Now comes a new socially significant video from Maryland rapper Logic. The name of the song is “1-800-273-8255” — the number for the National Suicide Prevention Lifeline. The song is enjoying serious radio play and is currently No. 6 on the Billboard Hot 100.
With all the fame and fortune comes great instability and hardship as with many who live in the world of celebrity. Until he got sober in 2008, Eminem had a problem with prescription drugs – particularly Vicodin, Valium, and Ambien. According to an interview with Rolling Stone, the pill-popping was intense. “In a day I could consume anywhere from 40 to 60 Valium. And Vicodin… maybe 20, 30? I don’t know. I was taking a lot of shit.”
