Respect for owning his addiction and not avoiding the questions.
great point.
Agreed
None are w/o sin!!
Totally agree
I don't give a damn, Creed is awesome.
I am with you on that! Saw them/him solo many times and always a great show where SS sounds great! People should like what they like, be true to themselves and not be friggin' music or any other kind of lemming!
I’m not a fan but I think people should like what they like. I like some bizarre stuff that others hate
@@joefoley1079 OOIOO....check them out.
@@tinak3633 Hell yeah! I am with you.
I hate when people make fun of them, I love their style.
His band catches a lot of shit but he seems like a very kind and genuine person. THIS is what not listening to the haters looks like, folks. Much respect for this man.
Totally. Scott seems like a really cool person.
This is what it looks like when hes not all drugged out and drunk also,that is what his problem was for all you youngsters who truly dont know Scott stapp,but for those who are extremely young and think they do and dont know
Back then he was a douche bag, the fame, drugs, and alcohol played a big part in the band's downfall.
Creed gets a lot of unwarranted hate. Scott's lyrics come from the heart, and Mark Tremonti is one of the greatest guitarists of the 90's.
No one wants truth!
There is a whole generation of rock music that people just don't like. The late 90s to early 2000's is that generation. People love ripping on Creed, Nickleback and Limp Bizkit. Though also millenials love listening to music ironically and there has been a recent resurgence for Limp Bizkit. I know several people who went and saw Limp Bizkit recently when they toured with Scowl and some who went to go see Limp Bizkit to actually see Limp Bizkit, which is mind blowing. Creed and Nickleback may have their heyday again but they're no Limp Bizkit. Like you can meme both Creed and Nickleback but they're not so laughable that you'd actually go and see it for yourself. They're way too serious, whereas Limp Bizkit just isn't. Though you never know, maybe after further hindsight, people may start looking at Creed differently. They play on the classic rock station and as young people who didn't experience Creed first hand will not associate them with a certain "nostalgia" those that did experience them first hand, they may appreciate Creed differently and possibly enjoy it.
It's a bunch of hipster BS ... People think hating extremely popular things makes them different or edgy ... Look at any really successful band and your gonna find a large crowd of people who say they hate that band and they'll always have some stupid reason to back their opinion like dude Metallica has sold some unreal number of records you thinking their assholes really doesn't change the obvious fact that their pretty good at what they do
@@joshuataylor8294 Agreed. Despite constantly bashing on them, those three bands have held up incredibly well. Limp Bizkit just headlined Lollapalooza, 20 years after their initial peak, and Wes Borland & Mark Tremonti are both hailed as two of the best modern rock guitarists. Creed and Nickelback are both very popular among Christian rock circles. Those bands have been the butt of rock jokes for so long, but they've prevailed.
Every Creed album was consistently worse than the last. My Own Prison is a legit masterpiece. Human Clay was ok, but it wasn't anywhere near the quality of MOP. The third album was called Weathered, and that was a perfect title because that's exactly what the band had become. Alter Bridge, on the other hand, is a fantastic band
He's so honest about he's addictions. Doesn't blame anyone but himself. Must be an amazing feeling.
everybody hates creed but they sold 30 million albums . somebody liked them
Hunt マイク what bro we went from creed to hitler tf
soundbreak7 70 million
Christian morons like them
Two words: Justin Bieber
This is known as the nickelback defence.
my own prison was and still is a kick ass album
fuck yeah.
hell yeah dude
wade hunt One is an amzing song. Whats this Life For was always my favorite growing up
Agreed
Human clay is better
Hate Creed all you want, but I don't know how any metal fan can't at least appreciate Mark Tremonti's guitar work.
Tremonti had the cleanest and the most accurate guitar tones and riffs. The guy stands above all in hard rock. Much respect and love to Creed.
His guitar tones tho… hot damn
Deathcore vocalist here and I agree 100 percent
It's so good to see Scott so incredibly coherent!
+Billy Rouse he looks way younger than that crazed hotel video he did. Glad he is bouncing back and hope it sticks.
Scott Stapp is one of the best live singers of all times.
Definitely not! He was drunk at so many performances.
Mark Tremonti is a legend! His riffs are some of the most challenging and enjoyable riffs I have ever learned. People tend to hate on huge success. I'm one of those people to a degree. But Creed dominated the 90s. They introduced rock to millions of soccer moms! Now people don't glare at me as much when I'm slamming Machine Head in my truck! Thanks Creed for helping us opressed metal-heads blend in to society!
