Drink Champs Army, we're the first podcast that travels.
We traveled.
We came to California.

But we had to see one of the kings.

raping jive records for years.
Still?
For years.
He went independent.
He went independent and he's still
killing it. The guy gets
older and younger every
year. You old younger.
He's older. I'm an old-ass youngster, mate.
And the people has been
requesting this man
from the beginning of the show
because when it comes to slang
and when the people try to put me on the same level
as him I always say that's my OG
that's my big homie because he
got on before me and he made people say
his slang before me so I always
like to respect that it and it doesn't take nothing
away from me it adds on to me
but that is the slang
listen we call it the slanguistics
did you just make that up right now
sometimes I don't even know
but the slanguistic when it comes
to the slang at some
point in your life you said something
that this man said from you smell me
to I don't even want to keep going
I'll be here for 17 days

Another memory I had to you was you came in my studio.
I need the you on the record.
Yeah, yeah.
And you did the crazy.
shit. It's two people who did the craziest
shit in our studio. All right. For those who that don't
know, we had a studio on 32nd and Madison
between 32nd and 31st and Madison
and that's the rich neighborhood in
Manhattan, but we never cleaned up
because we just wanted to keep it hood.
We wanted to feel like we were doing. It felt like we
was in the Bronx. Yeah. That's it
was dirty. 40 water came to the
studio and you wrote your rhyme
on your stomach. You laid
down. Dirty-haired around. I'll say you're
slap. I can't let this happen. We don't
clean. I said, I told you
or our maid was fired for nine years,
and you still say,
is that how you really crafty around?
Most of the time I do,
but...
Get the fuck out of the room.
Yeah, most of the time I do,
when a motherfucker's neck get to hurt and this shit,
then I get my little recline chair
just, you know, kick my feet up,
and they're getting yesterday and get to that thing.
Wow.
But, yeah, especially back then I was always on the floor right,
and it's just, it's a piece of mind
for me to lay on my belly and right.
Get the fuck out of it.
Get the fuck out of it.
So, where did that develop from, because...
Ah, man, I don't know.
Just being just drunk all the time.
Oh, my God.
You get you back on the floor
He said, lay on the floor
They had you cup right there
And just get out
Oh, oh, by the way
Let me keep it real
That night in Vegas
I never threw up that much
In my life
This makes a noise
8040
You're killing me
You destroyed me
And now I wanted to rematch
Right
I wanted to read
Wait, wait, wait, wait
Wait, wait, wait
In my mind
So when we're at the studio
What were drinking
We drink it?
Oh, you killed me again
You want to get straight to him?
Damn
You know I'm going to do it
It's two is it
Two is it!
At least with Snoop
Snoop smoked me out
and then I smoked him out, so it's one-one.
I've never got E-40.
And I came to my mind, I'm not going to keep trying.
It's over.
He won.
Two-zip.
I'm just leaving it.
But the second time was you came to the studio, and you said, this is what I drink when I write rhymes.
And I'm looking, you got a big gallon of Carlo Rossi.
Burgundy, Carlottie.
Burgundale.
Big-ass jug costs $8.
$8.
Nigger going to kill you, you drink that shit, my nigger.
And you drink it, it's cool.
You drink it.
And then 10 minutes later
You are like
Why the fuck did I just drink this $8 a gallon of wine
Let's make some noisy 840 got that
You were drinking
Pino Grigio
And your uncle was there
He had his hat to the side
That's right
That's right Uncle Wai
You're a real player in you
Yeah yeah
You're talking about
So E40 right
You're known as a drinker
How does this happen
That you
Because your first thing was the wine
Correct?
Yeah
So how does this happen?
Because you're in the Bay Area?
Nah, nah, man, let me tell you.
So, you know, Mons raised four of us, right?
I was the oldest of four.
And it was three boys, one girl.
So mine's working two and three jobs.
So on the weekend, she had come home, she'll have her some Rossi.
It was Colorado Rossi.
It's called Colorado Rossi Rhine.
Right?
That's the white one.
Yeah, that's the white one.
Yeah.
So I just see her, you know, she'll play her old school jams and whatnot, not going there
chop it up with her. You know, she's going through
it, you know, pops had, her
and her, pops had divorced when I was eight years
old. So, you know, I'm telling her, so
we moved over to the hillside.
And so we're there, man, and she
just drinking, and so it's just, I just started
getting, you know, sneaking in it late,
you know, I was like,
what, wine? Kids, do kids listen to this?
Oh, we don't know. Oh, I was real
young. It's not our fault. I was young, and I sneak into
it, you know, she kept it there.
You know, even while she going to work, so I'm like,
I like, I like this. So, you know, so as I
I just kept drinking it
And then I go to the liquor store
And go get the burgundy one
And the jugs
And you know
It's enough for the host
Like a couple of jugs of Rossi
Them big ass motherfuggers

It has everybody here
Turned for like $20
And fuck your carpet up
Because you spill your carpet up

