Buried in Detroit

Buried in Detroit

Mike Posner

“Buried in Detroit”, a slow-paced ballad about Posner’s love for his hometown Detroit, was featured in both his 2015 EP album The Truth and his second studio album, At Night, Alone, listed as the 11th track.

In an article by the Rolling Stone, it is stated that “Detroit is still Posner’s biggest inspiration, even though Posner was raised in the suburbs.”

Posner has also said the following:

“I don’t feel like an ambassador to the city. I didn’t really experience any hardship like people tend to think of when they hear the words ‘Detroit, Michigan.’ I think Big Sean is a much better ambassador for the city.”

“Detroit is in my music consciously and subconsciously.”
