    For Eminem to end up in the place he was in and come back and be as successful as he has been since 2009 is f---ing incredible. Deserves all the props for getting sober and staying there.

    :what22: not praising some loser for taking 30 years to figure out the concept of moderation is pathetic?

    8 years of sobriety is definitely an accomplishment. I personally gave up drugs six years ago but I don't know if I can ever go full on sober and give up drinking too because let's face it, that's how adults socialize. What pisses me off is when somebody gets on facebook saying "by the grace of God and through hard work I'm now 30 days clean" and everybody praises and congratulates them and they get 100 likes. To me that's no accomplishment. I go 30 days sober all the time just because I'm busy and don't have time to party. Lol. I'd say anything short of 90 days isn't even worth mentioning.

    the hardest ive done is crack once and while it only lasted 5-10 mins the high it gave was the best high ever. 100x better than weed high

    Relapse, Refill, Recovery, h---: The Sequel and MMLP2

    A superb output since getting sober. Still rapping circles around the competition in the twilight of his career.

    What a guy.

    Lmao! So is crack high similar to a weed high? Never did it before. I did coke once and it was like an all night bender. Did it for hours. Then I felt like I was having a heart attack and got scared and never touched that s--- again. Cool high at the beginning though. Made me feel very horny and powerful lol. Honestly the best buzz I've ever felt was Adderall. Unlimited focus and energy and basically put me in the best mood of my life.

    it hits you the second u inhale. which is why crackheads hold it in their lungs for as long as they can, to try and keep the high. @Arch Dogg it doesnt exactly feel like weed but weed is the best kind of high.except crack exagerrates that high by hundred a times. probably why its so dangerous, and obviously why its so addictive. but like i said it only lasts like 10 minutes (compared to weed which can last hours) and leaves u wanting it again and again.

    So everyone you know makes s--- out of people? Interesting. Also you sound ignorant and confused, see most people don't buy things they deem as s---. If memory serves each of Ems post hiatus albums sold mold than J Cole has his whole career. Just because you or someone you know doesn't like his music certainly doesn't make it s---. Now, has it been what it used to be? Of course not.. But if you think, say, an album like recovery is "s---" you're probably being ignorant and close mindedly biased. People like you are three times worse than people who blindly defend Eminem by the way.. It's a joke. Also Medicine Man is a better verse than anything cole has put out in a while.. And I love J Cole. Just wish he sounded more like he did in the mixtape days. Lil Ghetto is one of the coldest songs written to date.. AND self produced. That's unreal!

    I'm done having this convo. Em was great back in the day, but critics and myself agree his music has been bad the past several years, so I made a joke about how his 8 years of sobriety, was more like 8 years of s--- music. I don't think it's completely horrible or the worst thing I've ever heard or anything like that, it was a just a joke.

    And I'm still annoyed by/why J Cole was brought into the conversation lol. I don't care if people think his music is worse than Eminem's.

    Lil Ghetto n----- is a dope f---in song tho... Gonna go listen to it now, it's been a minute.

    You're welcome for reminding :) lol. But legit no critics say his music is bad.. In fact his meta critic ratings are very similar to his early albums. But again, it's not s--- music by any stretch. It's just not the same em we used to get. Did Mike drop 35 a night for the Wizards? h--- no.. Was he trash? h--- no. See where I'm taking this

    Sobriety is elusive but once you got it I guess it's good even if he fell off wagon he's not gonna advertise it he's invested to much plus there's no reason but I bet he use to be fun to get on one with
