In contrast to his public image, Rose was not a heavy drug user, though he did not disavow the use of illicit substances entirely. Rose intentionally overdosed on painkillers in 1986 due to stress, stating “I couldn’t take it. And I just grabbed the bottle of pills in an argument and just gulped them down and I ended up in the hospital.” Rose’s experience at the hospital inspired the lyrics to the Guns N’ Roses song “Coma”.

In July 1987, Guns N’ Roses released their debut album Appetite for Destruction. Although the record received critical acclaim, it experienced a modest commercial start, selling as many as 500,000 copies in its first year of release.

In November 1988, Guns N’ Roses released the stopgap album G N’ R Lies, which sold more than five million copies in the U.S. alone. The band – and Rose in particular – were accused of promoting racist and homophobic attitudes with the song “One in a Million”, in which Rose warns “niggers” to “get out of my way” and complains about “faggots” who “spread some fucking disease”. During the controversy, Rose defended his use of the racial slur by claiming, “it’s a word to describe somebody that is basically a pain in your life, a problem. The word nigger doesn’t necessarily mean black.” In 1992, however, he conceded that the song reflected his initial and impressionable perspective when he first arrived in Los Angeles in his late teens, where he experienced culture shock to a lifestyle very much different from the conservative town he grew up in. Rose stated “I was pissed off about some black people [who] were trying to rob me. I wanted to insult those particular black people. I didn’t want to support racism.” In response to the allegations of homophobia, Rose said he considered himself “pro-heterosexual” but is “not against [homosexuals] doing what they want to do as long as it’s not hurting anybody else and they’re not forcing it upon [him]”. He blamed this attitude on “bad experiences” with gay men, citing an attempted rape in his late teens and the alleged molestation by his biological father. The controversy led to Guns N’ Roses being dropped from the roster of an AIDS benefit show in New York organized by the Gay Men’s Health Crisis.

Shortly after his arrival in Los Angeles, Rose met guitarist Kevin Lawrence outside The Troubadour in West Hollywood and joined his band Rapidfire. They recorded a five-song demo in May 1983, which, after years of legal action, was released as an EP, Ready to Rumble, in 2014. After parting ways with Lawrence, he formed the band Hollywood Rose with his childhood friend Izzy Stradlin, who had moved to Los Angeles in 1980, and 16-year-old guitarist Chris Weber. In January 1984, the band recorded a five-song demo featuring the tracks “Anything Goes”, “Rocker”, “Shadow of Your Love”, and “Reckless Life”, which was released in 2004 as The Roots of Guns N’ Roses. Guitarist Slash and drummer Steven Adler, future members of Guns N’ Roses, joined Hollywood Rose before the band’s dissolution. Rose then joined L.A. Guns. While struggling to make an impact on the Hollywood music scene, Rose held down a variety of jobs, including the position of night manager at the Tower Records location on Sunset Boulevard. Rose and Stradlin also smoked cigarettes for a scientific study at UCLA for the reported wages of $8 per hour (equivalent to $20 in 2019).

During the band’s performance at the Monsters of Rock festival in Castle Donington, England, in August 1988, two fans were crushed to death when many in the crowd of 107,000 began slam-dancing to “It’s So Easy”. Rose had halted the show several times to calm the audience. From then on, he became known for personally addressing disruptive fans and giving instructions to security personnel from the stage, at times stopping concerts to deal with issues in the crowd. In 1992, Rose stated, “Most performers would go to a security person in their organization, and it would just be done very quietly. I’ll confront the person, stop the song: ‘Guess what: You wasted your money, you get to leave.'” As a result of the deaths at Monsters of Rock, the festival was canceled the following year.
