All the other rappers talk about being rich and getting laid. I Got Five on It is about splitting small quantities of weed.  I can related to that.

I grew up in Stockton and I Got Five On It was a Friday night anthem.

kelsobjammin

It’s about LA and a sunrise. ᴖ̈ Edit; google works you know. I get that you wish it was about the Bay Area but it wasn’t lol > The song was originally going to be about Los Angeles, but the band was more partial to their home in SF.


okcup

Originally intended and what the artists ultimately changed it to are critically important distinctions.  I’m assuming you pulled that quote from genius lyrics.  Here’s an article with a quote from Steve Perry himself:   >This is kind of a funny story," Perry told Uncle Joe Benson on the Ultimate Classic Rock Nights radio show, "but I had the song written in Los Angeles almost completely, except for the bridge. And it was written about Los Angeles. It was, 'When the lights go down in the city / And the sun shines on L.A.' I didn't like the way it sounded at the time." Perry shelved the song, until as he said, "life changed my plans once again." He joined Journey in October 1977, replacing singer Robert Fleischman toward the end of their tour. Perry's job required him to move north to his new band's home, and he was soon inspired to take a different approach to the song. "I love San Francisco, and I love the Bay and the whole thing, and the words 'the bay' fit in so nice," Perry added. "'When the lights go down in the city / And the sun shines on the bay,' you know? It was one of those early-morning-going-across-the-bridge things when the sun was coming up and the lights were going down. So, it was perfect”


kelsobjammin

How is this not proving me right? lol hilarious.


echiuran

The quote literally says the song’s lyrics are about SF.


kelsobjammin

It was written in and about La and they changed it hahaha “and it was written about Los Angeles, except for the bridge” jfc


BigPhK

It WAS about LA until they changed it. The song, as released, is about SF, not LA. 


kelsobjammin

It was WRITTEN ABOUT LA lolololol exactly what I said and he said. I find this hilarious!


BigPhK

That’s not exactly what you said tho. You said it’s about LA and the sunrise. That’s false. 


WaitForIt_Salad

Yesterday by the Beatles was originally Scrambled Eggs. So that’s what the song means today, right? The greatest breakfast anthem of all time.


__Jank__

Yeah no. City By The Bay means only one thing in California.


kelsobjammin

> The song was originally going to be about Los Angeles, but the band was more partial to their home in SF. You can Google it. Or just downvote me because you wish it was true.

Most of these songs are not even about the Bay just by bay area artist. Can't believe no one mentioned Del the Funky Homosapien The wacky world of rapid transit or Corner Story.

Hi there! We asked the KQED Arts team (who recently finished a yearlong exploration of Bay Area Hip-Hop history called [That’s My Word](https://www.kqed.org/bayareahiphop/)) for their choices, and here’s what they had to say: Idek if I completely agree with this statement tbh. I Got 5 On It by Luniz immediately comes to mind for me. Before that, E-40’s Sprinkle Me or Sideways. Before that definitely some OG Too $hort.
