Eminem reflects on his sobriety and how his overdose affected him.

The rapper recently joined his manager Paul Rosenberg on his podcast, “Paul Pod.” Slim Shady and his manager discussed how he came back from his 2007 methadone overdose.

“I remember when I first got sober, and all the shit was out of my system. I remember just being, like, really happy, and everything was f*cking new to me again,” he said, reflecting on creating his ‘Relapse’ album two years later. “It was the first album and the first one that I had fun recording in a long time.”

He added, “It was like the first time I started having fun with music again and relearning how to rap. You remember that whole process, [it] took a long time for my brain to start working again.”

Rosenberg said he thought the rapper had suffered from brain damage after the overdose.

“I thought you might have some permanent problems, Rosenberg said. “I was concerned, for sure.”

The first song Eminem wrote following his recovery was “Detroit Baseball,” which they both agreed wasn’t the best.

“It was f*cking weird because as my brain started turning back on, I started going over lines like, ‘Wait, that’s not good,’” the rapper said.

Later in the interview, Eminem recalled taking “75-80 Valium” a night during his detox.

“I don’t know how you survived that,” Rosenberg replied. “You almost didn’t. That’s the truth.”

The interview is part of a seven-episode limited podcast series that launched in August. The series celebrates Eminem and the release of his album “Curtain Call 2.”