And salt on them up
Or yeah
You know what I'm gonna get it up
You know what I'm talking about
But yeah
Yeah so then I'm man
You know just didn't
The grit didn't quit
And then I got the name
E4
on Magazine Street, drinking 40 ounces of Old English.
So I'm my partner, Derek Jones.
He out there with me.
Big of Derek Jones.
Yeah, shout to Derek Jones, man.
And we used to down the motherfuckers, like, have a drinking contest.
Like, who can down it at the fastest.
So I downed that motherfucker.
And he's already called me E because my first name, Earl.
So I doubt that shit.
He just, 40.
That's how you got the name?
That's how I got my name, genuinely.
Let's make some noise.
Let's find out how you got it.
So, but your first alcohol company was Earl Stevens, correct?
Yeah, that's the first one at launch, the Earl Stevens wine.
You know, I'm out there in Wine Country.
I'm in the 707, that's the area code.
Can you say 707 backwards?
707?
Yeah, that's what I'm fun.
It's a lot of balancing that right there.
Let's make some noise for me catching that Earl.
Usually it'll take me 10 minutes to catch that.
So you in wine country.
Yeah, so it's right next door.
I'm from Vallejo.
Vallejo.
Yeah, as soon as you leave out of Vallejo, like.
one more time?
I like the way to say,
Blahaw.
Pop your collar.
Everybody in the room,
find your collar,
goddammit.
Don't make noise.
Fight your collar,
goddain.
Everybody, go ahead.
Yes, sir.
And so, you know,
it's right there.
So, you know,
we got the wineries
and all that stuff out there.
So one of my pilots,
he was like,
folly, man,
they got some people
that can, you know,
bottle up your wine
and woo-w-wop-woo.
Right.
So I said,
fuck it.
So I wanted to go visit them
and I was like,
okay,
they let me taste a few little things.
I put a little twist
with this and this, then the third, and then I started selling it online.
And so the demand was real big.
Everybody was like, man, we're going to get it at the store.
So it was just one store in Venetia, which is right next to Valle, too,
that would go get the cases and take it to their store and start selling it.
So then I said, fuck it, we're going to go talk to the distributor.
So the distributor, Southern Wiener Spirit, which is now Southern Glazers and Spirits,
the biggest distributors, it's not, now they're big.
They're already big, but now they're huge.
Because they got your shit in Costco.
Yeah, it's in Costco, safe ways, you know.
And so.
So you went to the distribute, okay.
Yeah, so I went to the distributor and they fucked with it.
They seen the demand.
I showed them all the papers and all that and all that, you know, went online and all that, the paperwork and all that.
And so that's how it all right.
And then I started going by the science.
The wine first.
And this was a success?
Yeah, that's a success.
Yes, sir.
So then what happened?
How did you go and say, I'm going to bring Alizet back out?
No, you know what?
It's just the color.
It's just the color of Alizzee.
It's not even the color.
If you really...
But what is this?
This is a lot.
This is like a headache, though.
I'm going to keep it a hundred.
No, it's not.
This is a known drink.
This is a really known drink.
I didn't make it up.
It's just up under Slurricane's...

We've never heard of R2D.
That's how you know he's rich for a reason.

So I'm at Grandma State University.
Wait up.
Let's make some noise for the making short stories.
Gotcha!
Listen, listen, whenever somebody tell me,
they'd be like, yo, you make all the slang and hip-hop.
I said, nah, man, 40 come first.
The original.
I always say that.
I always say that.
Yeah, no.
It makes me better, you know, because you know why?
You're my OG.
Slang make the world go round.
Everybody don't say something slick.
You know what the crazy shit is?
People ask me, because, you know,
slime, slime. Whenever a nigga
say slum, I was the first person on
hip hop to say slum. That's my shit, right?
Hater raid, there's other
things. People always be like, why you ain't patting that shit?
I said, because slang ain't, shouldn't be bad.
Yeah, yeah, for real. For everybody.
It's for everybody. It's for everybody.
So, we used to go to a spot
called The Village. So in the Village,
you can be 18 and steal by liquor
at the time in Louisiana.
So I show my idea, I'm 18 years old.
They had these slush form
like Dacherees. You know,
You know what I'm saying, that you can buy.
Like Red Willie's in Miami.
Right.
And it was Hurricane.
It was called Hurricane.
There's a real, Hurricane been around, shit, probably before I was born.
We got to do you.
They get the door.

Go, go, go, good.
That's probably the house of towels.
Oh, they brought the big-ass towel.

