Transcript

I live in West Hollywood, I work in Beverly Hills, I'll spend most of my time in West Hollywood, Silver Lake, Echo Park, Los Feliz. I'll even go to the West side. Moral of the story is, I send my time on this side of the hill, okay? That you guys, I've been venturing. I'm gonna be the first one to say it. I fuck with the Valley. Shit, sorry. I fuck with the Valley. I'm sorry. I fuck with the Valley. It's like, kind of really nice over here. I'm understanding the hype. Like, is it slower? For sure. It's not the raw raw like this side of the hill. But shit, you guys are clean over here. You guys have parking lots. You guys have some good ass food. The vibes are good. They might have something we don't. And like before anyone fucking jumps in my comments and is like, transplant figures out the Valley exists for the first time. I'm from Long Beach, okay? So like, don't even start with Valley kids. I would have loved to grown up over here. It's nice as fuck.
