He’s sober on this album…..he was so sick he had to learn to recover and to even think, write, talk sober without the drugs in his system. Going through withdrawals and your mind and physical body rebel against you at times. It can take years since his mom had fed him prescription pills as a kid, his body and mind are messed up from all the drug use and not having the prescription or illegal drugs can almost be dangerous at times. Imagine not just recovering from over dosing but getting sober, staying sober, then getting physically mentally and emotionally healthy. Now you have to learn how to do everything you used to do almost like as a new person. You don’t have the crutch of drugs to help make you more creative or to numb certain emotions. It’s hard. He had to learn to rap again. Paul (his manager) has said in interviews he was afraid he wouldn’t be able to rap again because Em had to learn to even talk again. He came home out of rehab and watched a bunch of daytime television including serial killer documentaries like they used to have on A&E, and Discovery Channel. He ended up learning and memorizing stuff about almost all the famous historical killers while on hiatus. I can’t believe Eminem doesn’t care for this album. His rapping and tunes, cadence and unique songs and beats are just amazing 🤩- yes creepy but so so good

For some more Relapse: Same Song And Dance is awesome. Stay Wide Awake is the best song on the album imo. Deja Vu to cover his drug issues further. Beautiful (find the full version not the music video) for a different side within the same album.

You're confusing this album and moment with encore. He wasn't on drugs when he made this, he was recovering from it. He was on drugs when he wrote encore. In the song "Talking to myself" from the "Recovery" album, he had a line that goes - "My last 2 albums don't count/ Encore I was on drugs, Relapse I was flushing 'em out".

I really appreciate that you do the skits too since it can help better tell the story. I'd love for you to do the same for MTBMB and side B since they're not necessarily as "necessary" but they are fun!

erikahutchcraft pointed this out already but Eminem actually made most of this album coming down from his addiction and sobering up. He ODd before this album, and making this was something like a therapy for him and learning to rhyme again. Dr. Dre made most of the beats so Em could concentrate on getting back to rapping. This album is actually considered a special classic for many fans. And when he put out the next album Recovery he blew EVERYBODY's minds with bar heavy charting hits, solidifying his status as GOAT. Your reactions are pretty fun, thank you! 🔥

When asked if he had any ideas for the video, he said his only requirement was he wanted to be in a tub of blood. Was made at an actual institute that was still partially in use, so that was tricky. Was very cold and they couldn't keep the "blood" warm enough so it was rather miserable. Em's two podcasts with Paul right before Curtain Call 2 are a must listen to. So are the other ones Paul did too.

We on the Horror s**t now? Greeeat😀So then I recommend to react to "same song and dance" and one of my absolute favs "STAY WIDE AWAKE" this song is insane with the rhymes and the rhythms... Alone the beat is sick... the base is like when you hear the heartbeat of the Victims in Horror Movies. And the whole E-guitar thing is made in a very straight and "dry" dual rhythm like the killer that isn't affected by any emotions, do his thing like routine "mechanical and tireless"

To learn about the making of this video, listen to the Paul Pod curtain call 2 with James Larese. He talks this video and others. Then Em and Paul talk about it too.