That's the shit with the bubbles?
I mean, this is something to hit somebody.
All right, fuck it.
Yeah, keep going on.
That's squarkling?
Nah, it's all good.
All over this.
No, that's all the fucking.
Most of the time it is, yeah, yeah.
I like carbonation in my shit, man.
This thing is mad smart.
This thing is just in carbonation.
You know, I'm talking with the beer.
This is shit, and I don't drink beer.
The beer go crazy, brad.
No, I'm just saying I was like that.
That's fine.
It's a crap.
I used to see back in the day.
Years later, so I'm drinking that.
So that's when the first time I heard a hurricane.
Hurricane.
So then we go to, me and Bila and D-Shod and Sugar Tea.
We're out there in Arkansas.
We go to this club out there, and we were drinking,
we was on a little lightweight tour for like about three weeks or something.
And we go to, we go up in the club, and we're going to perform.
We have been drinking gin and juice.
Back then, gin and juice was the shit.
It was like, that's all everybody drunk.
We're drinking that shit for like three weeks straight,
nine-stop, every day.
So if you drink something so long,
You just get, it don't get you high no more.
Exactly.
Right.
So I go to the bar, I say, excuse me, you got something that'll get us, you understand me, warped?
Right?
Warped.
Yeah, yeah, warped.
She was like, I got the perfect thing for you.
And she made us a hurricane, a hurricane, right?
We drunk that, motherfucker.
We didn't know what it was.
I knew it tasted familiar, but I never had it in a liquid form.
I'm listening.
You feel what I'm saying?
So we drunk that shit, towed a whole house down with the show, came back to her.
I said, excuse me, what the fuck?
was that you gave us, she just, it was called Hurricane, right?
So I say, I knew that that tastes hella familiar.
Can you give me the recipe?
So we started drinking it, you know, that's how we did it.
We wrote the whole, I got five on it, remix, all of them was in that motherfucker.
Perkins, all of his own hurricane.
He just cares about.
So I read, because it had, it would get you so tall because it's got the hurricane got
150, 151 in it.
You know what I mean?
That's like, right, we're talking about, yeah.
They use that wheat liquor over there.
It'll get you fucked up.
So we, that's when I start calling the slurricane.
You feel what I'm saying?
So anyway, that's when I came with that, the slurricane.
Then I came with this yellow bird shit right here.
This shit hell of tasty, too, and it's rum-based.
You know what I'm talking about?
Oh, so it's a different liquor?
It's got that Galliano flavor in it and Grandma Yeh flavor in it as well.
All right, so the blue one is vodka-based.
This rum-based.
The yellow one is rum-based.
What's the red one?
That's rum-based.
The red is rum-based, too.
But they all got different flavor.
These are real drinks that's at the bar that you can really go ask for.
But they already eat the bottom.
Yeah, I just bottled up and put it up and put it up on the
thing put my twist to it.
You feel me?
The slurricane, I made up
the name Slurricane. You feel me?
Okay. From Hurricane to Slurricane.
Okay, so now
the wine, you hit the wine,
we hit the Slurricane, but then
you went for the market that nobody else
is targeting
malt liquor since St. Oz.

