Party On the West Coast Lyrics
Y'all niggas is a mess
Thinking I'm gon stop, giving LA props
Ain't no party like a West Coast party
'Cause a West Coast party don't stop
[Hook: Faith Evans]
When we party on the West Coast (on the West Coast)
Drinkin' and smokin' all night, all night long
We keep it funky on the West Coast
(They gon' keep it funky on the West Side)
I got love for my people on the West Coast, yeah
[Verse 1: The Notorious B.I.G. + Snoop Dogg]
When the la-la hits ya, lyrics just splits ya
Head so hard, that your hat can't fit you
Either I'm with ya or against ya
Format venture, back through that maze I sent ya
The maze is a daze, I blaze, I will amaze
Smokin' while you're loccin' with some California A's
Me and B.I.G., what it is, get it in
Sippin' gin with the Hen in the alleyway
Bangin' the Cali way
Talking to the rap inventor
Nigga with the game tight, fifth of that flame right
Spell my name right, B-I, double-G, I-E
Iced out, lights out, me and Cease-a-Leo
S-N-double O-P, big D-O
Old school nigga, '84 El Camino
LBC know, we love Biggie though
I.E.Y. in even Bernadino
When we party on the West Coast (on the West Coast)
Drinkin' and smokin' all night, all night long
We keep it funky on the West Coast
(They gon' keep it funky on the West Side)
I got love for my people on the West Coast, yeah
[Verse 2: The Notorious B.I.G. + Snoop Dogg]
Going back to Cali, strictly for the weather
Women and the weed - sticky green
No seeds bitch please, Poppa ain't soft
Dead up in the hood, ain't no love lost
Y'all know I'm from the West, I'm the king to be exact
You better holla at me when you need that chronic sack
I got it all, one call, no stall, on the ball
Winter, spring, summer, fall
Listen to me, holla at ya dogg
Words of the clever, forever multiply
Birds of a feather, preparin' 'em to fly
Perfection, selection
This is a B.I.G. D.P.G.C. connection
I'ma spell my name one more time, check it
It's the, N-O, T-O, R-I, O
U-S, you just, lay down, slow
Sipping on booze in the House of Blues, what it do!
When we party on the West Coast (on the West Coast)
Drinkin' and smokin' all night, all night long
(We be drinkin' and smokin' all night)
We keep it funky on the West Coast
(We gon' keep it funky on the West Side)
I got love for my people on the West Coast, yeah
[Interlude: The Notorious B.I.G. & Snoop Dogg]
Spend about a week, on Venice Beach
Y'all niggas is a mess
Thinking I'm gon stop, giving LA props
Ain't no party like a West Coast party
'Cause a West Coast party don't stop
[Hook: Faith Evans]
When we party on the West Coast (on the West Coast)
Drinkin' and smokin' all night, all night long
(We be drinkin' and smokin' all night)
We keep it funky on the West Coast
(We gon' keep it funky on the West Side)
I got love for my people on the West Coast, yeah
[Interlude: Snoop Dogg]
Ain't no party like a West Coast party
'Cause a West Coast party don't stop
Don't you wanna ride with me?
Don't you wanna ride ?
People come and ride with me
To the West Side
Party, on the West Coast
Don't you wanna ride with me?
Don't you wanna ride ?
People come and ride with me
To the West Side
Party, on the West Coast

A couple months ago I got in touch with another legend Faith Evans and asked to put this collaboration together to celebrate Biggie’s birthday. Her and her team are amazing, her voice and vibe is incredible, and now I’m honoured to share a song with her, the one and only Snoop Dogg and the legend who changed my life, like I think he changed so many lives, and to who I am always grateful.

It was a pleasure working with Matoma on “Party on the West Coast.” After the success of “Old Thing Back,” it was a no brainer to bring Matoma and B.I.G. together again. Happy we were able to make something special around The King & I campaign.
– Faith Evans in a 2017 interview with EDM Sauce.
It’s funny how big a difference one person can have on your life. I’ll never forget the first time I heard Biggie, my big brother Dan played me Ready To Die and I never heard anything like it. I couldn’t understand the words or the stories but I could feel them, his flow, the vibe, it changed me. A few years ago, with nothing but this same respect and love for such a legend, I took a Biggie acapella from YouTube and made “Old Thing Back” with my own inspirations, in my bedroom in Trondheim, mixed with just one speaker! Yesterday I just found out it achieved GOLD sales in America. The impact that this great man has had on me not only with the music that fueled me as a teenager but to this insane achievement in the beginning of my career, words can’t describe.
