Composition
edit"Bitches N Marijuana" is a West Coast hip hop song, with braggadocious lyrics about a promiscuous gangsta lifestyle filled with sex, money and marijuana.[3] The track's production was handled by Nic Nac, and XXL described it as synth-driven, featuring the producer's signature claps,[4] reminiscent of Brown's 2014 song "Loyal". Each artist on the song performs a rap verse, with Brown singing its chorus with "silky" vocals.[5]
Music video
editThe music video for the song was directed by Colin Tilley, and released on June 18, 2015.[6] In the beginning of the video, Brown phone calls Tyga, while they're both laying in bed with some girls in their respective houses, smoking marijuana, and they decide to organize and execute a party filled with women, cash and marijuana.[7][8] HotNewHipHop stated that the video is "backed by its dark ambiance & vibrant lights".[9]
