Noisey is proud to present the final episode of its Made In America series, which heads to Los Angeles. For the series, directed by acclaimed filmmaker and music video director Lance Bangs, Noisey and Budweiser travelled the country to speak with world famous and locally adored artists, including Nelly, Ben Gibbard, and Danny Brown, and explored the cities that made them.

Tackling the LA scene is not an easy task, but with the help of a killer set of artists, Noisey was able to piece together Tinseltown's musical history.

To do so, we met up with Warren G in Long Beach at the scene of the "Regulate" video, watched as Egyptian Lover demonstrated his 808 prowess, and spent time with Warpaint, Ariel Pink, Trash Talk, Sam Spiegel (N.A.S.A./Squeak E. Clean), Jennifer Herrema (Royal Trux/Black Bananas), and Soko.

Plus, we discussed the ethics of LA's punk scene with Social Distortion frontman Mike Ness, Alice Bag of The Bags, Randy from No Age, and David Yow of Scratch Acid and The Jesus Lizard.
