About this song
"Boblo Boat" is the lead single from Royce Da 5'9"'s album Book of Ryan. The song is an ode to two steamships, the S.S. Columbia and the S.S. Ste. Claire, which ran the Detroit River until 1991. Royce has said the boats were a family vacation for him when he was young.
What it's about
The song finds Royce reminiscing about happy family trips to the amusement park, while J. Cole raps about growing up in North Carolina, from his first smoke at six to feeling cool while driving his mother's Civic.