I like how Scott is very softly spoken and deliberately chooses his answers.
Scott is a absolute Chad he is so imperfect and human unlike other people and he isn't afraid to admit that.
Much agreed
Damn. Not a lot of love for Creed in the comment section. Thumbs up if you love Creed!
dont know y there hated I mean idk a lot of the info y they r hated. there music is really good and they r too!
👍👍👍👍
Awesome band, great musicians, fantastic lyrics, easy to look at, what more can you ask for? Let them drink their Haterade
Yeah man. was them in concert in 2000. Couldn't stop crowd surfing. Was awesome.
I 💘 CREED
Their song "What If" was pretty much my stepping stone from rock guitar, into heavier rock, and eventually metal guitar as a child. Never could really hate them as a band, like everyone around me. Cool to learn a bit more after all these years.
U honor them nd the process. Much like i remember the songs that entered me into heavier metal .
LOVE the magic they had, their music enLightened my souL,,,❤
Always loved Creed and Scott Stapp! His solo albums are pretty awesome too. Not even gona lie about this. And I'm glad hes doing better.
Whether or not you like Creed or Scott it's nice to see this guy so clear headed. Unless you've been in some dark places like he has you don't understand how crazy it can get....sadly I know all too well....Congrats Scott, stay well my man

Yes I believe that Scott sounds great now. His voice is way better then when Creed was alive. He's healthy and so much more happy.
I’ve been in his shoes and for him to come out the other side is amazing . I too have come out of that dark place , if you have never been in that hell , you will never know what it’s like . Good for him 👍
I'm not big on Creed, but happy Scott is doing well.
Trevor Crowell if you're not a listener, get the fuck out
Azazel Raiden that's not a true fan reaction man. Not everyone has to like Creed, but a fan should understand it is a compliment for someone to recognize Scott's health is in good condition
Nobody is big on Creed.
@@alexdelarge703 I am big on Creed
@@Sirshipbuilder That’s a sad state of affairs, man
This guy is awesome. He's been through hell, but Scott's come a long way.
I always did like Creed, their music and lyrics are honest and deep. And much respect to Scott Stapp.
I grew up at the time when Creed were at the height of their popularity, and while it was always very far from being anything like the music I enjoy they always were and still are one of my biggest guilty pleasures. It's cool to see that Scott seems like a nice, down to earth guy these days.
Their first 2 albums are awesome rock/metal albums. Human Clay has a couple cringey tracks but that’s alright.
Scott when life gets tough remember how many peoples life's you have saved and affected and changed.. You are a warrior and awesome man
I just want to go on record by saying that if it wasn’t for creed, the world would not have alter bridge, Mark Tremonti’s solo band, Scott Phillips side gig, projected, art of anarchy, slash and Myles Kennedy, and Myles Kennedy’s year of the tiger album. Creed laid the foundation for some amazing music to come a decade later. Especially with alter bridge evolving into one of the premier progressive metal bands and tremonti becoming what I like to call one of the first “alternative thrash” bands. Be thankful for creed in the mid to late 90s!
Sean Rock finally a smart person in here. Like them or not Creed was a major influential band. For me and for countless outhers.
I agree in all except Myles. Slash was hounting him since earlies 2000s for velvet revolver so... Myles would get to the top anyway
I'm happy for Scott being sober and better. He seems very happy and chill here. But one can't lie that he was a great singer in his prime. Creed should low key make another album and collaborate with AB (Myles technically). I prefer AB, but Creed has a special place in my heart. They foreshadowed what Alter Bridge would become.
Awesome to see Scott doin great hopefully in the future we see a Creed reunion give a thumbs up if ya wanna see a reunion
creed was awesome
wish they`d come back
Only took a couple more years and you got your wish :D
I've always had a deep understanding and connection to his voice and lyrics since the beginning. Now I understand why. I've just rediscovered Scott after almost 15 years. I've never seen any interviews before. Seems like we've traveled the same roads in many ways from addiction to recovery. Ty Scott Stapp for not giving up and continued making inspiring life changing music. I'm 3 years clean as of January 22nd 💚💚.
This interviewer really digs deep! I think he could ask anything. Most interviewers can't.
Mad respect to Scott for doing such. I'm not a Creed fan but I respect him for all he has done as a vocalist
love or hate him, Scott’s overcoming weakness and fighting the fight so many of us share.
Creed was a big part of my life when they were big. They still are. Much love to Scott.
