This is based on his life. He has three daughters. Hailie is his only biological daughter, but he adopted Laney (the other girl in the video). She was the daughter of his ex wifes twin sister - and later he adopted Whitney. The daughter his ex wife had with another man. Laney just got married, and Hailie is engaged. They seem to be doing very well😊

@@javiersosa3255 What are you even talking about? Whitney is doing good as well. She's non-binary, but there is nothing wrong with her. Eminem even commented on her in an interview awhile back saying she was doing well, and his 3 daughters are what he's most proud of. Even though she's not his biological daughter, Eminem considers them all his real children.

This is one of a few reasons Eminem is compared to 2pac - His ability to go from aggressive/scary/psycho lyrics like 3am or Brain Damage etc to something as serious and emotional as Mockingbird or Hailey's Song.

I'm 100% sure if it wasn't for Hailie we would have lost Em years ago, that girl was his rock. She has grown up into a beautiful, smart successful woman. The other little girl was his niece that he ended up raising and adopting. Even through all the crazy life he is still an amazing dad.

This is why people love Em - he's not afraid to be real. He doesn't hide all the time behind an image and play "gangsta". He will reveal his heart and people relate to that. Fake can get you attention, but it doesn't keep people's attention for long. The spectacle passes. People want to feel connected to artists and sitting on a mountain of cash surrounded by "bitches" isn't relatable and frankly, gets tiring to hear about.

I grew up without my dad and I became a dad at 17 my kids are strong and beautiful and I’m 28 now got a 10 year old boy and a 5 year old girl. I realised that my dad taught me a valuable lesson by leaving us. I knew the struggles me my siblings and my mum felt without my dad there. I knew when I got older I was gonna take care of my own and love them to death. This song is beautiful and I’m happy to share this story with you guys. Your reaction was pure and awesome ✌️to anyone out there who never had there dad around know this. One day you’ll look at that as a blessing because it helped piece the person you are. 💪

A beautiful reaction . When music moves you inside it has successfully served its purpose as art .

Eminem is able to make us have all emotions. Laugh, cry and everything in between. You should listen to one of his freestyles

A lot of us men in the Untied States can relate to Marshalls life.

Their reaction is genuine though.. i felt that

I've listened to this track hundreds of times but this is the first time I've listened to it while watching the video. After my marriage ended last year, and having daughters myself, this broke me.

Wonderful song and video. So sad what they went through. Your reactions were so sweet and lovely.

i cry everytime and ive knew this song for most my life! , I get you girls 100% x

I love the raw reaction from you two. And the fact that your not talking through it or pausing every second. Great job. React to more eminem like HAILEYS SONG.

4:54 those few lines are about Laney. Laney was the daughter of his ex wife’s sister. There was nobody there to take her in, so he did & raised her since she was like 4 years old. He also took in Whitney which was his ex wife’s daughter that she had with a different man. So Eminem took in 2 little girls that needed parents & raised them as a single father. That just makes me respect him on a whole different level because very few men would do that. They all seem to be doing great, and it’s clear he did a damn incredible job as a father & he continues to.

This song is one of his best ones ever, it’s very emotional and if you know his story and his background, you know

This song is very heart felt .....you would not be the 1st person to cry listening to this song! Many of us have ...believe me! ❤😢. Great reaction ladies! Nice to see new people discovering Eminem! 😁💕

Its so amazing to see em reach poeple with his music. And the music having the lovely effect it was meant to have

Bravo girls!!! There is sooooo many legendary songs from EM....easy👏🏼🙏🏼

Thank you both for sharing your deep emotions with us! Kind regards and hugs!! All the best for your future Stefan

If you want a real tearjerker, Eminem ‘Castle’ and then ‘Arose’ in that order. You need to do them together. ‘Headlights’ is also really good and very emotional. He’s such a wonderful storyteller.

I am a 63 year old grandmother and this song still touches my heart when I hear it

This song is at the top of my list of reasons why he is objectively a requirement in any “Top 5”. We can all name the few rappers who have made you cry with a verse. That is the mark of a true artist - a poet. This song alone puts Eminem in that category. It is flawless lyrically and the story will break any parent in half. When he talks about the presents under the tree…that’s one of the most powerful visuals I’ve ever heard in any genre. The only emcees that really floored me like that were Ghostface in “All that I got is you”, Quan in “Just a Moment” and Danja Mowf in “Strange Fruit”. Em absolutely created a diamond that everyone can appreciate with this track.

More Eminem. Please 🙏🥺

We all just taught about our parents and our fathers…and it all gets emotional when you understand everything and how deep it is, i also cried a lot ❤

You two are just beautiful souls, thank you for this reaction, much love!

This is true story!

I've probably heard this song at least a hundred times by now and still get goosebumps everytime I hear it.

