“I felt so bad about myself and the music that I was creating, that I felt like I started to turn into a hater,” Eminem said during a recent interview with Los Angeles radio station Power 106. “And it wasn’t just—you know, singling Kanye [West] and [Lil] Wayne out at that time period. I mean they were the ones who were the killing it the most to me. And it hurt. I’d pop the CD in and be like, ‘Fuck man, I’m not doing this no more.’ I felt like I came very close to like, for me it would have been career suicide because I felt like, ‘I should make a song just dissing everybody who’s doing in it the game right now.'”
“Talkin’ 2 Myself” features the following lyrics.
I almost made a song dissing Lil Wayne
It’s like I was jealous of him ’cause of the attention he was gettin’
I felt horrible about myself, he was spittin’
And I wasn’t, anyone who was buzzin’ back then could’a got it
Almost went at Kanye too, God it
Feels like I’m going psychotic, thank God that I didn’t do it
I’da had my ass handed to me and I knew it
