“‘Encore’ was mediocre. And with ‘Relapse’ — it was the best I could do at that point in time. (‘Relapse’) was a funny album for me because I was just starting back rapping after coming out of addiction. I was so scatterbrained that the people around me thought that I might have given myself brain damage,” Eminem told Vulture magazine.

“I was in this weird fog for months. Like, literally I wasn’t making sense; it had been so long since I’d done vocals without a ton of Valium and Vicodin. I almost had to relearn how to rap,” he added.
