There's roads in michigan that go in order from like 6 to 25. With a mile between each of them. 9 mile is where it starts to get black/hood . 8 mile is where detroit border is. I think big Sean was from 7 mile. I live on 13
:smugbiden:

There are a lot of black people around 12 actually.

Thought this was common knowledge, but 8 mile is the north border between Detroit and the suburbs. If you go north from 8 mile you go further into the suburbs and eventually you'll hit 9 mile, 10 mile, 11 mile, etc.

So 6 mile, 7 mile, etc. are in Detroit but anything higher than 8 mile (ie. north of it) is the suburbs. So he's just talking about people who claim to be from Detroit but have never been south of 10 mile.


Of course, the song was made before a bunch of white people started moving downtown and black people started going to the suburbs. :francis:
