Eminem dropped the music video to 'Temporary' and the video 'broke' fans 'more than simply listening to the OG song'.
Eminem - real name Marshall Bruce Mathers II - released his latest album The Death of Slim Shady (Coup De Grâce) earlier this year and has been slowly releasing music videos for certain singles.
The video for 'Temporary' has got fans of the rapper reaching for the tissues.

Eminem shared the music video to 'Temporary' in a post to YouTube earlier today (October 3) - the song dedicated to daughter Hailie as a song for her to listen to when the rapper eventually passes away one day.
Em can be heard rapping: "A lot of people ask me, am I afraid of death? The truth is, I think what scares me the 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."
The video features a compilation of shots, made up of photographs of Eminem and daughter, alongside footage of the pair from when she was growing up.
There's even a shot of a card Hailie wrote Eminem, saying: "I got this card a few years ago and held onto it and now feels like the perfect time to give it to you.
"Thank you for every thing you do and always being there for all of us girls. You truly are the best dad in the world. Love you forever and 100 million dollars forever ever and always. Bean."
'Temporary' goes on to show videos from Hailie's wedding day and the rapper seeing her in her dress and breaking down in tears, alongside him walking her down the aisle and them dancing together.
Oh, and it's quite hard to miss the clip of Hailie revealing to the Real Slim Shady that he's about to become a grandpa too.
And it's not taken long for fans to flood to the post to weigh in.
One YouTube user said: "Musicians making tribute songs for their children is one of the purest things on earth, man love this so much."
A second commented: "The hardest rapper alive is crying. I am crying right now."
"The exact moment when I started crying 00:01," a third said.
A fourth wrote: "Eminem really putting me through every damn emotion. This video broke me more than simply listening to the OG song. I didn't think that was possible."
And a final resolved: "Btw this is not just a music video, this is a story. video of the year fr tho."
