The rapper is now clean and healthy while promoting new album Recovery saying he “feels better than ever.”
But Em admits he had a serious problem. The Detroit rapper said: “Not to make this moment intense, but I almost died. I was a couple of hours away from death, I overdosed and almost died.”
In a separate interview the star said: “It took me a while to actually admit that I had a problem.
“In the hip-hop world that I live in, it can be mistaken for weakness and the last thing you want to do in hip-hop is admit that you're weak.”
Recovery is released this coming Monday and features collaborations with Rihanna, Lil Wayne and Pink.
Eminem had originally planned to release a sequel to his comeback record Relapse this year but scrapped the idea.
