EMINEM: 'I DON'T WANT TO BE HUGELY SUCCESSFUL'
Rap star EMINEM has no desire to repeat his early career success - because he has already has achieved all of his goals.
EMINEM
The Stan hitmaker has enjoyed huge commercial success since releasing The Slim Shady LP in 1999 - and his fame reached stellar levels, with his troubled personal life dominating headlines.
But now Eminem just wants to be known for his hits, admitting he feels "pretty good about what I've done."
He tells the BBC, "There's no desire to be that big again. Whatever happens, I'll take it, but that's definitely not what I'll be recording the songs for.
"I've accomplished enough with the music that I haven't had to go out there and do other things to over-saturate. That's probably what I take pride in most. But, at the end of the day, it's kind of catch 22. I love the attention but I don't like too much of it."
