“Anthem Of Us” Is The Most Inspirational Video Of Detroit Yet

Play episode

Director Stephen McGee, with the words of Big Sean and the support of Bedrock Detroit, the real estate company that handles Gilbert’s properties, made a doozy of an inspirational short “film” that’s been setting the Detroiternet on fire, spreading like crazy.

It’s well-shot and visually stunning, and the impromptu words by Big Sean strike a chord. It takes it to the next level. Some might take it as cheesy; but sometimes, we need inspiration.

See, living in Detroit, often, isn’t easy. It’s a hard love sometimes. But it is home. And it’s the people that make it special.

As Big Sean said, “I love you Detroit, I love you for real.” So do we.

  • I am an Australian who has absolutely fallen in love with Detroit, its peoples, its history, its future, its energy, its compassion, its promise, and this is a brilliant video which sums up the question I am always quizzingly asked by people back home, and in even in the US [and Detroit], “why Detroit?” to which I can never really respond with anything other than, “there is just something I cannot explain about Detroit which I passionately love”.
    Thanks you Bedrock and thank you Big Sean for encapsulating what Detroit means to me, I only hope that my dream of living there can become a reality in time.

  • Thanks for the awesome write up. Really stoked on the reception of the film. Keep spreading great news.
