[SajN]

It's new, and it was in norwegian, so I just copied the text in to google translator, so there's probably many grammatical mistakes, and maybe some norwegian words too. But I hope you get it, cuz I dont wanna translate it all by myself lol.

A lot is already known.. but I decided to post here anyway..


The prodigal son's return
King Size had the opportunity to chat with the rapking himself, Eminem, when he previously visited in London in conjunction with the release of the comeback album "Relapse".
He is against us in my next mix of the table in a studio in London. The 36-year-old rapper Marshall "Eminem" Mather has just completed the exercises in front of his first live performance of material from the new CD Relapse. "Most days in the last four years has been" pretty fucking gloomy, "he replied to a question about how a typical day has seen the last time. "I've been on a pretty dark place the last time. I held on for seven, eight consecutive years without taking a break from washers, promotion, toured, movies - everything just rolled on. When I allow myself to enter drug rehabilitation in 2005, I was forced to put on and decrease the tempo. I would retire from the limelight.

In principle, we were ready to send him to the grave. The bags with extacy, crates of vodka and spray bottles of bleach were already ordered. We should all shout "Yeah, fuck you too!" One last time, and then fling him out from the trunk and dump him in the ocean, just as he did with his mother to daughter in the classic "Just the Two of Us". Farewell, you sick bastard. It was fun while it lasted.

Eminem - "Just the Two of Us" (The Slim Shady EP - 1998)




The fire appeared to be extinct. On the album Encore from 2004, had the intense and brilliant rapper, who taught us to love his daughter and hate his mother, started to hear like a tired and uinspirert asterisk. Shock rapper had been transformed into a emorocker. In the song "When I'm Gone" from 2005, it appeared that he took goodbye, and described himself as a kind man, tormented by the burden of their own progress and the price he had to pay in their private lives. Rapper who once said that he had always believed that he complex way to budget for would be an obstacle to global prosperity, had become the new millennium, its most popular popstar. But the summer of 2005 he abandoned the European part of his Anger Management Tour, and into rehab after being heavily dependent on specific pain relievers and sleeping pills. Rapper, as driven by extacy and vodka own hands had moved hiphop-the barriers to come, was a thing of the past. In "When I'm Gone", he had a gun shot killed Slim Shady once and for all. Slim Shady had been his creative fuel since long time back. Already in 1999 he said: "I have a sick form of humor. I try to crawl under the skin of the people so that they will listen to rimene, and when they do, then they hear a unique way to Rappe on. They have never heard so many words before the budget. "

Eminem - "When I'm Gone" (Curtain Call - 2005)




Slim Shady Eminem had given a unique voice in hip hop. Helped him to create a universe of verbal acrobatics, and a redundant unit horn of the syllable in which the entire opinion as to rime. But now was the Slim Shady death. It seems like the final nail in the career of hip hop white gold boy had been hammered into his musical counterpart Proof shootout died of injuries he pådro during a fight in a nightclub in Detroit 8 Mile Road. Eminem Proof had called his entry to ghettoen, the person who had required respect for him in Detroit's underground scene and guided him all the way to the top. All we thought that death would Proofs involve the end of Eminem. But he is back. And he does not need pills, vodkaen or hårblekingen longer. Four years after he suddenly disappeared from public life, is a resurrected, detoxifier and trained Eminem back in the limelight. His bright blonde hair has taken back to its natural brown color, and his posture is relaxed about no Innadvendt.

How did you to keep your career started simultaneously with your addiction? I assume that I failed it, and it was a big reason why I decided to retire. When I came home from rehab, I gave away my pills for three weeks combined. I was there for two weeks of detoxification and tried to keep me to the program, but in mind I knew that when I just had me come out there, so I came to fall back to old habits. When I came out from two weeks of rehab, I had me on the mat for a week before I started with Vicodin (painkillers) again. At this point I felt continued that I could handle it. That I could take it one day and the next day not.

You felt that you needed to take it to act, be in the limelight, be a star?
Yes, in the beginning of my career it always felt as if I could do all that; go in drunk, eating mushrooms and extacy and still have control over it. I could shut off. When I was home, I do not want to keep on with it. But when I was out on tour, so it was like a big party where all held on. It was not like that I and my procession slept with us lots of dope, but the type of audience I pulled the drug was quite liberal. Wherever I went, so I heard "Yo Em, I have lots of mushrooms", "Yo Em, I have some E!". And liquor, we had always with us. But at one point was the party turned into a habit where I started drinking and taking Valium before each spillejobb to calm nerves. Valium I had often taken to get to sleep at night, but somewhere along the way was the way that I felt that I needed them to be able to stand on stage. As if I would present the better.

It is no wonder that Eminem's public so often offered him drugs. Drugs have always been a theme in his music. He performed in scenes that were decorated with "magic mushrooms" and the nonsense about his drug and alcohol intake in the interviews. On Relapse is there more to get rid of addiction. He rapper, among other things, about the time in 2007 when he had got some new pills, fell together in the bathroom and was rushed off to hospital. He had taken an overdose of methadone, corresponding four bags of heroin.