You don't need to drink that no more
It ain't gonna get you right
This is 10%
This shit got a hint of honey
It's good
Everything that I do I do it from the flow up man
You feel me?
I'm part of the packaging and everything
I would
I would reveal my
My tequila
My vodka
And my whiskey that I got coming
But I'm not gonna do it just yet
I'm gonna come back on the show
If you'll let me
You don't have his own liquor store
And we're gonna drink all your shit too
That's correct
I'm on the case
though, bro. So, you know, this is, I don't really
even call it. It's a malt, but it's a craft
mark, because it's a different taste in all. It tastes good.
I'm drinking. I don't drink beer. It tastes.
I think I'm going to have some with you, bro.
Oh, God damn.
Look, did he just say a craft mall?
I don't even know what that means. I know what it sounds like.
He made, he made a mocked.
He made a fucking motherfucker right now.
You know, look at it. Look at this packaging, man.
No, that's right.
That's false.
That is false. That is false.
That is right. So now,
840, man.
Yes, sir. Yes, sir.
There's not a lot of people who could say
they hung out with Tupac
There's not a lot of people who could say
Tupac was my friend
And even if they can say it
Tupac didn't say it back
Right
Tupac really claimed you
You really fucked with him
How was it me in Tupac?
Like what was the first time?
Pock was a product of the bay too
I first heard him
Chop me out on the
What was that?
The niggas album
The first one
Strictly for my next
He shouted out, he said,
he shout out, he shout out, he shout out,
E40 in the click.
Like, I said, oh man, Tupac,
we're young, we just, you know, we're up and coming.
He's already on kind of, you know what I'm saying?
But we like, we, we ain't mainstreamed yet or nothing.
Like, the world, the world knew it,
the soils, all the hoods and shit, they knew it.
But it was like we was just rising.
It was, we was independent.
We didn't have my distribution deal with Jive
or nothing that shit at the time.
Right.
And that was 1991, 92.
So when he did that, it just, you know what I mean,
that was a good feeling.
And then my boy double R, Richie Richie Rich,
familiar with Richie Rich.
Yeah, Richie Rich.
So Richie Rich had called me.
He said, man, because he was already cool with Pock, you know what I'm saying?
And he was like, Rich.
I mean, he said, 40, man.
Pac wanted me to give you his number.
He wanted to fuck with you, man.
He gave me his number and we connected.
There he says then.
It was all love.
Right.
Yes, sir.
So y'all connected.
And then, like, how many records y'all did together?
Let's see.
I got an unreleased track that ain't, that we're working on right now.
God damn.
And then we did.
Are you still talking to him?
I'm fucking with you.
stupid. I was
I was like, Dan, it's my
liquor's good.
When he did say, we're working on now.
I'm like, this, you...
I was talking about what, you know...
Because people are still thinking he alive.
Yeah, yeah.
People's really...
You know, nigga hit me the other day and said.
I wish he was alive, man, but I don't think he would sit up here
and stand for the sucker shit that's right in the industry
right now.
That's make you back there.
Let's make too much today.
Mr. Lee, where's the salsa water?
Where's the salsa water?
Where's the salsa water?
You don't need that shit.
Oh, that.
That, all right, I'll drink.
You drink this beer, you don't need that.
He got coffee and they just sailed to all that shit in it, man.
Come on, 41.
So, um, yeah, we recorded Mad Records together.
And we asked Uncle Luke this.
I think we asked Snoop this.
Yeah.
Um, but what was the Pock that you, you enjoyed more?
The Pock.
And Luke had an interesting take on, the Blunt Rowling, Hennessy drinking Pock.
Mm, but on DeFroll?
Before DeFro.
Now, he said, both.
He was the same with me at every time.
You know what I'm saying?
You know what I'm saying?
It was all love, man.
If he fuck with you, he'd fuck with you.
If he don't fuck with you, he'll call you out.
He'll say your name and everything.
He'll get to fuck.
That's what he specializes in.
He's going to, he say, fuck that.
I'm saying names.
Ain't none of that, you know, sneakdistance shit.
You feel me?
So I had to give it to him on that.
But he had a reason for all the shit, you know, he was saying.
He wasn't crazy.
He wasn't crazy.
No, he was going to do a lot of shit.
So what's your favorite, Tupac, me?
You tell me.
Oh, man.
Your favorite time being around Park.
I got a few of them, but I know y'all probably seen it on, um, on you.
In 1993, we had my practice looking hard video shoot.
And he entered through the whole video like this.
You know, just, you know, he had that middle finger attitude.
That's classic pop shit, too.
Fuck you.
But the thing is that he showed motherfuckers how to, this one Blunts wasn't really, y'all
had been fucking with Blunts.
In New York, you know, because I'm, my partner from New Jersey, when I was at Grandma's State University,
he night to fall 8687
he uh this motherfucker
take a philly blunt
and the way he did it it was a full
blunt you know what I'm saying and he had gutted
he had just take all the shit out of it and then
stuff it with some boo-boo weed right
because that's all we had at ground with some boo-boo weed
right right right so he stuffed that motherfucker and
and tied it up like that you know what I mean
wet it up and that's how they did it back that
that was the first time I ever seen a blunt
road right so Pock you know what I'm saying
he's on my video shooting he's sitting on
the little bench I'm over there smoking a
Beattie. I don't know if y'all know with a
Yeah, Biddy.
As soon as you said Bini,
as soon as you said Bini, it's the headache.
That's a headache. Bini. Yeah, yeah.
He smoked a lot of those. Yeah, yeah, yeah, back in the
thing. That was cool.
I'm over there smoking the Biddy. He over there rolling. He showed
he got the camera on him. He over there showing
him how to smoke a roll a blunt and shit and he got
fingernails in, he tearing the paper apart.
You know what I'm saying? He said, smoke black for black.
I don't want to see y'all smoking that white shit. You smoke black for black.
That's how you roll a blunt. Go look
at the footage. Y'all can pull it up.
Tupac rolling a blunt
E40 video
It was just classic shit
You know
That's one of many
But that was my nigger man
I wish he was alive
Brother trust me

