Someone get the Kleenex ready.

Get the tissues ready—Eminem is about to hit us right in the feels again.
The rapper is releasing the music video for his deeply emotional track “Temporary” on Oct. 3, and fans are already bracing themselves for a tearjerker.
In a post on Instagram on Oct. 2., the Detroit native shared a picture of his daughter, Hailie Jade, as a child, taken on the iconic stage of The Eminem Show. The image was handcrafted into a card by Hailie herself, and the post included a poignant quote from the song: “It won’t be too long…” followed by the tag “#Temporary.”
If that wasn’t enough to get fans tearing up, Em also dropped a sneak peek of the music video, which features never-before-seen Polaroids of him and Hailie over the years.
He then shared a snippet of the music “The tears are temporary,” he captioned the post, before revealing that the visuals for “Temporary” will drop tomorrow at 1 p.m. ET.
On the track from his latest album, The Death of Slim Shady, Eminem gets personal, lamenting the countless hours and days he missed due to his struggle with drugs and alcohol; Em celebrated 16 years of sobriety in April.
The 51-year-old rapper’s emotional tribute to his daughter has already struck a chord with fans. Hailie, now 28, recently opened up on her Just a Little Shady podcast about how the album’s songs, especially “Temporary” and “Somebody Save Me,” brought her to tears.
“I audibly sobbed… I think for both songs, but especially ‘Temporary.’” However, after watching the video and listening to the songs, Hailie praised her parents for “doing such a good job” when she was growing up to shield her from the reality of “how bad things were.”
“But now as an adult in hindsight, it’s so scary to think about and I think that’s why I get emotional… I will say if you’ve ever lost an addict or loved one, I feel for you,” she added.
“The older I get the less I can listen to any of the songs.”
For longtime fans, “Temporary” feels like a continuation of Eminem’s history of dedicating music to his daughter, like “Hailie’s Song” and “Mockingbird.” The tracks have always given a glimpse of the softer, more vulnerable side of Em—a stark contrast to his fiery diss tracks and rapid-fire rhymes. And with “Temporary,” it looks like we’re about to get another look into that emotional side of Slim.
The Death of Slim Shady has proven to be yet another success for Eminem. The album, released in July, peaked at No. 1 on the Billboard 200 and marked his 11th chart-topper.
The lead track, the rhythmically tight and razor-sharp “Houdini,” quickly soared to No. 2 on the Billboard Hot 100, while “Somebody Save Me,” a deeply personal collaboration with Jelly Roll, reached No. 27. “Brand New Dance” and “Tobey,” both climbed into the top 30, while “Temporary,” featuring vocals with longtime collaborator Skylar Grey, debuted at No. 56.
