In the upcoming January slash February issue of Complex Magazine, Eminem sat down to talk about his comeback album, his drug problem, streaming porn and next years “Relapse 2″ album. When asked if he saw any similarities when he heard of Michael Jackson’s death… Eminem replied “Oh, 100 percent. When you read things about Michael Jackson it’s hard to decipher what the fuck is true, but there’s the story of how he woke up at whatever time and he needed something to go back to sleep because he had this or that and it didn’t work.”Eminem continued “That’s exactly what used to happen to me: I would take a couple of pills and I would be up an hour later and I’d want more. Then I’d take more and that would be enough to maybe get me back to sleep for two more hours. Then I’d be wide awake again. So I definitely can relate, and it’s a shame if he didn’t have anybody there to just say, “Michael, you’re an addict, you need help.” It’s one of the pitfalls of fame. I could just say, “Yo, I need this and this and this,” and they’re going to give me whatever I want because— (because you’re Eminem) Exactly, it’s messed up. The worst thing that could have happened to me as an addict was having money.
