Interesting point that he recorded around 5/6 songs about Proof.

His prior realisations about his drug use are also illuminating. A reactionary view of this forum recently has been that Eminem's first 3 big-label albums were 'sober', but with the way he was taking drugs it would appear this would only be the case if he was writing the tracks at home. SSLP is probably his most sober album in that time period, which I find ironic to a certain degree.

"But the truth is, I get bored just sitting around. I’m ready to be back out there. I love to be respected for the music that I make, and that’s what I’m in it for. The beautiful thing about this record is, I don’t expect it to do anything… Money is not necessarily something that I need anymore, so I’m doing it because I want to do it. I’m doing it because I want people to hear the music and like the music… If people like it, cool. If they don’t, they don’t. I certainly would like the benefits of what would come with it. If it could help generate more money for the label, then that’s good. But, at the end of the day, it’s just about the music."

Recovery and the MMLP2 features say hello.

That was his mindstate when he did Relapse.

“What do you think people want to hear from me anymore?” He’d be like, “People want to hear you lose your fuckin’ mind again.”

THATS THE DOCTOR FOR YOU!
