There are no pills, nor zany references to the celebutante of the day. The haze of any drug-induced streams of consciousness have become a mere afterthought as well. Glorifying the splendor of substance abuse and all of its thrills have also been scrapped from the itinerary. For Eminem is an addict and since he accomplished the first step to getting clean by penning the details in his last album, his walk to self redemption begins here.
The album covers of Recovery send a clear message. Though out of the fog, notice how partly cloudy skies still pollute the air, as if to indicate the battle is far from over. But he’s weathering the storm — alone — just as every recovering patient has to.
We expect great things Marshall Mathers. Great things.
