock You and 2 Unlimited’s Get Ready for This as power songs.

What’s your favourite song to psyche yourself up? Let us know if you have a pre-interview nerve calmer, or maybe you like to pop to the bathroom and mime Barry White?
