"East Coast" is a hip-hop song by American rapper ASAP Ferg. It was released as a single on April 7, 2017, by RCA Records.[2] The track was produced by DJ Khalil and features a guest appearance by American rapper Remy Ma.[3] Originally meant as the lead single from Ferg's third studio album, Still Striving, the song was excluded from the final track listing, as only the remix was included instead.
In an interview with Billboard ASAP Ferg said: "As far as creating the song and the visual, I just feel like I wanted to bring the New York energy back – bring it back to the fun videos and creativity and innovation".
He also spoke about working with Remy Ma for the music video: "It's so dope working with Remy Ma because she's a dope and funny individual and she's so professional. Getting into the studio with her, in the booth – I know why Big Pun wanted to make her his protege and invest in her coming up in the game. She's just an amazing person, and I feel like there was nobody else better to kick this new song off with."[6]
