There is a lot of usage within the Slaughterhouse camp. Publicly, the world watched Joe Budden overcome his addiction on “Love & Hip Hop” on VH1. While his case was not as severe, Joell Ortiz had issues with smoking and drinking. Like his group-mate, Joell Ortiz is trying to overcome.

Because of the Slaughterhouse run last summer, Joell Ortiz is firmly back in the spotlight and has a new solo project in the works. Seeing how well Joe Budden did when he returned to his solo career, Joell Ortiz has a new mixtape in the works. Joell Ortiz’ next mixtape is called Yaowa.