I've loved this song since I was a child and I still cry every time. Especially with the video. Same with When I'm Gone and honestly, a lot of Eminem's songs. So it's not just you, my sisters😂 loved the reaction, you're both beautiful. New subscriber🤚🏾

Some people will never understand how this song hits either the dad that we had or the Dad we wish we had. It's such a complicated yet beautiful strange journey to be a daughter to father, even a father figure. Men, be good to your girls. Please.

I see how this is so emotional for you. The lyrics have touched your heart. I'm a mother and embrace you in a big hug. May peace and love always be with you

Y’all made me cry 😭

Man this song still has me balling my eyes out like it was the first time I have heard it. More so now because of how grown up his kids are now and how far they have come.

It has been almost 20 years and this song still makes me cry every time I hear it. Also his song Sing for the Moment makes me cry too, such powerful songs that I found in a dark time in my life.

I'll never forget that Christmas I sat up the whole night crying cause daddy felt like a bum, see daddy had a job but his job was to keep the food on the table for you and mom. Damn, this verse is absolutely sad, really hard. Goat

Y'all got me crying and I've heard this song a thousand times over the years

Eminem the lyrically genius. This song really got me as I know what he went through fighting for his daughter. ❤

Aww, you're both so sweet for getting emotional, I love seeing it, you made me cry too.

Music with meaning ceases to never not move people emotionally that is what makes a great artist songs or sounds that can connect people or connect with people

This is a true story of his life. These are his real home videos.

I just randomly came across this video and it just made me literally cry, this is one of the best authentic reaction videos I’ve ever seen. Amazing ❤

It's really wild how emotional the video and song make people. Both men and women get hit in the feelings watching this one. It really is a beautiful song.

Beautiful. Em was with me - as with many, many of us - from the early days of youth. Broken and genius at the same time. Much love.

Best reaction I've ever seen. I was crying with you. Such beautiful souls 💖

im an eminem fan and listen to this very often and since i started listening to it a lot i dont cry when i hear it but seeing other people cry always breaks my heart,and even if im seeing u for the first time this broke my heart

As the daughter of a loving father, this song always makes me cry too. ❤️

EM's life in his songs are Facts ❤That's why I love EM❤

This song has always hit me hard, growing up without either of my parents. They say you have to just move on, but it doesnt go away, no matter how old you get. Seeing them start new families and forget about you, it hurts. I'm almost 30, and it still feels like my childhood was ripped away from me. Forced to grow up way too young.

Love the reaction, so real🙌🏼💪🏼❤️

Bless you two beautiful hearted ladies

I cried too. This song hits so you hard cause he’s telling his truth to the world and letting us in. Eminem was the realest rapper out there

Love your reaction! This one always gets me in the feels. ❤

I got introduced to Em from my uncle and every time I listen to it, it makes me think of him and call him. I was his first baby before he had kids. ❤❤

👍 best reaction

I love how your reaction has an after thought section, not just the reaction. Great video.

Aww this was such a sweet reaction I thought I was the only one that cried when I first heard this

Music and remembering connects souls. Love.

I love y'alls genuine reaction.. this is how it hit us in 04

Played this all the time when I couldn't see my kid. Gets me 😢 every time!

Thank you for this reaction ❤️

I love this song. Now my grandson loves it too. It's based on an old lullaby called Hush Little Baby. A lot of people my age say don't listen to eminem cuz of his language, but his stories of finding happiness and being the best you can be are so good!

One of my faves from Em. I cried watching you cry but haven’t cried to the song in a long time.

As a father with two young boys this so real n trying to give those boys good life even if world trying to knock u down. Em always on point n speakin truth.

You 2 ladies have beautiful souls

This song, as well as Mockingbird, hit differently when you have kids man.

Em .... just Em ... he's the only one I've followed since his beginnings and am proud of what he's accomplished, his endurance, and all he has gone through to get where he is now. I wish I knew him personally, but just feeling his (more serious and motivating) songs in lift me up day to day ... that is enough. Stan of GOAT

The most beautiful reaction I have ever seen!!! ❤❤❤ Love the love!

Great reaction girls!!

One of Em's best. You two are sweethearts ❤

its hard not to cry listening to this. i was in elementary school when i heard this and i cried then

He did, he gave her the world.

This brought back so many memories for me this song. I was a teen when it came out and my mom abandoned me as a baby and my dad was abusive and I was doing drugs to take away the pain & his music used to make me feel so understood 😭

Such a beautiful song and a beautiful reaction. Thank you

Great reaction! 💙

An application of being true to yourself and fact this is one of his best storytelling including rest of us are going through in our life

I grew up listening to all his songs 😢❤ made me cry sometimes

No matter what time of the day, my tears would flow every time I listen to Mockingbird.

I absolutely love this reaction yall both are awesome. It was a great emotional song.

@3:36 be happy Em raised those girls, even adopted rich as hell and kept them out of beefs. Why he destroys people mentioning them, Em loves those girls 20 years into them its clear love
