Well going by the evidence up top, he looks like a crazy white boy to us. Besides all that, Vibe has a good interview with him where he talks about the death of Proof and how he had to become a cluck to make his music stand out again:

In “Can I Kick It?” Eminem opens up to VIBE readers, sharing honest, shocking and insightful details about mourning the death of his best friend, Proof, his near fatal drug overdose and numerous attempts to detox. In the tragic, yet hopeful, first-person story, Eminem addresses the rumors swirling around him writing, “It’s no secret I had a drug problem. If I was to give you a number of Vicodin I would actually take in a day? Anywhere between 10 to 20. Valium, Ambien, the numbers got so high I don’t even know what I was taking.”

After his first stint in rehab, Eminem relapsed and nearly died from an overdose after ingesting unidentified blue pills an acquaintance had given him. “My doctor told me those mysterious new pills were methadone, which is used to wean heroin addicts off dope. Had I known it was methadone, I probably wouldn’t have taken it. But as bad as I was back then, I can’t even say 100 percent for sure. My doctor told me the amount of methadone I’d taken was equivalent to shooting up four bags of heroin. Even when they told me I almost died, it didn’t click.” After detoxing, Eminem suffered a knee injury that required surgery, but because of his recent drug abuse, he was not prescribed painkillers. He recalls, “I started looking around my house to see if I had a stash box of Vicodin…I’m ransacking my house, finally find something in the basement, in a little napkin, seven and a half Vicodin—the big extra strength ones—and a few Valium.” The rapper soon relapsed for the second time and finally admitted to himself he was an addict. “It never once hit me that drug addiction runs in my family. Now that I understand that I’m an addict, I definitely have compassion for my mother. I get it.”

Wow, he threw his moms into it. But wait, your moms fed you poison. We still don’t get that…