You and Biggie had problems
That's not a rumor
That's real right

They said something like that
Let's just
Everybody know
Everybody know that story.
I don't want to bring it.
No, no, no.
Let me tell you what it is.
Let me tell you what it is.
Yeah, okay.
It's like every time I talk about it, it seemed like they, you know, you know, Biggie had a lot of motherfuckers that love him too.
Right.
Big fans, you know what I mean?
The nigger was a great rapper.
Right.
All right.
So, it's like every time we talk about it's like, I'm telling people to bring it up.
The fans, Twitter, Instagram, they get at me like, man, why are you going to bring that up?
I don't never bring it up.
I ain't never brought it up to nobody ever in life, period.
Not even a nigga that's on YouTube talking about the shit
They brought that shit
I didn't even say nothing
I don't talk like that
It's all hush mouth for me on shit
You feel me
I ain't no bragging assing of none of that shit
But I don't know personally
So I would like to ask you
And God bless you that too
We just want to know
I wish he was alive too
Brother
I think hip hop would be more line too
Let's make some noise
Let's make some noise
Let's make some noise
Let's make some love
I think so
But what happened though
Like he came to the bay
He was in Sacramento
I didn't even know
You got him out there, right?
And, like, y'all brought him out of them?
No, no, no.
It was some people I knew, but I didn't know.
I didn't even know the motherfuckers had him out there.
Because they didn't promote it right or some shit.
But they hit me at 11 o'clock, something like that night.
They were like, man, I got the...
First of all, the way...
I didn't have nothing against him.
I know.
I know him.
I know him like that.
But he had gotten...
So it's after the Pock shit, the shit that had happened at Quas Studio.
No, this is what rate were for?
This was...
This was...
What year was this, man?
I don't know.
I forgot, man.
But anyway, you can do your dudeilums.
This is all in the net and shit.
Yeah, yeah.
Anyway, so the thing is that, what do he do?
He, uh, awesome magazine.
It was a magazine, a Canadian magazine dude that did interviews in.
And they said they got him drunk just like you, motherfuckers.
Uh-huh.
They said he got him hell of drunk.
Right.
Damn, we're fucking up.
They got a hell of drunk and start asking him on a scale from one to ten.
You know, from one to ten, uh, who do you, you know, who you rate this?
Like he said, spice.
ones and ice cubes
like everybody in the industry
that was somebody
and he got to my name
and he's all
man that's big boo-boo
he's whack man
he got he gets
give him a zero
you know what I'm talking about
mind you
I'm wearing cangles
in high school
I'm almost 49 years old
You feel me
So I've been wearing kangals
You know what I'm saying
All that shit
Just so happy that
Didn't the dude had
The kind of same
kind of swag I had
Like you know
Coogee
Coogee shirts was
sweaters was in
for sasha all
and we just you know
that was the shit
when you were a tycoon
and you're fucking with it
you know what I'm saying
he was just on the west
he was on the east coast
I'm on the west coast
so I don't know
if that's what had him
saying the nigger's zero
but my my style is
unorthodox
so the motherfuckers
that can't catch it
they catch it later
because I say a lot of shit
that it ain't just slang
just the shit I say
you know what I'm
so it's kind of ahead of its time
you know
then they're like oh man
because this fans
that I got right now
that's diehard that didn't
understand me
they said me when I was younger
I just
thought you was wack, but as I started
listening more and more and living
the life and going through this, that and the third,
I'm like, my nigga, you're the best
ex-ciferate. Right. You feel me? So, to make
a long story short, man, so dude,
so everybody had
got wind of the shit, you know what I'm telling about.
And that's what, as far as him dissing me
in that magazine. So my
little dudes, they were all hot and shit too.
So they just so happen to sneak up to Sacramento.
You know what I'm talking about? I guess the dude
they threw the show, he was out there. They
called me at 11-something at night.
Forty, what you want me to do with this nigga, woo-w-w-w-w-w-w-di-woo.
And I told him, I put the nigga on the phone.
You feel me?
Like that.
So I put him on the phone and whatnot.
And we chopped it up.
And he was like, man, Foti, you know, man.
Look, man, I was drunk, man.
But I fuck with you, Duke.
You know what I'm saying?
I fuck with Foti.
Y'all heard the story before and all that.
No, I'm so glad nothing happened to him.
You know what I mean?
I didn't want that on my watch.
So you wasn't even there physically.
Even if I would have seen it, I wouldn't have tried to knock him down.
You feel me?
It wasn't nothing.
and I see him later on week
we chopped it up
matter of fact
I was supposed to be
on this last album
life after death
wow
yeah I could see that too
if you go
if we
if we find the actual
physical copy
back then we did
shoutouts

go look in there
and it's going to say
shout out to E40
you feel what I'm saying
so that shit
was done with man
right
you feel me
like that
yeah let's make
some noise
for that
yeah
you know what
I had actually
To tell you the truth,
840, I had actually never actually heard the story.
I heard the rumor.
Like, rumors.
The pieces of it.
Yeah, oh, by the way, I didn't set it up.
I meant to say that.
I definitely.
And that's on everything I love.
Right.
And I don't lie like that.
And I don't play with God.
Right.
They didn't set that up.
Nah, right.
Because that's the rumor.
The rumor was always been that it was a set up.
Hey, a phony nigger?
A phony nigger that's trying to be having a hard day.
Trying to claim that shit.
Right.
You know what I'm saying?
I ain't, I ain't going to claim it.
I ain't going to act like I, you know what I mean, said that shit out.
But the rumor was he came to the Bay area and he couldn't leave unless he spoke to E4.
He wasn't even the Bay.
He was in Sacramento, which is Northern California.
It's Northern California, but it's not the Bay.
God damn California.
That's my, that's my, that's my, that's my, that's my mom, Tito M5.
What's up, what you all?

Don't break his neck with that shit.
I'm going to let you rock that motherfucker.
Yeah, yeah, for the rest of the interview.
Let me see.