I interviewed you in fact ten years ago when you were in Amsterdam to promote your CD...
Since it was in Amsterdam I remember it probably will not.

I remember that in any case, for I tried to keep me nykter the day. On stage, there was a big guy with the needles in the arms, there was a lot of jokes about drugs, but it still seemed as if it were a harmless mood. When stopped it to be harmless?
Frankly speaking, so I do not use drugs before I started Rappe about it. That was when I went on tour and began to talk about it. That was when everything started. People who came over to me: "Yo Em, I have it here and here ...". What I remember particularly well, more than anything else, was when we played in 8 Mile. It was when I first came in contact with the sleep agent Ambien. We worked 18 hours a day, and had a small sekstimers break to go home and sleep. I lived an hour from the film, as it meant in the best four hours of sleep. I was used to take Ambien every night. When the film was finished, we went on tour, and now I needed it every day after the concert. And I do not know if I had alcohol problems or not. I think if it had not been for the tablets, so I had been an alcoholic

Is this the first CD we hear a nykter Eminem?
Hm ... no. The first disks. I think I was nykter the first two, and a large part of The Eminem Show. In any case, when I recorded ...

So the drug theme is at that time more fantasy than reality? Yes. Then I could shut off and put on. I never saw that warning lights are already flashing in my family. I was never aware of the part of my family history, the genetic.

Relapse is dedicated to Proof. In the album booklet Eminem writes that he had not been where he is today if it were not for Proof, and that he was wrong again on this CD because it is what Proof had wanted.

"Fuck 'em all, let's get' em!"

And on the way the character Slim Shady popping up again on Relapse. He has found a new country scorecard in the form of Kim Kardashian, and talking about breaking his addiction, but the greater part of the CD could have been recorded several years ago, with Eminem as insults his mother, Mariah Carey, Britney Spears and the Superman-deceased actor Christopher Reeve. Slim Shady is actually criticized in a skit on the album because he is funny at the expense of a lamb, and now dead actor, but he cares not. And it is appropriate for a figure that in the song "3 AM" looks around for a McDonald's after a blackout, only to discover that he has killed all - again.

Eminem - "3 a.m." (Relapse - 2009)




Eminem knows what his listeners think, and the rapper "you're probably tired of hearing about my mom", just to take the topic to a whole new level. Mother is no longer just a Rusa witch, he is fighting now, even with similar problems. Morales is that he has been that his mother, and acidic to add that she used to crush the pills and put it in his food to keep him still as a child. On Relapse Eminem has, almost without exception, given its Alterego the manic tone that he uses to emphasize his akrobatiske syllable further treatment. His lyrics are completely driven by rimene. He has no problems with Kim Kardashian ( "She has a great ass"), but when he writes rimene their name fits her so well in a stream of malicious rimeord. He feels freer than ever. The proof is in the song "Insane", a brutal song where rapper Eminem to be a little boy who will play with his teddy bear (Teddy Ruxpin), and repeatedly raped by her stepfather. It is a consequence of the advice he received from Dr. Dre before he released this album. "I asked him many times when I tried to find out how I would do it with my comeback, and every time he said the same thing: they want to see get lost again, they will see you crazy."

Eminem - "Insane" (Relapse - 2009)




We thought you had killed Slim Shady in the song "When I'm Gone", but now it seems that he has re-emerged?
Yup, Slim Shady can not die. He has been shot, the blade pinched, you name it, but he always comes back.

Why it works so well for you to be Slim Shady?
I think he gives me the opportunity to have an excuse for being an asshole. He is a character I created, which does not differ from a movie role. If you play a certain person in a movie, for example, a mass murderer, so it does not mean you're a mass murderer when the cameras stop filming. There is even a way for you to be creative.

But you play a lot of facts and imagination. You talk about your family, you're talking about real problems you are fighting with, and now you have this mark. People ask you about what is true or not. As the song "Insane", a very graphic song about being sexually exploited by his stepfather. I've seen posts on the web where people are wondering what it means for something?
Hahaha. There are certainly lots of things on this album that people will talk about. Fuck with us or he? But a song like "Insane" is a perfect example of a rim that has gone to hell. What rimer for "fucked in the head"? Jo, "sucked in the bed" and "Teddy Ruxpin instead"! It transformed him, and I thought "I do not know, but the same shit. I must NOK follow up this thread. " And that is why the refrain goes: "Is he nuts? No, he's insane. "

Now that you're back, do you think you are going to disappear again?
I do not know. I can not Rappe in all eternity, but I's sure to continue to write. I always come to fix my thoughts on paper.

In "When I'm Gone", it also seems as if you are worried about your music affect your private life and your daughter. Is there anything you have learned to live with now? Yes, I believe it. After all, as I am a kusntner, and this is my art. No matter how sick it may seem now, or where teite these thoughts may be. It's like painting a painting, and if they are sick, so it's there because it was how I felt when I painted it. I will never to limit myself and think "Wow, I can say it here, or not?". I just want to float freely in the creative and say what I think. Whether it's fun, slemt or encouraging. Whatever it may be, that is what I want to say
