Eminem and Hailie Jade in 1999Eminem's new music video will surely tug at the heartstrings.
On Thursday, Oct. 3, the rapper released a heartfelt music video for his song "Temporary," which is dedicated to his now 28-year-old daughter Hailie Jade Scott.
The five-minute music video features old photos and footage of Hailie Jade — whom he welcomed with ex Kim Scott at age 23 in 1995 — growing up. In the end, she reveals to Eminem that she's pregnant.
In "Temporary," Eminem, 51, says that his biggest fear is "not being able to say all the things I wanna say to you when I'm no longer here" — so he does just that.
The song, which features vocals by Skylar Grey, was included in Eminem's latest studio albumThe Death of Slim Shady (Coup de Grâce).
Between the sweet moments as a young girl to the emotional exchanges on her wedding day, here's all the never-before-seen moments in the "Temporary" music video.