It's an OG.
Remember the back in the 80s?
In my mind, I'm like that.
That's a throwback chain.
It's just one of one.
God.
Listen, listen.
Let me tell you something.
All you guys who rock fake jury.
You cannot, you cannot rock fake jury and put this on.
This is real.
That's go-boo-ya.
What is this?
What is this?
That's OG Bezatee.
You know what I'm talking about from way back of the days.
Kind of like in the same.
That's way back Egypt.
Same category as like a, who was that shit we used to rock?
Oh, my God.
Turkish.
Same, like the cousin of the Turkish.
Is that Ali?
Ali's from Iran.
Yeah.
Now, shout out the mug back there.
Oh, you from Turkey.
Hugs, no.
No, no.
We used to rock them,
we used to rock them Turkish back in the days
out here on the West Coast real heavy.
So I just, you know,
King Jody Neme, my boy, shout out to Ice Man Nick,
you know what I mean?
Ice Man, Nick, I did, I did, they did that.
And we didn't talk about King, we ain't talking about Johnny.
Shout out to him, too, but I'm talking about...
TV Johnny?
Not TV Johnny.
Okay.
King Johnny.
You know, all the, you know, all this tycoon shit.
You know what I mean?
The Rick Rosses and all that.
They do all our jury and shit like that.
Now do you bring up Rick Ross?
Isn't Rick Ross?
on the Bay, the railroad cross, isn't he?
No, he's in L.A. He's from L.A.
He's from L.A., but he's got money in the Bay, correct?
He got money all over California all over the country.
So, is this rumor true?
Did crack really originate in the Bay Area?
Man, that's what I don't know.
You don't know that?
I think it originated in New York?
No.
We don't want to claim it either.
In the Pentagon?
Is it originally in the Pentagon?
Listen, listen.
All right, hold on. Time out.
Reagan brought crack.
Yeah.
Listen, listen, it's
We just, our podcast is over
You don't want to put that motherfucker in the soil, man.
This is political.
Give it to them niggins, man.
There's only two people that,
there's only two places that crack can actually
arrive in.
And it's New York or California.
Is that correct to say California?
Because that's the whole thing.
I think it had to probably hit California
first.
That's what the people I'm saying.
What did you think?
Not California?
New York.
I heard it was in the heights.
Miami.
Some of the people tell me the Heights.
And then they say the Heights.
No, they say the Dominicans in the Heights.
Oh, my Dominican.
Where's Mr. Lee?
Brothers tell me it was the heights.
Mr. Lee.
But you know what?
Your nickname, you don't want to brought it.