Tremonti had the cleanest and the most accurate tones and riffs
Through all the ups and downs of Scott Stapp, I still think he is an amazing person, and one of the best lyricists of all time. His lyrics have helped countless people, including me, through many of life's twists and turns.
I ran into Scott Stapp at a TSA checkpoint at an airport about a year ago. It was cool!
I've never understood the negativity towards Creed. I Really liked them. Great musicians with some great tunes.
Dude seems so cool when he's sober. Hopefully he stays that way.
I feel Creed is an amazingly talented band and I hope Scott Stapp keeps doing well. It would be great to hear more material!
I like a few creed songs and Scott seems like a great dude. I'm glad to see he is working on his mental health issues and substance abuse (I'm not sure if drugs or alcohol where an issue but being a rock star I'm sure they were.
Straightforward humble guy
I don't like creed but these haters who love to speak shit of the band are only children influenced by other children without own opinion.
+Me, Racha That literally makes zero sense.
You admit you don't like Creed, so why can't others ?
There is a huge difference between dislike and be a stupid hater.
+Me, Racha what the fuck are you talking about. lol fucking dipshit
+Vincent Medina shut your mouth little asian girl
+Gabriel *Or because they have ears and think the band sucks. There's also that.* I can't stand him or Creed, but I like this Wikipedia: Fact or Fiction series. That's why I'm here. Had I not seen your comment and thought it was so stupid, I wouldn't even have mentioned that I hate this wife beating horrible lyricist. But you brought it out of me. Congrats. (I can empathize with the mental illness, but I still think beyond that, he's not a good guy. And I admit I could be wrong. Something about him strikes me as bad or phony. Like the fact he's wearing a leather jacket, a winter scar, and a winter hat next to a guy in T-shirt *in a studio*. He just seems phony. Sorry.)
My first two concerts were creed with backstage passes. Scott was always so nice and polite and more than willing to converse
Never been a Creed fan, but he seems like the kind of guy I'd like sit down and have a good yarn with.
Respect to Scott for the candour.
Love it or hate it, Creed was the shit in the late 90's, early 2000's. I blasted Human Clay and Weathered when I was kid/teenager.
Agreed
Creed is just one of those bands where I turn them on and have immediate flashbacks to the good times in my childhood. There were so many bad times, but Creed pulls forward all the good times we had together. So much love for Creed.
Love Scott, just saw him 3 times in August 2018, just fantastic! Did all 3 meet and greets and he was so down to earth and likeable! Scott's still got it and his voice is amazing! I love Creed always but I'am a Scott Stapp fan for life! He has a new album come out early 2019, can't wait!
He was able to do this for you guys because his SCHEDULES WIDE OPPEENN.
+Aaron Kay Im a fan of creed and I laughed my ass off at this comment.
Wide Opuuuun*
lol
Lmao
😂
Its cool you were able to go back in time and get Young Robert De Niro to conduct this interview
I'm not the biggest Creed fan, I like My Own Prison, but if you listen closely to the songs you can tell Scott Stapp had issues. A lot of people back then took their songs as inspirational but I never did. Anyways it's nice to see the man doing better.
So humble and so honest..
Damn he sort of laid it all out here didn't he
I listened to Creed growing up and I still jump into their catalog.
Scott is a cool dude 💯👍
Creed is the band that made me want to learn how to play guitar back in '98 when I was 12. I will always love them.
I respect Scott Stapp so much because if it wasn't for him we wouldn't have had the glory that is Alter Bridge!!!
Very true
Why are they so many Creed haters here? Creed is one of my favorite bands :(
+Official Booyahguy thats something that scott brought onto himself
+Official Booyahguy LOLOOLOLOLOOLOLOL favorite band LOLOLOLOOLOLOOLOLOLOLOOLLLLLLoser
+Tappa Tappa you know I could call you a loser for liking whatever music you like, but I won't cuz everybody's free to listen to what they want without getting ridiculed. you should learn that
+Official Booyahguy LoL Creed ... it's your feminine side coming out
+Tappa Tappa im pretty certain if you go look at a crowd at a Creed concert it's pretty even between men and women..
Good for you Scott. The struggle is real. Been there and god bless for getting well.
I love creed and even if they are no longer together its great seeing Scott doing ok.
