Exclusive Cover Eminem Punishes XXL
On His Drug Addiction
“I wasn’t really mentally. I wasn’t ready to give up drugs. I didn’t really think I had a problem. Basically, I went in, and I came out. I relapsed, and I spent the next three years struggling with it. Also, at that time, I felt like I wanted to pull back, because my drug problem had got so bad. I felt like, Maybe if I take a break, maybe this will help. I started to get into the producer role more…I can still be out there with my music, like with the Re-Up album, but I don’t have to be in the spotlight the whole time.”
On Proof’s Death
“Everyone felt his loss, from his kids, to his wife, to everyone. But, for some reason, in hindsight, the way I felt was almost like it happened to just me…Maybe at the time I was a little bit selfish with it. I think it kind of hit me so hard. It just blindsided me. I just went into such a dark place that, with everything, the drugs, my thoughts, everything. And the more drugs I consumed, and it was all depressants I was taking, the more depressed I became, the more self-loathing I became…By the way, I’m just now at the point where I’m better talking about it. It took me so long to get out of that place where I couldn’t even speak about it without crying or wanting to cry…Proof was the anchor. He was everything to D12. And not just the group-for me, personally, he was everything.”
On T.I., Lil Wayne & Hip-Hop
“I stayed up on the music, and obviously I watch TV and saw what was going on. And without naming any name, it just felt like hip-hop was going downhill. And it seemed like kinda fast. You know, in them three years, it was like everybody just cares about the hook and the beat; nobody really cares about substance. But with this new T.I. album, with this new Lil Wayne album of recent, it seems like things are looking a lot better now. You can appreciate Lil Wayne using different words to rhyme and actually rhyming words that you know. Or T.I., where you hear shit and you’re like Whoa, ah, I wish I would have thought of that! You know what I mean? Or you hear all the compound-syllable rhyming and all that. It just seems like now the craft is getting cared about more

Comment by chris on April 15, 2009 at 4:04pm - kid no cash, you back for more huh pussy, you like a bitch that gets fucked and then gets no call back, now you mad, huh. well, i see you want all them to make a super song, with em, wayne, ti, and 50 huh. for one, im not going hate, that would probley be interesting, but i dont want to hear no song like that fuck boy. For one, you say jay and em had a classic in renegade which is true, but wayne, ti, 50 and em???? Noooooo! Ti and wayne been on numerous songs together, but do you consider them classics???? no dummy! i bet you dont even know the names of the songs they was on other than swagger like us. Its just like the yankees, just because you put all the talent on one team, doesnt mean the best, that formula you put together with them artist dont mean the song will be classic shit head. Since em and wayne are too pussy to battle each other, i would like to see them on a concept battle track on a crazy beat, going at it for bout 6 min. And last thing, i hate when bloggers comment on bloggers like your dumb ass not commenting on these topics as well, you talking bout internet thugs like you didnt come at me first and shit, bitch you a fucking internet thug dummy, i commented on the topic, and you commented on my comment, i see you on my dick, you fucking wayne stan, and em dick rider, you on everybody dick, you smut hoe, go find another bone too suck, because your moms got mine occupied already fuck boy