We distribute the East Coast.
In Miami, in Miami, yeah, yeah.
New York, that's what it is.
It's just, each state takes a certain license, you know what I mean,
certain requirements and whatnot.
So I'm slowly, but surely I'm getting my shit everywhere, you feel me?
So where you at right now?
What states are you in that?
Shoot, it's a point.
The wine isn't a lot of them.
Yeah, different ones are different.
Yeah, so I'm in, I'm in Oklahoma.
Because you're in Costco's with the wine, right?
Yes, sir.
I'm in a lot of the Costco's.
Let's not say that like that's lightly.
No, that's Costco, man.
You got to buy that by the crazy.
This nigger, this is my nigga.
I got his phone number.
I just got it.
This niggas in Costco with one.
I know a nigga that's selling shit in Costco.
It makes them noise.
Yeah, yeah.
I only knew, I don't even knew that sold shit on 57 a app or 1-5-7 in Girard in the Bronx.
And now I know a nigga that's selfish in Costco
When you push your weight
He didn't get Costco weight
And he's a lot of his chain is hurting me
Well I'm a big ass motherfucker chain
I'm gonna have a bruise after that
Yeah that's cool
So look so I did a bottle sign that shit
In Sacramento at Costco
That shit went there was
It's on YouTube go to E40 TV
And you'll see all that shit man
You feel me
Because I'm a big fan of Costco
Yeah I just came back from Kansas City
Who said that? I don't know
I am in Kansas City
I just had two truckloads of the beer delivered
Right
So Kansas City
often to go crazy with the beer.
I just did a bow signing out there.
They already had the slurring all my wines
in the slurricane,
Blue Lagoon, Yellowbird, and
the slurricane, hurricane, right?
This thing is good.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Yeah, man, I'm focused.
It's a lot of money on the table, I think.
Yeah, yeah.
Hey, man, let me tell you something, man.
This is where it's that, bro.
How about the action?
What do you prefer, liquor or hip-hop?
Both, because they both pay me.
I'm independent.
Right.
My deal.
That's my next question, yeah.
Yeah, yeah.
My deal was 83-17, so 83% of my bread, of the bread comes to me.
Is the alcohol deal or is the music deal?
This is music.
Okay, okay.
Oh, I get paid on the alcohol real heavy, but I'm just saying,
you can still get paid when you're independent.
See, we got to slow it down for a listen.
They might be drinking.
Time on, we got to slow it down.
Did you just say you get paid 83?
87?
I never even heard that cut.
83-17.
It's an odd-ass line.
I didn't even know that existed.
It's a press.
It's a pressing and distribution deal.
You know what I'm talking about?
You make your own product, and then you give it to them.
They press it up.
And they press it up.
They press it up.
I make it and I make it and I deliver it to them.
That's what I mean.
All the features you ever had.
That's what the present and distribution is there.
Yon says out there.
P&D means pressing and distribution.
Let's make some noise for niggas breaking the deal.
We're trying to teach y'all, man.
Drink and learn.
So it's been a known rumor that the Bay Area was the first, like,
independent companies. That's where Master P came
to get this shit started.
How did y'all develop that mind frame
of just... First of all, I want to
shout out Master P because, you know, the boy's staying
in Bel Air and shit. I've seen some shit. He's
walking through the neighborhoods. He comes straight
from what we're at. You know what I mean? He comes from
the Bay. Well, you know, by way
up, Richmond, California, right
there. Um, he's, he's
he's, you know, he's from New Orleans, right?
But I think his mama
or his daddy stayed at his
family. I think it was the mama. Yeah, yeah.
He had a few record shops
and whatnot, how he did.
But the boy, you know what I'm saying?
He always was solid with me.
And he was always, he stayed focused, you know.
And he got a lot of his game for my uncle St. Charles
just as well as I did.
And we all learned together, you know what I'm saying?
Him and the JT bigger figures of the world and stuff like that.
We all come up under the same little umbrella and whatnot.
He went out there and got there south, man.
He went to the sticks where it was an untapped territory, man,
and got them boys there was so many talented people out there
and got them to get on that down south hustlers
and you know what I'm talking about he did that bout it about it
and the ice cream man and he blew and he blew man did his thing
so he can't knock a man's hustle so I want to shout him out for that
you know what was the independent thing
in the Bay Area he got that from the Bay Area he got it from the Bay
he definitely got it from the Bay right and he I don't think he'd have any
problem saying he did no yeah most definitely
but he also he also you understand me he was an innovator in it too as well
because he took it to bigger heights.
God got levels where he blesses you.
So, you know, you just got to know when you're blessed.
You know, some people he might have, you know, two, three hundred million.
Some people might be 500,000.
Some 30,000 might be rich to a hood guy.
Right.
You're saying, you just never know.
So you just got to just keep moving, man, and don't hate.
You know what I'm saying?
Never hate, man, because it'll come back on you.
You feel me?
Bad karma.
But how did the Bay Area actually develop being in, because all of y'all was independent in the Bay Area?
We didn't have no choice.
That's why because all the record labels was in New York.
New York, yeah.
And then New York only wanted to invest in, like, L.A.
It's like NYC and upstate New York.
Like, that's how I felt about the Bay.
The Bay felt like there was the underdogs of L.A.
We had to go in there and work for ours, make the motherfuckers fill us, man.
Right.
You feel me?
We really had to go in there.
We did the real independent grid.
And this was without a, this is when we had a small, we had one-stop.
So, one-stop is a small distributor.
Hold on.
Big up my nigga, one-stop.
Yeah.
I know you are selling drugs somewhere
I don't know who that is
He sells a lot of drugs
You're talking about somebody else
Yeah, you're talking about the person
We're talking about the distribution company
He's my nigga
He's my nigga
He's my nigga
He sold me a lot of ecstasy in my ecstasy
I don't take energy anymore
But at one point
84 them, I'm sorry
Yeah, yeah, yeah
So I think a lot of ecstasy
Did you?
At one stop
Sometimes I still look for access
I'm gonna be in a lot
You know what I'm talking about
Take a Molly?
No man
You're not take a Molly one time
We didn't ask for all man
I'm good.
Just to make sure
that's wrong.
Now, you can't think
Amali and Slurricane.
They'll be fucked up.
Hey, let everybody do
what they want to do.
Weed and alcohol is all I need.
I'm going to be honest.
But look, look, let's get back on the subject,
man.
Yeah, go to be right.
Let me just play that one stop
so they don't think
I'm talking about the drug deal.
Yeah, yeah, that's my nigga.
It's two different subjects.
I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry,
change your name, nigga.
The one stop we dealt with was music people.
Okay, also we had,
which is, it was a defunct right now,
but now we have,
they also have city hall records.
Walter and that's a that's a that's like a one-stop distributor too so they was our main
hub so we were sent out packages one-sheets and whatnot and uh one-sheets is just so
happen I said one-stop and one-sheet is a one-sheet is with all the information on it
you know what that is right of the barcode and everything so you send them out
with the cassette or the CD at the time and you send it out to all the um mom-and-pop
stores because mom-and-pop stores was big back the heart of it was the heart of the
soil you feel me so you send them out to all over the place I'm talking about the
Nebraska, Atlanta, Oklahoma, Kansas City, everywhere, you feel me?
Right.
And you put their music in that, motherfucker, and they, and you say, and we used to give them five tapes.
Here, take these and just sell them.
Y'all can have the money, and then let us know when you want to order.
Man, that motherfuckers all ordered right as soon as they flew, and they ordered from the one-stop, from our one-stop.
So that was our main hub, and that's how the whole shit started, you know what I'm saying, cooking.
My uncle, St. Charles, had a book this big of distributors.
Just before computers was, you know what I'm talking about?
They were on the Internet and shit.
So he just made his own manual book.
Like doing decimal shit.
Yeah, he did his due diligence and got all the mom and pop stores, all the distributors, everything.
So you had that prior to Jive?
Yeah, this before Jive.
This was made Jive come out to me.
Okay, yeah, I want to get Jive.
They came out to us.
They came very wise.
Am Brinks came to me because he was two shows already on John.
Hold on his name of Rich Niggas.
This niggas name is a rich niggas right now.
Go ahead and Banks is a legendary producer, man.
They have a hell of platinum, all that.
I did a lot of work with Too Short and myself and a whole bunch of money.
So who was signing the John first?
It was too short, correct?
It was too short.
He was first.
They signed to him in, I think, 88, 89.
I've had the crazy roster.
God, yeah, the Crazy roster.
Well, yeah, you got signed.
I did my distribution deal with them in 1994 March.
Let's make some noise for 1994 being rich.
And niggas is getting million-dollar deals then.
Niggas ain't getting million right now.
No, but see, my thing is this.
You was distribution.
I was the first one to have a so-called million-dollar deal like that.
on that page like you like hell of bread like
but see the thing is I wanted
because you was moving units independent
correct? Yeah so my thing
was I was telling between 150 to 200,000
independent and solo which is
selling on your own. Each project on my own
without no business. Niggas can't sell 150 right now
with a small distributor of one stop. You was doing
that in the beginning. I was doing that at the beginning
with no label. So when we did
our deal with Jai that
I was paid on 200,000
with a pressing a distribution deal so
that's the first two and
Then it'll kick it to a high royalty after that
Because I wasn't tripping.
I was like, okay, kick in the machine
After that $200,000
Because that's what I've been getting anyway.
So kick in the machine
So they kick in the machine
That's when they took it to the golden platinum status.
You feel me?
So that's how that thing goes, man.
The grit don't quit.
Now, just so y'all know,
E40 being a lot of money for a long time.
Let's make some noise
for him get a lot of money for a long time.
Isn't your neighbor Gary Payton?
Yep.
God damn it.
You live next to Gary Payton.
I live next to Jaru.
That's good.
Jari.
I live next to Jose.
We didn't have some...
We probably still got money, shit.
And I lived next to Birdman at one point.
Did you?
Yeah, does that mean?
Birdman came to my house one time, right?
Go ahead.
Birdman said, he pulled up, right?
Yeah, all the boys kept pulled up.
They had a little show in Oakland.
And so they came, I said, it's going to be a tour bus coming.
I called the main gate.
I say, there's going to be a tour bus coming in.
Let's make a noise for him living in the Gated community.
Yeah, that's great, go ahead.
So Burm had come up.
I made room for him.
I said, man, I told my neighbor, I said, it's going to be a blue.
big-ass bus and shit.
I told GP, I said,
it's going to be Birdman there.
So Birdman, he, so I let him in the gate.
In my other gate, he came in.
He just, other gate.
He had Mad Gates.
He said, damn, Paul,
it looked like you eating motor beans and rice up in this motherfucker.
Adventure should never come with a pause button.
Remember the movie pass era,
where you could watch all the movies you wanted for just $9?
It made zero cents, and I could not stop thinking about it.
I'm Bridget Todd, host of the tech podcast, there are no girls on the internet.
On this new season, I'm talking to the innovators who are left out of the tech headlines.
Like the visionary behind a movie pass, black founder Stacey Spikes, who was pushed out of movie pass, the company that he founded.
His story is wild and it's currently the subject of a juicy new HBO documentary.
We dive into how culture connects us.
When you go to France, or you go to England, or you go to Hong Kong, those kids are wearing.
Jordans. They're wearing Kobe's shirt. They're watching Black Panther. And the challenges of
being a Black founder. Close your eyes and tell me what a tech founder looks like. They're not going
to describe someone who looks like me and they're not going to describe someone who looks like you.
I created There Are No Girls on the Internet because the future belongs to all of us. So listen to

