Elton John helping Eminem to fight drug problems

London: Veteran musician Elton John says he has been helping rapper Eminem fight drug problems for more than a year.

John added that Eminem is succeeding in his well-publicised battle against substance abuse. John told a radio channel that as a recovered drug abuser he is happy to help people if they want the assistance but drugs make people so cocky and arrogant that they often reject help. Eminem has written about his substance abuse problems in the past. PTI
