Growing up in Park City, Utah, Ragland spent his younger years listening to metal and working his way through film school in California. After graduating from Chapman University, Ragland hooked up with friend Alex Mulé to start DJ'ing. The duo quickly made a name for themselves in L.A.'s local clubs, playing a mix of electro and Dutch house, and naturally progressing into production. With Mulé going his separate way, Ragland continued under the moniker Party Favor, releasing his first EP, Parkin' Lot Pimpin', on Bomb Squad in 2013. Combining the elements of Euro house and the southern sound of trap, Ragland managed to perfectly combine the genres, quickly establishing himself as the rising star on the EDM scene. Remixes for the likes of Showtek and Bro Safari propelled his profile even further and saw him release a few more singles on Bomb Squad before signing to Mad Decent. In 2014, Ragland released the single Bap U, and after amassing a huge number of plays online, the track appeared on a U.S. national TV advert as well as in the movies Vacation and How to Be Single. By 2016, he had played DJ sets across the world and at some of the biggest dance and rock festivals, including Coachella, Tomorrowland, and Ultra. More singles appeared that year, including Wiggle Wop, G-String, and Bust 'Em, and at the end of 2016, his first EP for Mad Decent, Party & Destroy, was released. Featuring guest spots from the likes of Gucci Mane, Dillon Francis, and Sean Kingston, the EP quickly hit the top spots on streaming and download services.

Party Favor Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴

Laying in the back of your car
I've been thinkin 'bout the ways that I took it too far
In pursuit of perfection, I lost my direction
And now I gotta reckon with the shame of tomorrow

See I always wanted more from the world, more from myself
Piling on the good times, high from the top shelf, yeah yeah
I heard that everybody's got a limit, man
I think I hit, 'cause I'm

'Cause I'm only
Guess I'm only

Human
Don't know what we're doin'
Fight because we're stupid
Life we just abuse it
Cryin' in confusion
I know I just ruin
Everything I worked for now I'm sitting all alone

Guess that makes me superhuman
Guess that makes me superhuman

Guess that makes me super
Guess that makes me super

Sittin' at the top of LA
Looking out at all the billboards and highways
Guess I answered the question, I'm not the exception
And now I gotta reckon with nobody to blame

See I thought that I could fly to the sun
Never get burned
Pride is a
Pride is a motherfucker
I know that everybody's got a limit
And one day, you're gonna hit it
'Cause you're

'Cause you're only
Yea we're only

Human
Don't know what we're doin'
Fight because we're stupid
Life we just abuse it
Cryin' in confusion
I know I just ruin
Everything I worked for now I'm sitting all alone

Guess that makes me superhuman
Guess that makes me superhuman

Guess that makes me super
Guess that makes me super
(Dada, da, dada)
(Dada, da, dada)
(Dada, da, dada, dada)
(Dada, dada)

Humans
Don't know what we're doin'
Fight because we're stupid
Life we just abuse it
Cryin' in confusion
I know I just ruin
Everything I worked for now I'm sitting all alone

Guess that makes me superhuman
Guess that makes me superhuman

Guess that makes me super
(Dada, da, dada)
(Dada, da, dada)




(Dada, da, dada, dada)

The repetition of "Don't know what we're doin'" and "Life we just abuse it" highlights a sense of confusion and recklessness in their actions, leading to a cycle of self-sabotage and disillusionment.
