Cali Brehs...Tell Me Why Ya'll Like E-40 ?

[Blankthawtz]

not tryin to diss this dude like i use to back in the day...but i tried to listen to his music when i was younger and i just couldn't get into it whatsoever...i'm a Eastcoast breh but i got Cali music that i've fukked with for years (dre..snoop..mac dre...etc)...40 shyt was just super wack to me...that jibberish he was spittin just didn't click..

i'm watchin the interview about how he called off the hit on Biggie for him sayin he was a trash rapper....but was big lyin?.....i'm tryin to give this dudes catalog another honest spin since i've gotten older....but really wanna know what yall see in this guy...gimme a track that i NEED to hear that puts him as worthy of HOF?

i see him in interviews/espn and he seems like an alright kat....but this bout his music....

Man y'all hate on E40 on here
Go to The Bay and say e40 sucks

 

[Deltron]

he's a bay legend and puts out dope shyt.

I could see why some peeps wouldn't fukk with him, but he's dope

 

[MaxPain]

Dude is garbage as fukk musically. Makes my ears bleed

I respect his hustle and originality tho

 

[dora_da_destroyer]

Breh spits game, why y'all keep making threads asking us to defend dude? He ain't for you then keep it moving, ain't nobody making "NYC dudes, tell me how the fukk you listen to nature or das efx"

Everybody got super regional people they fukk with, end of thread.

I don’t rock with 40s music and I’m less than a hr away from where he’s from not everybody listening to bay music out here.

It's a gutter/west coast mentality you must understand to "get" 40.


I know he's loved in the southwestern states.It's always the rock bottom folks, to.


Hoods that look 3rd world....Housing projects..etc..etc

I was in these Housing Project's in Arizona called the "Centipedes"(A play on "Sidney P Osborn")

And these niccaz had their own code language based off of E 40 soundbites.



I particularly remember that one^^ (0:59-1:04)

If you heard "Wassuppper!" or "Burn Rubber!".......Get out of dodge.



In order to get 40, you just had to be there(west/southwest).....mainly

40 is that dude. He's an innovator that's why you don't like him. He makes new slang you've never heard, new flows, concepts. It's honestly some Bay area shyt.

I remember telling my brother in law, whose from LA, I don't get the hype behind MC Eiht. He told me Eiht wasn't the best rapper but he put on for his hood and his set and LA and that's why he has support. I guess 40 is in the same zone but I've always fuked with forty

Ehit and 40'Watra always put street game in their music back when you had to read between the lines to get to it if you wasn't already on it...

 

[SuburbanPimp]

The E40 hate is something I will never understand. Dude is very unique especially with his flow, brought hella slang to rap. And if you listen to his albums (Early Work) he spits real shyt...

In a Major Way, Federal, Hall of Game is the shyt I came up on...

Always was independent and was about Hustle , well respected in the rap community. A funny dude..

Midwest (KC MO..Miltown..St Louis) and the south 40 D Shot and B Legit went to Grambling and of course everything he did w Lil Jon

If you actually knew what he was saying, maybe you'd have a different opinion.
