“Speedin” is Sú North’s latest collaborative effort, a feel good track featuring lo fi songstress Limbo. The pair do what they do best, combining tangibly positive lyrics with infectious alt-hip hop beats. North employs a “speeding” camera on a film set (otherwise known as “rolling”) as a metaphor for individual freedom and a push to “keep going until we get it right.”
Both Sú North and Limbo are based in the Bay Area, a hub for innovative sound. Together, their upbeat sensibilities melt. Sú North is best known for his project “Listening to Sunsets,” which tracked over a quarter million plays and 5.62 Million & 60.2K estimated views/engagement. He uplifted female voices on many of the tracks, which makes his work with Limbo pleasantly unsurprising.
Limbo has quite the audience herself, having the viral hit “Airplane Mode” launch her into the stratosphere in 2020 (the music video has acquired 2.5 million views to date). Her dream pop tracks and mystery cat mask have earned her 220.4k TikTok followers and 3.2 million likes, alongside 559K monthly Spotify listeners.
