Yeah Throw it up y'all, throw it up, Throw it up Let's show these fools how we do this on that west side Cause you and I know it's tha best side Yeah, That's right West coast, west coast Uh, California Love California Love. TUPAC & DR DRE – CALIFORNIA LOVE – LYRICS ANALYSIS & MEANINGS. California Love! Sometimes things are clear straight away. Take any hip-hop fan before 1995 and play the sample of these two words sung in this sharp, mannered voice, and ask him whether it’s gangsta-rap, and the answer will be a sarcastic laugh: “Rap sending love, hm??” will retort any gangster among your friends.
Tupac Amaru Shakur, also known by his stage names 2Pac and Makaveli, was an American rapper and actor. He is considered by many to have been one of the best rappers of all time. Shakur was born in the Harlem neighborhood of New York City but relocated to Los Angeles in 1988. I love the way you activate your hips and push your ass out Got a nigga wantin' it so bad, I'm about to pass out Wanna dig you, and I can't even lie about it Baby, just alleviate your clothes, time.
California Love

California... knows how to party
In the city of L.A.
In the city, the city of Compton
Now let me welcome everybody to the wild, wild West
The track hits ya eardrum like a slug to ya chest
We in that sunshine state where the bomb-ass hemp be
And pimps be on a mission for them greens
I been in the game for ten years makin' rap tunes
Now it's '95 and they clock me and watch me
It's all good, from Diego to the Bay
Throw up a finger if ya feel the same way
Shake it, shake it, shake it, baby
Shake it, Cali
Shake it, shake it, baby, baby
Shake it, Cali...
Out on bail, fresh outta jail, California dreamin'
Tupac California Love
Soon as I step on the scene, I'm hearin' hoochies screamin'
The life of a West side playa where cowards die and the strong ball
Only in Cali where we riot not rally to live and die
In L.A. we wearin' Chucks not Ballies (that's right, uh)
Dressed in Locs and khaki suits and ride is what we do
Flossin' but have caution, we collide with other crews
Worldwide, let 'em recognize from Long Beach to Rosecrans
It's West side so you know the row won't bow down to no man
Say what you say but give me that bomb beat from Dre
From Oakland to Sactown, the Bay Area and back down
Cali is where they put their mack down, gimme love
Lyrics To California Love
Shake it, shake it, shake it, baby

Best Tupac Lyrics
(feat. Dr. Dre)
California love!
California...knows how to party
California...knows how to party
In the city of L.A.
In the city of good ol' Watts
In the city, the city of Compton
We keep it rockin! We keep it rockin!
[Verse One: Dr. Dre]
Now let me welcome everybody to the wild, wild west
A state that's untouchable like Elliot Ness
The track hits ya eardrum like a slug to ya chest
Pack a vest for your Jimmy in the city of sex
We in that sunshine state with a bomb ass hemp beat
the state where ya never find a dance floor empty
And pimps be on a mission for them greens,
lean mean money-makin-machines servin fiends
I been in the game for ten years makin rap tunes
ever since honeys was wearin sassoon
Now it's '95 and they clock me and watch me
Diamonds shinin', lookin' like I robbed Liberace
It's all good, from Diego to tha Bay
Your city is tha bomb if your city makin pay
Throw up a finger if ya feel the same way
Dre puttin it down for
Californ-i-a

Soon as I stepped on the scene, I'm hearin hoochies screamin
Fiendin for money and alcohol
the life of a west side playa where cowards die

Only in Cali where we riot not rally to live and die
In L.A. we wearin Chucks not Ballies (that's right, uh)
Dressed in Locs and khaki suits and ride is what we do
Flossin but have caution we collide with other crews
Famous cause we program worldwide
Let'em recognize from Long Beach to Rosecrans
Bumpin and grindin like a slow jam, it's west side
So you know the row won't bow down to no man
Say what you say
But give me that bomb beat from Dre
Let me serenade the streets of L.A.
From Oakland to Sactown
The Bay Area and back down
Cali is where they put they mack down
Cali-love