Loves you Creed! Loves you Scott! Dont let anyone dis who you are! I listen to your music all the time🌹🌹🌹edits but you can sing & sorry many attack you.. always forever fan here. You are good man! Understands opiate addiction yes but Your lyrics soo beautiful & you taught me much🌹
I honestly never understood why creed always got so much hate Scott Stapp is easily one of my biggest influences I love his voice and his lyrics and create is by far one of my favorite bands of all time
So happy that you create beautiful music
Same experience with lucid dreaming. I learned about it in applied psychology which was by invatation only. And the dream I was having I was able to change the reccuring dream of being lost and chased, to wear while dreaming I said to myself I am dreaming I can be up high with a perspective looking down and find my way. That is so cool someone else had the same experience. I wish nothing but the total best for Scott and his former band mates. Scott seems like a really good guy.
About one of the most real and serious one of these i have seen. Always loved Creed. Going to see AB in October.
I love Creed. I grew up listening to them thanks to my dad. I also love Scott's solo albums.
It's so nice to see him in this setting. He was so far gone.
I still love Creed n never got tired of their songs..
MASSIVE Creed fan, as well as Scott's solo albums and his album with Art of Anarchy!
Okay. I will never say best interview again. What a great episode!
Wow, that got deep. I wish him the best with his continued recovery.
You rock Scott!!!!
Creed is extremely underrated
Scott Scapp what a great guy and I love Creed and still listen to the music and want to see Creed on concert ❤️❤️👍👍👍👍👍
Creed is great! Always liked them and even their videos were amazing!
I am surprised he seemed to be so honest!
Happy to see ya doing great an truly humble..... Just one moment at a time...one day at a time.....! I know how hard it is an I am proud of you man...I didn't get to watch your show but I will try to find it. Kind been struggling with homelessness but thank goodness still sober. Anyway congrats on all your hard work stay positive with like minded ppl round you... Blessings an Love to you an yours. Donna

A D O R O.
E sua VOZ e suas canções me faz um bem enorme.
Im so happy for scottt
He is getting the chills..!!
I don't consider myself a loyal Creed fan but Human Clay I absolutely loved, it was just a great album. I liked the artwork so much I got a poster and ended up getting it signed by all 4 at a show in 00. Happy to see Scott doing so well.
🥀Great interview he's so free love ya Scott🥀☝️🥀
Good to see Scott didnt succumb to his addiction just like many rockers b4 him. Creed as well as Alter Bridge (yesssss I know Scott isnt in AB. I just needed to mention them) are some of the best rock bands ever!
He s a good man....one of my favorite vocalist of all time
I went to see Billy Idol in Winnipeg, didn’t know there was a opening act until I got there. Found out it was Scott Stapp, didn’t know he was the lead singer of Creed(had to Google him), Scott put on a fantastic show, as did Billy.
One of my favorite bands
Love Creed, Alter Bridge and Scott Stapp
Been listening to a lot of Creed again lately. I've loved Alter Bridge for ten years, but a My Own Prison 20th anniversary tour/release is a must!
Yes! Although we're now almost a month past the 20 year release date - that album was released on Aug 26th, 1997. Damn, time flies.
Too much Creed haters, knowing they have meaningful and powerful messages, Creed helped me out some through rough sitautions and reminding to myself who am I... do not know them in person but their songs are guarded and secure in heart and mind... It would of been great seeing them re-united agian...
I'm proud of Scott,he's living the dream,to escape the nightmares.Stay true to you Scott,that's all that matters in life.
He don't look like he's living any kind of dream if so what kind if shit ass fuckin dream is that
I swear that's the same jacket I seen him wear in concert at least 20 years ago
@@coffeepeachesplans well damn,it's a nice jacket I would wear it too,you don't have an old 20 or 30 year jacket?!
@@DudesIn101 I love the jacket old or new the point is what a shit dream I meant
@@DudesIn101 and if anything I would want my leather pants
Scott is really a nice person ❤️
I met Scott after a show and talked to him for a few minutes. He was really nice to us and took some pictures with me and my friend.
Wether you love them or not, it's good to see he kicked the drugs and got his life together. There's many we can't say the same for.
Always a fan, was a fan before they were big and still am a fan, they rock, have awesome lyrics...etc
The first album that Creed came out with was in time with what I was going thru. Faith works
Love you Scott, You insipre me in my sobriety even today!
Creed is still better than 99% of whats out there today! And it yielded Alter Bridge, who are indisputably phenomenal!
Hi Scott ❤️
It's good to see that he has straightened out his life.
I’ll always be a big creed fan
If liking Creed is wrong I don't wanna be right
Great interview!
Such a respectful interviewer.
