For his first solo album in ten years, west coast legend MC Eiht has teamed up with east coast legend DJ Premier. The album, titled Which Way Iz West, originated from Eiht's perception that the west coast was operating on an aimless trajectory. "Maybe we lost our way and we need to get back to what West Coast music really was," Eiht tells HipHopDX. "Make some music that got me in the door for some of those fans who have been riding with me since the beginning.”
The latest single "Represent Like This" features WC and Primo, and is unapologetically old-school west coast. Bonus points for g-funk whistles.
Quotable Lyrics
Two hard motherfuckas, west up
Wife beater, bandanna and a paper cup
Four deep two hats to the back,
One shooter on deck when the beef gon crack
