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 Kid Cashier on April 14, 2009 at 8:13pm - chris ur still a fuckin dumbass... lol. u think em reads this shit or give a fuck wat u think. And how am i not a true hip hop head?? when ur talkin shit and gettin mad cuz i kno what the fuck im talk bout and proved ur bullshit theory wrong! Quit cryin u pussy bitch! get off wayne and Em's nuts u ho....talkin bout y em y??? boo hoo mutha fucka! grow some fuckin nuts and quit jockin bitch! beef shit is played out! if u dont believe me look at ross and 50.. dont nobody care bout that shit anymore! well maybe u cuz u aint got shit else to do cept sit ur fat ass in front of thisis50 all day long waitin for a chance to talk shit!! if u go to worldstar,24hourhiphop,sohh, or any other hip hop site u see that nobody talks bout that shit anymore! And with Em, Wayne,Ti,and 50 havin so many fans, them doin a song together would sell more than a beef would! I mean look at how popular renegade was! when jay and Em did that it was a classic, but if they dissed each other, they woulda lost fans when people started to take sides! Plus it made em go harder than ever before cuz he had somethin to prove by bein on wax with hov. but ur cake ass prolly wanna those internet thugs who gets angry when shit dont go their way huh? either that or them steroids u take fuckin with ur emotions u bitch! body buildin ho! eat cock u fag! but real talk bloggers are ho ass dudes who need to get lives! by the way... u can say u a fan all u want, but a true fan would respect an artist decision no matter wat. keep bloggin and keep real hip hop out ur mouth, cuz u an actor dawg, and i live this shit u bitch made ho!
