Skylar Grey reacts to fan’s tattoo of Eminem’s “Temporary” song

Last month, Eminem released his chart-topping, 12th solo studio album, The Death of Slim Shady (Coup de Grâce), which includes a song “Temporary,” featuring Skylar Grey, produced by Skylar Grey and Eminem themselves.

“Temporary” is a song made for Hailie (Eminem’s only biological daughter) for her to listen to after Eminem dies. In this heartfelt track, Eminem reflects on his fears of not being able to communicate his feelings to Hailie once he’s gone. He recalls their close relationship, his struggles, and the guidance he wants to leave behind. Eminem emphasizes the importance of staying strong through tough times and assures Hailie that heartbreak is temporary. The song includes personal and candid moments, such as a childhood recording of Hailie, adding a layer of authenticity and intimacy. Throughout the song, Eminem balances expressing his deep love and concern for his daughter with his signature raw and unfiltered lyrical style.

Last week, Hailie shared her reaction to the song during the latest episode of her Just A Little Shady podcast, saying: “I audibly sobbed, I think for both songs [Somebody Save Me and Temporary], but especially ‘Temporary. I feel like my parents did such a good job, growing up, where I didn’t realize 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 so much.”

Yesterday, one of the fans shared his hand tattoo of “TEMPORARY” with backwards E merged to M, like an Eminem logo. Skylar Grey reshared the photo on her Instagram Story with the caption: “First tattoo I’ve seen of this title…What an honor! It looks so good!” Check out the screenshot of t he story below:
