In addition to being one of the most beloved and relevant rappers in the world even now, at the age of 51, Eminem ticked off a great personal success the other day. The artist celebrated 16 years since he was “clean”, that is, since he no longer found refuge in alcohol or other substances.
Eminem posted a picture on Instagram of himself holding a 16 coin in his palm, a symbol of his 16 years of staying away from the things that caused him trouble in the past. He left no description next to the image, but everyone figured out what it was about and the supportive comments poured in. “We are all so proud of you”; “Best post in a while”; “I’m happy for you, keep inspiring us!”, his admirers wrote. And a message from his younger brother, Nathan, slipped through. He told him that he was his best mentor and best influence.

Eminem, whose real name is Marshall Mathers, spoke some time ago about substance abuse and how he was addicted to alcohol, drugs or pain pills.
“My addiction took shape at the beginning of that first album. I didn’t do anything ‘hard’ until I became famous. I was experimenting. I didn’t have a favorite drug. But when I went on tour and people would give you drugs for free… I managed to abstain for a short time, then I liked it too much and I didn’t know how to stop”he wrote in a personal essay in the publication XXL in 2022.
