HOLLYWOOD Lyrics
Smokin’, drinkin’, fuckin’
And the opps, they ain’t on nothin’
Got it on me when I’m in the function
Nigga starin’ too hard and I’m bussin’
Got a switch on this blick, you can’t duck this
And the clip too big, I can’t tuck shit
This some West Coast shit, you can’t fuck wit’
South Central all the way to Sunset
From Bompton all the way to Sunset
I ain’t bummin’ if I can’t get the gun in
If I’m bummin’, then you know I bring the Bloods in
Blood in, blood out, bitch, we thuggin’
Throwin’ up gang signs
On that fuck the opps shit so much, they try to hit me with a hate crime
Chances, I’ma take mines
Good pussy gotta fly across state lines
Yeah, got your lady spoiled
Hundred bottles at the crib, no baby oil
Yeah, got your lady spoiled
Hundred bottles at the crib, no baby oil
Smokin’, drinkin’, fuckin’
And the opps, they ain’t on nothin’
Got it on me when I’m in the function
Nigga starin’ too hard and I’m bussin’
Got a switch on this blick, you can’t duck this
And the clip too big, I can’t tuck shit
This some West Coast shit, you can’t fuck wit’
South Central all the way to Sunset
From Hollywood all the way to Bompton
Think about Nip when I’m on Slauson
Selling hoes on Fig like an auction
When you approach me, do it with some caution
I just turned Coachella into Hochella
And I got it on me, I’m a known felon
Catch a case, take a charge, I don’t do no tellin’
Don’t do no arguin’, don’t do no yellin’
Anytime that I perform, I got a blick on the stage
You can tell I’m cuttin’ up, startin’ to look like Johnny Cage
Sell good cocaine on my burst free range
Bitch, I came from the trenches, shoot outs and runnin’ fades
Smokin’, drinkin’, fuckin’
And the opps, they ain’t on nothin’
Got it on me when I’m in the function
Nigga starin’ too hard and I’m bussin’
Got a switch on this blick, you can’t duck this
And the clip too big, I can’t tuck shit
This some West Coast shit, you can’t fuck wit’
South Central all the way to Sunset
This that West Coast shit you can’t fuck with
I got her suckin’ on my dick, she got the duck lips
Freaky ass bitch, wanna fuck me with no condom
Wipe a nigga nose, if we spot ’em then we on him, bitch
You see the boogers on the face like I’m sick
You try to turn her to her wife, but she out here doin’ dicks
She showin’ out, she doing tricks
I bend her over, then she put me on the floor and did the splits
I love the way she make it grip
I might let you give me head, baby, but don’t kiss me on my lips
We got one, two, three, four blickies in the VIP
Let a nigga try to trip, we throwin’ bullets in this bitch
Let a nigga trip, he gon’ get a facelift
That forty Glock got him doin’ the Matrix
All the pretty hoes gon’ play this
Joey Bada$$ gon’ hate this
Smokin’, drinkin’, fuckin’
And the opps, they ain’t on nothin’
Got it on me when I’m in the function
Nigga starin’ too hard and I’m bussin’
Got a switch on this blick, you can’t duck this
And the clip too big, I can’t tuck shit
This some West Coast shit, you can’t fuck wit’
South Central all the way to Sunset
HOLLYWOOD Lyrics Meaning
[Chorus]
In the chorus, YG sets the tone for the track by detailing the high-energy, rebellious lifestyle he leads—smoking, drinking, and casual sex—all while remaining vigilant in the face of potential threats. He emphasizes that he’s always armed when attending social events, indicating a world where violence is just a glance away. The mention of a switch on the gun and an oversized clip reflects both bravado and a grim necessity for protection. His West Coast pride stands out, referencing South Central to Sunset as a territorial assertion and celebration of his origins.
[Verse 1]
YG reinforces his gang affiliations by referencing “Blood in, blood out,” a nod to the initiation and lifelong loyalty demanded by gang culture. He declares that if he can’t bring a weapon into a venue, he won’t attend, underlining how deeply embedded violence and preparedness are in his daily routine. Sexual dominance, material wealth, and control are also recurring motifs—highlighted by his casual reference to satisfying a woman and flaunting luxury with “hundred bottles at the crib.” The line “no baby oil” adds a playful, if crass, twist, maintaining the track’s gritty yet hedonistic energy.
[Chorus]
The chorus returns to reinforce the song’s central ideas. Repetition intensifies the mood of persistent watchfulness and decadence, showing how deeply intertwined pleasure and danger are in YG’s world. The reassertion of territorial dominance connects listeners once again to the West Coast lifestyle he’s representing.
[Verse 2]
This verse delves deeper into YG’s connection to specific Los Angeles locales like Slauson and Hollywood, honoring fallen rapper Nipsey Hussle and nodding to sex work along Figueroa. His transformation of Coachella into “Hochella” is a boast of his cultural and social influence. YG addresses his criminal history candidly, embracing his status as a felon while maintaining a code of silence about legal matters. His refusal to argue or raise his voice contrasts with the violent outcomes he implies, highlighting a persona of cold, controlled aggression. The Johnny Cage reference and imagery of selling drugs reinforce the gritty, combative persona that permeates the entire track.
[Chorus]
Again, the chorus acts as a thematic anchor, reminding listeners of the ever-present blend of sex, intoxication, violence, and regional loyalty. The lines remain unchanged but continue to reflect the high-stakes lifestyle YG portrays.
[Verse 3]
YG intensifies the sexual and violent imagery here, rapping about explicit acts, armed readiness in VIP sections, and spontaneous retaliation against threats. The “duck lips” visual paired with raw sexual descriptions serves to shock and entertain, pushing the boundaries of explicit content. He also mocks men who try to turn promiscuous women into wives, adding a layer of cynicism about relationships. The verse ends on a note of lethal bravado, with gunplay and physical violence portrayed as instant and inevitable, making it clear that YG’s world is one of constant confrontation and dominance.
[Outro]
The outro is brief but effective, concluding with a warning: anyone who crosses YG risks violent consequences. The references to Hollywood aesthetics—like giving someone a “facelift” via a gun and dodging like the “Matrix”—tie cinematic imagery to street violence. The mention of Joey Bada$$ serves as a possible jab, suggesting artistic rivalry or thematic opposition. It underscores the combative, take-no-prisoners attitude that defines the track from start to finish.
