"No More Parties in LA" (often stylized as "No More Parties in L.A.") is a song by American rapper Kanye West from his seventh studio album, The Life of Pablo (2016), featuring vocals from fellow rapper Kendrick Lamar. It was produced by West and Madlib, who began the recording in 2010. The beat was originally offered to Freddie Gibbs before being given to West and Lamar by Madlib. The song was released as the third promotional single from the album as part of West's GOOD Fridays series on January 18, 2016.
A hip hop track, the song heavily samples Walter "Junie" Morrison's "Suzie Thundertussy". It also includes samples of Johnny "Guitar" Watson's "Give Me My Love", Larry Graham's "Stand Up and Shout About Love", and Ghostface Killah's "Mighty Healthy". In the lyrics, West reflects on Hollywood culture and the experience of fame, while Lamar recounts the beginning of a relationship. "No More Parties in LA" received universal acclaim from music critics, many of whom lauded West's verse. They often appreciated his lyricism and others complimented Lamar's verse, while a few reviewers highlighted the song's sampling. Reappraisal towards it in reviews of The Life of Pablo was also positive; critics generally praised the production.
"No More Parties in LA" was ranked as one of the best tracks of 2016 by multiple publications, including HipHopDX and Pitchfork. The song charted at number 3 and 39 on the US Billboard Bubbling Under R&B/Hip-Hop Singles chart and UK R&B Chart, respectively. It was certified gold in the United States by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA) in August 2018, and later platinum in May 2022. Yasiin Bey referenced the song with his freestyle "No More Parties in SA" in January 2016. A remix of the song was shared by Freddie Gibbs that same month, while Sporting Life later released his remix in February 2017.
