Context
The word "chopper" relates to a type of fast-paced rap, a style of Midwest hip hop called chopper. In the late 1990s, Tech N9ne popularized the chopper style among his fan base. From 2007 to 2011, he released a number of songs in collaboration with other chopper-style artists exclusively in this fast-paced style of rap,[3] including "Midwest Choppers" featuring the Midwest rappers D-Loc, Dalima and Krizz Kaliko (from his 2007 album Misery Loves Kompany) and "Midwest Choppers 2" featuring K-Dean and Krayzie Bone (from his 2009 album Sickology 101). "Worldwide Choppers" became the third song in this series.[3]

Music video
Tech N9ne and Yelawolf claimed in interviews that a music video was being shot for the song, but the video never entered production. This was due to the difficulty of having such a large group of artists available to film at the same time.[4]
Sequel
A sequel titled "Speedom (WWC2)" is on Tech N9ne's album called Special Effects. The song features guest vocals from Krizz Kaliko and Eminem.[5]
