Eminem isn't holding back when it comes to his drug addiction. With recent interviews in Vibe and XXL magazines, Eminem continued his story telling with his newest single "Beautiful" [download now] hitting iTunes today (May 12th). The new track paints a picture of the struggle he went through during the time he was out of the spotlight.
Eminem recently talked about the song saying "There's only one song on the record that I produced. It's a track called 'Beautiful.'" [download now] Em continued in the interview saying "And one of the only reasons that I put that track on there is that I feel like it's the best song out of that batch that I did when I wasn't sober. At the time I felt like, 'This is it for me.' I wrote the first verse and a half in rehab, and when I came out, I finished it. It was the only song that marks that period without bringing me back to that place. Every other track not only didn't fit with the album, but when I listened to it, it would bring up bad memories."
