Hailie is a big part of Eminem’s work but she struggles with some of it

Eminem might have a long list of iconic tracks and videos to his name, but his daughter refuses to watch one of them ever again.

Hailie Jade has been the subject of much of the rapper’s work over the years, with one of the latest songs sending her a heartbreaking message in the event of his death.

The music video for ‘Temporary’ dropped last night (3 October), featuring moments of Hailie’s life, including Eminem crying on her wedding day.

But while this new release might be pretty sweet – there’s even the news of the rapper becoming a granddad – the ‘Somebody Save Me’ video was too much for Hailie.

On her Just a Little Shady podcast, the 28-year-old said: “Speaking of things I watched this past week, which I guess I’ll say watched, but I refused to watch again — the ‘Somebody Save Me’ music video is out and I did watch the thing.”

The emotional clip shows footage of her as a child while her dad apologises for not being there for her when she was little. He blames substance and alcohol abuse for missing out on her growing up.

“Another pill as I start to spiral / Message to my daughters / I don’t even deserve the father title / Hailie, I’m so sorry / I know I wasn’t there for your first guitar recital,” Eminem raps.

“Didn’t walk you down the aisle / Missed the birth of your first child / Your first podcast, lookin’ down, sweetie.”

Hailie did also open up about ‘Temporary’ following its release on the new The Death Of Slim Shady (Coup De Grâce) album back in July.

On the verge of tears, she said it made her realise ‘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,” she said. “I will say if you’ve ever lost an addict or loved one, I feel for you.”

During the track, the father-of-three attempts to put her at ease, telling her that life is going to be difficult, but ok, after he dies.

At the beginning of the song, we hear an old recording of a conversation between the pair, when she was a kid.

The intro goes: “A lot of people ask me, am I afraid of death? The truth is, I think what scares the me most is not being able to say all the things.

“I wanna say to you when I’m no longer here. So this song is for Hailie, for when that day comes. Where is Hailie? Where is she at? This ain’t Hailie. Who is it?

“It’s a monster.”

In the song, he then raps: “Look after Eleana, Stevie and Uncle Nate / And, sweetie, be strong; I know I was your rock, and I still am / Saying goodbye is just not ever easy / Why you crying? Just stop / Hailie, baby, dry your eyes, this is not forever.”
