Washington, Apr 16 : Eminem was so distressed after the murder of his best friend Proof in 2006 that he further got into drug-induced depression and self-loathing.
Rapper-cum-producer Proof, real name DeShaun Holton, was shot dead at the age of 32 years in his native Detroit, Michigan, after a heated argument over a game of pool went awry.
Since then, the ‘Without Me’ hitmaker, real name Marshall Mathers III, has been struggling to deal with the sudden loss of his pal and D12 bandmate.
