Death Row Records and Big Snoop Dogg
This is a Death Row summer
And we about to get off
Into this October London
Featuring LaToiya Williams yes
Somethin' to ride to mulholland Drive
Ha ha ha ha yes
I'm on top of the world, baby
Please don't hold me down
While the world is goin' crazy ohhh
I'm keepin' my head down
I got the TV on but it ruins my vibe
Look at the clock, it's 'bout that time
Ohhh, I wanna ride, baby take a ride with me
The sunlight's gone but the moon's so bright
Ohhh, I'm 'bout to cruise
Down Mulholland Drive
Ohhh, I need some quiet time
Quiet time with me
Ohhh, baby (oooh, oooh)
I wanna get away from the world
(ohhh my, my baby) no TV
No radio nooo
Ohhh, baby (whoo, whoo)
I wanna get away from thе world
(ohhh my baby)
Ohhh, no negative in my sedativе, no, no, no
Oooh, said I wanna go for a long ride
Somewhere far, far away from here
Where's there no negative space
No gender, creed, or race
Ohhh, just me and the highway
Ahhh, just me and you and the moon
75 degrees in the middle of June
Sunroof open (windows down)
Nowhere to go (let's just skip town)
I just wanna go somewhere and escape
Baby, take me to a place
Somewhere far, far away from here
Ohhh, baby (oooh, oooh)
I wanna get away from the world
(ohhh my, my baby) no TV
No radio nooo
Ohhh, baby (oooh, oooh)
I wanna get away from the world
(ohhh my baby)
Ohhh, no negative in my sedative, no, no, no
Ohhh, baby (oooh, oooh)
I wanna get away from the world
(ohhh my, my baby) no TV
No radio nooo
Ohhh, baby (oooh, oooh)
I wanna get away from the world
(ohhh my baby)
Ohhh, no negative in my sedative, no, no, no
Ohhh, baby (oooh, oooh)
I wanna get away from the world
(ohhh my, my baby) no TV
No radio nooo
Ohhh, baby (ohhh)
Yes (I wanna get away from the world)
Give me some mo'
Meaning & Review October London - Mulholland Drive (feat. LaToiya Williams)
When I first heard "Mulholland Drive" by October London, I was impressed. This track, with its unmistakable sound, reminds us of the old-school R&B, yet it feels fresh and relevant. If you closed your eyes and listened, you might think it’s nothing but a lost Marvin Gaye track. Indeed, October London's voice sounds like it could be Marvin Gaye's sibling, which, of course, evokes a storm of emotions and nostalgia for fans of classic soul music.
The music video for the song, released on April 10, 2024, immediately drew attention for its high-quality visuals and vibrant musical accompaniment. Although there are some questions about the absence of Latoiya Williams, the visual representation creates an atmosphere long awaited by fans. It’s like a modern tribute to past stars with a contemporary twist.

Comments include enthusiastic responses where people mention how the song takes them back in time and evokes warm feelings. This track has become a real revelation for many who have missed quality and rich R&B music that truly makes the heart flutter.
