Ro Spit and Nick Speed take listeners on a late night trip with new project Coney Island
DETROIT, MI — In Michigan, especially in urban cities like Detroit and Pontiac, coney islandrestaurants are more than just late night diners or hot dog joints. They’re the place friendsgather to catch up, hang out, and make plans. A trip to coney island after a long night out couldvery well turn into an adventure or party of its own.That vibe is exactly what multi-hyphenate creatives Ro Spit and Nick Speed have captured withtheir project, Coney Island, a concept album that takes the listener on late night journey toMichigan’s favorite late night grill.“Growing up, some of my favorite albums from other cities made me feel like I was right therewith the artists,” said Nick Speed. “I really wanted to make people feel like they were right inDetroit with some real people from the city every time they listen to the album.”For Detroit’s Nick Speed and Pontiac’s Ro Spit, collaborating on the project was a very naturaland authentic partnership, as the two have worked together frequently throughout their careers.Coney Island started with a small idea during the pandemic and expanded into a larger project.“Partnering with Nick Speed for this project was very organic. Originally, it was only supposed tobe a couple of freestyles during the pandemic, but turned into much more,” said Ro Spit. “Thisproject has its own sound that traces back to who we are as individual artists. We were able totake our own sounds, and create something new and refreshing.”While a trip to coney island may be the album’s theme, it is not the only representation of Detroitculture featured on the album. The album features 6aamm, SDNY, T. Calmese, Jam Bino, andBoldy James. Coney Island’s album artwork might feel familiar to many, as it was created byartist and muralist Sheefy McFly. Traces of Detroit slang and references, and sounds likeghettotech can also be heard throughout the entire album.“The album is designed for the listeners to get an authentic Detroit experience with each listen,”said Nick Speed. “ You will hear our slang, our thought process, our music selection, and whatwe believe in — real life situations.”
