VH1’s Behind The Music has rolled out another bombshell following Nicole Scherzinger‘s revelation that she struggled with bulimia. On the forthcoming episode (airing October 14) time, Gym Class Heroes frontman Travie McCoy talks about the moment he made the decision to kick his drug habit.

After four failed stints in rehab and his 2009 breakup with Katy Perry, the rapper took a look in the mirror and saw that his “face was sunken in” and realized, “If I didn’t do something, I was gonna end up dead.” So the next morning, with his friends around him, McCoy decided to quit cold turkey. Watch the rapper tear up in the preview clip up top.
