Everywhere you look in L.A., you're reminded of what you're a part of - or what you're not a part of. And everyone you meet is talking about the same thing all the time.
I'm a West Coast ratchet L.A. artist.
If you're a vegan fast food joint in L.A., you just don't speak the same language as the heartland.
My entire personality changes when I'm in L.A.
I love Los Angeles. It reinvents itself every two days.
We're crazy about this city. Los Angeles? That's just a big parking lot where you buy a hamburger for the trip to San Francisco.
whoever said progress was a positive thing has never been to Florida or California.
On the West Coast, things are more relaxed, maybe because people have more fun outdoors. In the East, where the weather is not so good, people have to stay indoors. They're very knowledgable fans. This makes you play even harder.
I have two houses in California, and they're both within a couple of minutes from the beach. So, I definitely feel at home in California and by the ocean.
When I was still in high school I knew I wanted to live in California.
California deserves whatever it gets. Californians invented the concept of life-style. This alone warrants their doom.
I'm definitely a West Coast artist, so much so that I'm gonna get 'Thug Life' tatted on my stomach one day.
I have always identified with Joan Didion's depiction of Los Angeles and Southern California, ever since reading 'Play It As It Lays,' 'Slouching Towards Bethlehem' and 'The White Album.'
I was born in Northern California and lived there until I was about eight years old. Then my parents moved me up to Seattle. I lived there from ages eight to 16. When I was a California kid, I remember running around in my bathing suit and barefoot all the time and getting a suntan.
I always like going to the West Coast. I don't know if it's a certain field, team, whatever it is, but I usually seem to do well here.
I've spent a lot of time in L.A. and I love it. A lot of Brits can't stand the place, but I like the West Coast attitude and the way people celebrate success.
My sense of Los Angeles was very New York provincial, as in 'all those people are crazy out there' (which they are), and stupid (which they're not), and immoral (it's more interesting than that).
I grew up in LA so I'm definitely a West coast girl. It's a totally different beach. It's a totally different ball game. I feel like on the East Coast being at the beach is something they don't get to do a lot. So you get this feeling where feel the energy of everybody just being so excited to be on vacation or in the sun. Here in LA I feel like we get that a little bit more so we don't appreciate it as much. But there you could really feel the energy.
I'm not really a Hollywood person. Not that I don't like L.A., but I'm just a Northern California guy.
I was never a pipe or bong man. That's California stuff. I was an Eastern roller.
I've had an interesting time adjusting to New York. I'm from California and I'm very much a California girl. I feel lucky to officially say I'm bi-coastal.
You haven't lived until you've died in California
I'm in my early thirties. I live in Los Angeles, California. I'm an artist.
I love it in the States. The roads are big, the food is big. If it was possible to be in L.A. and still live my racing life, I would move now.
West Coast hip hop was the sound of my neighbourhood. It was something I could relate to because it had a sound that felt like my surroundings - almost more so than what they were saying. That music was made to be bumped in a Cadillac!
