25 years is a long time to be in the game. And to start as a teenager in the music industry, and to have a career that spans over two decades, you’re bound to mature, and reflect.<\/p>\n
Papa Roach<\/a><\/strong>‘s frontman Jacoby Shaddix<\/strong> did some reflection of his own during an interview with X107.5 Las Vegas<\/em>‘ Carlota<\/strong>, “I’m so a million miles from that person.”<\/p>\n Particularly focusing on the period after the band’s hit single, “Last Resort” was released in 2000, Shaddix<\/strong> explained that he “always cared about people,” but that he was “young and reckless.” And in his recklessness, he had to have “a certain amount of\u2026 narcissism, in a way, to be able to do this thing.”<\/p>\n As one grows older, hindsight becomes clearer, and so Shaddix<\/strong> was able to elaborate “there are threads and a common bond,” between who he is now and who he was then; he’s still compassionate, but he’s not quite as reckless \u2013\u00a0especially after Ozzy<\/strong> Osbourne<\/strong><\/a>‘s wife Sharon<\/strong> Osbourne<\/strong><\/a> ripped him an absolute new <\/em>one in 2001.<\/p>\n After trashing Ozzfest in 2001, Shaddix<\/strong> had a much “needed” wake-up call from Sharon<\/strong> \u2013 “I needed to be rattled at that point because it’s, like I could have totally gotten in a lot of trouble \u2013\u00a0a lot worse trouble than I had gotten in at the time. And I learned my lessons, and they were valuable lessons.” Fans had destroyed the venue during an onstage riot during the festival with Slipknot<\/strong> and Ozzy<\/strong> still due to play after Papa Roach<\/strong>‘s set, so Sharon<\/strong> let loose \u2013 “I had this verbal assassination from Mrs. Osbourne<\/strong>. Don’t fuck with Sharon<\/strong>.”<\/p>\n Through some well-deserved scolding, and a bit of maturity, Papa<\/strong> Roach<\/strong>‘s Jacoby<\/strong> Shaddix<\/strong> really has come a long way over the last 25 years. He even celebrated his 13th year free from alcohol earlier this year.<\/p>\n With a few remaining live dates in the US, you can catch Papa<\/strong> Roach<\/strong> on the road over the next few days. They will also be embarking on another North American tour later this year.
