Music video
The video for "Drop the World" was directed by Chris Robinson. It was shot on January 31, 2010, the same day as the 52nd Annual Grammy Awards, where Eminem and Lil Wayne performed together. The video showcases moshing, rioting, and Wayne skateboarding through a busy street in New York City. It was premiered on March 5, 2010, on MTV Hits. The main concept of the video centers around Lil Wayne and Eminem being in the midst of a massive riot. Cash Money Records label boss Birdman and rapper Lloyd Banks both make cameo appearances.
Reception
Despite a generally negative reception for Rebirth, "Drop the World" received more positive reviews. "Drop the World" was arguably the most anticipated song from the album due to its guest feature from Eminem. In a review of the album, NME called the song the only highlight of Rebirth. The article discussed the meaning behind the song, noting that Lil Wayne simply avoids answering a question commonly asked by successful hip hop musicians: "How do you deal with 'real issues' when you've got enough money to buy your old neighborhood a hundred times over?" The magazine notes that, in the song, Lil Wayne avoids commenting on this question, and instead focuses his energy on "being so pissed off you have to get in a spaceship, pick the world up and drop it on some poor girl's 'fucking head.'" Ultimately, the article concludes the song only serves as a "what-could-have-been" demonstration for the album. Writing for Fairfax New Zealand's Stuff.co.nz website, Chris Schulz was less than impressed with "Drop the World", claiming that, even with Eminem, the song was unexceptional.
