Aerosmith frontman is worried that it might suffer the same fate as Prince because some time ago he was addicted to certain drugs, such as Prince was addicted to Percocet. Steven Tyler admits that for a very long time he consumed the banned substances, but managed to fight and get rid of them until, after an accident in which he fractured a leg, Tyler woke up that is dependent on medication. Steven Tyler believes that doctors are new suppliers of drugs.
"You know, I am very aware of taking too much of something. It got me in rehab many, many times. As a recovering drug addict and alcoholic, I get that. In the '80s, I fell to my knees with my addictions.
Doctors are the new pushers. All of America isn't strung out on street drugs, they're strung out on prescribed drugs.
I'm hoping whoever brought him [Prince] to the hospital that night will have something to say... I hope it's not drugs. But if it is, this didn't have to happen... I was fortunate enough to have someone who said, 'You're going to Betty Ford [rehab clinic], again.", a declarat Steven Tyler pentru revista People
Intr-un interviu pentru revista DuJour Tyler a declarat: "I think Prince died so I could live. I think we both have the same disease. Today I'm sober and alive. Will I be dead tomorrow? I don't know."
