EminemĀ looked back through painful family memories in his latest music video for his single Somebody Save Me.
The song, which was featured on his twelfth studio LP The Death Of Slim Shady (Coup De GrĆ¢ce), featured the 51-year-old rapper ā born Marshall Mathers III ā reminiscing about the family milestones in the lives of his brother and his three children that he regretted missing.
In the heartbreaking video, which was released on Wednesday, Eminem makes the theme even more literal by watching home movies of his children Hailie Jade, Alaina and Stevie, as well as his brother Nate, while the rapper-turned-country superstar Jelly Roll returned to join him for the shoot.
Eminem ā who was recentlyĀ mistaken for an Olympic archerĀ ā shares Hailie Jade, 28, with his ex-wife Kim Scott.
The former couple later adopted Alaina, 31, in the early 2000s. She was the daughter of Kim’s sister, who had been struggling with drug abuse at the time, and she laterĀ died in 2016 of a suspected heroin overdose.

The song featured rapper-turned-country star Jelly Roll singing, and the hitmaker returned to be featured in the video, which was released on Wednesday
In between Kim’s two marriages to Eminem ā whom she was wed to from 1999ā2001 and in part of 2006 ā she welcomed Stevie Laine Scott with her then-boyfriend Eric Harterr.
After Eminem and Kim reunited, he adopted Stevie in 2005. The rapper’s 22-year-old childĀ came out as nonbinaryĀ and genderfluid in 2021, and they clarified that they used all pronouns.
Eminem first appears in archival night-vision footage that shows him sleeping in bed as Hailie Jade comes into the bedroom and tries to wake him up for breakfast.
The dazed rapper replies that he’s too tired and tries to go back to sleep as his clearly annoyed daughter shouts again to get him to wake up.
The somber tone of Jelly Roll’s refrain indicates that Eminem likely wishes he had spent that time with his daughter instead of sleeping off whatever he was up to the night before.
In the present day, the hitmaker has traded in his short platinum-dyed hair for a darker shade with a matching beard.
He raps on a darkened set featuring three walls of a dingy, bare room reminiscent of the disturbing set toĀ David Lynch’s Rabbits.
Home movies with Eminem’s children are projected on the bare, stained wall of the empty room as he watches from just outside the set.

Then he rapped about regretting missing the graduation and other milestones of his adopted daughter Alaina, who is the biological daughter of his ex-wife Kim Scott’s late sister
All three of his children are represented in archival footage.
‘Hailey, I’m so sorry I wasn’t there for your first guitar recital,’ he raps as she’s shown playing a pink acoustic guitar as a teen.
He also shares his regrets about not walking her ‘down the aisle’ when she got married and missing the birth of her first child.
The rapper, who has been sober since 2008,Ā apologizes to her: ‘Sorry I chose drugs and put them above you.’
When it comes to Alaina, among his regrets is that he missed her school graduation.
But he also apologizes for letting her see him at the depth of his addiction.
‘Sorry that you had to hear me fall in the bathroom,’ he raps, as a figure dressed like the old-school Slim Shady reenacts the seemingly drug-fueled event by keeling over in the bathroom with a cartoonish ‘oomph’ sound.
His younger brotherĀ Nathan “Nate” Kane Samara is featured in what looked like home movies from Christmas years earlier, as Eminem raps about his regrets for leaving Nate in foster care, though he later adopted his half-brother.
He also raps about wishing he could have hugged Nate’s children while they were still young.

As Jelly Roll sings the refrain, smoke begins to fill the room where the Slim Shady stand-in is sleeping
‘Stevie, I’m sorry I missed you,’ Eminem continues, and he bemoans failing to ‘be the dad I wanted to be to you.’
As he continues watching footage of his children, Jelly Roll again sings the refrain as a figure who looks like a younger slim shady lies down in bed with his back to the camera.
The room, which is now encased in glass, begins to fill up with smoke as the country singer belts out the tune.
To underscore Eminem’s regrets and reinvigorated connection to his children, he ends the Somebody Save Me video by letting a longer section of the video of Hailey’s guitar recital play even after the music has faded out.
