Kurupt disclosed that Eminem discreetly covered the expenses for his rehabilitation upon discovering the West Coast rapper’s struggle with alcohol addiction.
During an appearance on “Sway In The Morning” on August 3, Kurupt recounted his enduring battle with addiction, which involved experiencing multiple seizures and enduring a medically induced coma that lasted almost three weeks.
As he reminisced about those challenging times, Kurupt acknowledged Dr. Dre’s support in his recovery journey.
“It was Dr. Dre that called and was just giving his support and just let me know that, you know, we all go through these things,” he said.
“He was just giving me that game. And it was Em who came to the table like, ‘Kurupt my folks and I’m going to put some money into getting him into like, a rehab situation to where he can sit down and enjoy himself and be out the way. Nobody will know he’s there.'”
He added, “You know, these things cost bread. So Em put the cheese up for it and said, ‘Tell Kurupt I love him.’ Dr. Dre relayed the message and then he put me with Em’s folks. So, you know, that was real special to me. Appreciate both of them so much. And it’s like, damn. You know, he just came out the blue from nowhere. Like, ‘Okay, Kurupt going through that. Bam. Boom. I’ma do that for him, man. Tell Kurupt get well, we love him.’ That’s deep.”
Eminem has candidly shared his journey through addiction over the years. Following a near-fatal methadone overdose in 2007, the renowned Detroit rapper sought recovery and has maintained his sobriety since then, often celebrating these milestones on social media.
He has also expressed a desire to assist others dealing with similar challenges, making Kurupt’s story yet another testament to the discreet support he provides in the background.
