Detroit rapper Big Sean is showing some serious love to Eminem in his latest music video for “On Up”. The video, a heartfelt tribute to family and hometown, features a subtle yet powerful nod to the Rap God.
Sporting such symbol of Detroit as a Lions varsity jacket in one of the scenes, Big Sean makes another striking choice of wardrobe: an Eminem t-shirt. This isn’t just a casual fashion pick; it’s a deliberate homage to the artist who has significantly influenced his career. The rapper even rhymes “remnants” with “imminent” in the same scene, adding a lyrical layer to the visual tribute.
Big Sean is a big name in the Detroit rap scene, and his reverence for Eminem is known. Their latest collaboration, “Tobey”, went all the way to Em’s “The Death of Slim Shady (Coup De Grâce),” serving as the second single for the album.
