American rapper Eminem may now be embracing his "grandpa" era, as his latest music video, Temporary, which was released on October 3, 2024, saw his daughter, Hailie Jade Mathers, subtly reveal her pregnancy. The 28-year-old shared ultrasound photos on Instagram shortly after the video premiered, fueling excitement among fans.

In the music video, dedicated to Hailie, she gifts Eminem a Detroit Lions jersey with "Grandpa" written on the back, confirming that the rapper is about to become a grandfather.

Hailie and Evan McClintock married earlier this year at a modest ceremony in Battle Creek, Michigan. The intimate wedding, held at Greencrest Manor, was attended by close friends and family.

Hailie Jade, who tied the knot with McClintock earlier this year, further shared the pregnancy news by posting ultrasound images of the baby on her Instagram account just hours after the video went live. The post featured a heartfelt caption, "Can’t wait to meet you soon," which confirmed the pregnancy rumors for fans.

The ultrasound photos instantly attracted the attention of her 3 million followers, who flooded the comments with well-wishes for the expectant parents, and grandparent, Eminem.

McClintock and Hailie Jade first met while attending Michigan State University, and they got engaged in February 2023 after several years of dating. The pair exchanged vows in an intimate ceremony at Greencrest Manor, Michigan, surrounded by close friends and family, including Eminem.

Eminem’s song Temporary, featuring Skylar Grey, is part of his latest album The Death of Slim Shady (Coup de Grâce), which was released this year in July. The song is an emotional tribute to Hailie and the music video takes viewers down memory lane, showcasing old home videos of Eminem and Hailie Jade from the 1990s and early 2000s.

Temporary is just one of the many tracks from The Death of Slim Shady that dives into Eminem’s personal experiences. The song highlights his 'regrets' over missed time with his daughter due to his struggles with addiction. Earlier this year, the rapper celebrated 16 years of sobriety, and the lyrics in Temporary are his reflections on fatherhood and the passage of time.

In her Just a Little Shady podcast, Hailie Jade recently revealed how the song brought her to tears, saying,

"I audibly sobbed… for both songs, but especially 'Temporary.'"

She expressed gratitude for her parents' efforts in shielding her from the full extent of Eminem's struggles during her childhood.

Aside from the emotional Temporary video, Eminem's recent album, The Death of Slim Shady, has been a commercial success. The album peaked at No. 1 on the Billboard 200, marking his 11th chart-topping album. The lead single, Houdini, reached No. 2 on the Billboard Hot 100, and other tracks, including Somebody Save Me, also charted high.

Eminem has been actively promoting the album with multiple music video releases, including collaborations with artists like Jelly Roll and Big Sean.
