Damn E-40 is garbage

I think the biggest take away I got from 40 was I remember being a child and seeing him on TV and shit. I remember "Sprinkle Me"back in the 90's...and its 2020 and he still making music and making hits. Hate him or love him...he and Short Dogg have stood the test of time far better than other guys who y'all flock to.
Agreed! Went to a 40 concert bout 3yrs ago. Saw ages ranging from teens to niggaz who looked 50+ rocking zoot suits all rocking out to his music. Shit was great!...

"Sprinkle me" was my shit...

I fucked with a lot of those bay area MC's back in the day "JT the bigga figga, Mac Mall, Dru down etc. but didn't really fuck with E-40...I knew a brotha back when I lived out West that was a HUGE E40 fan...I didn't get it initially, but was receptive to listening to him and started appreciating him more than I had.
I loved that Bay Area sound man. In the scheme of things it never really got its credit like LA/Compton/Long Beach did.

i disagree

that is a damn LEGACY in the bay

worldwide respect noit JUST rap

from the panthers and the hippies to the pimps to hip hop to LGBT+ community to tech money?

to just STRAIGHT Hustlers OVERALL

but ESPECIALLY in hip hop

the Bay got a lock int the history of hip hop

Drake recently sampling Dru Down,

Too short name STILL rings bells

not to mention Sway, Hammer, Mac Dre, Suga T, 4 Tay, Suga Free, and that new young girl kamiyah?
 
Hip Hop is all things, stop the bullshit. We respect an artist for all that they are, in completion. So okay if he was a super emcee but was broke as fuck like say De La Soul ( who I love), folks would dump on that side of the argument. His economic development is extremely important to Black people and Black artists. E40 is not Rakim lyrically, but his songs, as a part of his total discography are legendary, decade after decade. You ain't gotta like a style, but if a artists makes a HIT, in ever decade since 1990, that means something, in my book.

For example, I am not the biggest Scarface fan, but aint no way in hell would I talk sideways, and try and say he is not a legend, just cause I am not from Houston. Just to be clear Scarface has a better discography than E40.....im not fucking insane :lol:
E40 has some of the most clever word gymnastics ever, the beats slap spanning different styles over time, and his ability to teach within the confines of hood shit, mixed with corporate shit is amazing.

Enough stanning for me.
I don’t listen to de la soul. I don’t listen to slum village. I try not to listen to wack mothafuckas. I don’t claim Juveniles 400 Degrees is a classic. I think Talib Kwali just fucking sucks. We are all adults here. E 40 is fucking ass cheeks.
 
A lot of violations going on in this thread. Bamas talking shit about Mack 10 and E-40!? Violating. I still fucks wit 40 Water and Sik-Wit-It Records and have been since 1993.
BGOL gonna let this Mack 10 loving mofo slide?

How do you like both e 40 and Mack 10? Are you a mathematician and you’re pro any rapper with numbers in their name? How do you feel about Tekeishi69?

While true....the Bay never had anyone the caliber of Snoop or Dre or Kendrick.
