Eminem brought together the most notable rappers from the Motor City for his hometown tribute "Detroit vs. Everybody." After dropping the track back in November ahead of Shady Records' two-disc ShadyXV compilation, Eminem, Big Sean, Danny Brown, Dej Loaf, Royce da 5'9", and Trick Trick are back for the video (via Rap-Up).

In the black-and-white clip, each rapper takes his or her turn rep the D in front of shots of the city's landmarks such as American Coney Island, Greektown Casino, and Joe Louis Arena.

"Detroit vs. Everybody" marked the first collaboration between Eminem and Big Sean, who spoke with Rap-Up about the collaboration before it dropped.

"We kicked it in the studio, me, him, Royce [Da 5'9″]," Sean told. "We ate Jet's Pizza. We vibed. He's a really cool guy. Growing up in the D, he's like a ghost. You hardly see him and when you see him it's like, 'Oh sh*t.' The song was great. I hope people enjoy it. It's some real rap sh*t for real."

About a month after "Detroit vs. Everybody" dropped, Shady Records shared a massive remix 16-minute remix of the Statik Selektah-produced track, which featured damn near every rapper from the city including Trick Trick, Dej Loaf, Guilty Simpson, Black Milk, Sino, Marv Won, Payroll, Hydro, Big Gov, Boldy James, Kid Vishis, Big Herk, Icewear Vezzo, Detroit Che, Calicoe, and Diezel.

The ShadyXV compilation debuted at No. 3 on the Billboard Top 200 albums chart. "Detroit vs. Everybody" has since inspired remixes from other cities, including Boston.
