While curating a calm playlist for Apple Music, Capaldi shared that his real go-to for winding down is classic Eminem.
Lewis Capaldi has revealed his go-to bedtime soundtrack, and it is not what you would expect. While talking to Apple Music about soothing songs and wellness routines, the Scottish singer confessed that old-school Eminem helps him drift off to sleep.
“If I’m going to fall asleep, especially on a plane, I put on Eminem because I feel like it really puts me at ease”, Lewis said. “I listen to a lot of the older stuff like “The Marshall Mathers LP” and “The Eminem Show” — for some reason it lulls me into a delightful little sleep”.
Capaldi’s curated playlist for Apple’s new “Music That Soothes Me” series features mellow tracks from artists like Olivia Dean and Noah Kahan. But Em’s music did not make the cut. Lewis kept that pick to himself, not being ready to impose his personal choice on the general public.
Whether it’s ambient rain, green noise, or the raw intensity of early Eminem, Capaldi’s mix of self-care techniques seems to be working. And hey, if “Kill You” helps you sleep, more power to you.