Private, we'll explore the untold experiences of women of color who faced it all, childhood trauma,
addiction, abuse, incarceration, grief, mental health struggles, and more, and found the
shrimp to make it to the other side. My dad was shot and killed in his house.
Yes, he was a drug dealer.
Yes, he was a confidential informant, but he wasn't shot on a street corner.
He wasn't shot in the middle of a drug deal.
He was shot in his house, unarmed.

Sometimes it's hard to remember, but...
Going through something like that is a traumatic experience,
but it's also not the end of their life.
That was my dad, reminding me and so many others who need to hear it,
that our trauma is not our shame to carry,
and that we have big, bold, and beautiful lives to live after what happened to us.
I'm your host and co-president of this organization,
Dr. Leitra Tate.
On my new podcast, The Unwanted Sorority,
we weighed through transformation to peel back healing and reveal what it actually looks like.
and sounds like in real time.
Each week, I sit down with people who live through harm,
carried silence, and are now reshaping the systems that failed us.
We're going to talk about the adultification of black girls,
mothering as resistance, and the tools we use for healing.
The unwanted sorority is a safe space, not a quiet space.
So let's walk in.
We're moving towards liberation together.
Listen to the unwanted sorority, new episodes every Thursday,
on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your
podcasts.
I'm Noah. I'm 13, and as you might have seen from the news, I got a podcast, and I
explain those fake headlines like your uncle would, like your cousin would if he actually
did the research.
Honestly, adults don't ask the right questions.
Now you know with Noah de Barroso is a show about influence.
Who's got it, how they use it, and what it means for the rest of you.
It's not the news.
It's what the news should be if someone Gen Z or Gen Alpha made it.
When I'm watching everything.
Majority of the youth, 18 through 24, say they trust Republicans more than Democrats to from the economy.
You kidding.
Politics is wild and I'm definitely not here to pay it, but I'm here to make sense of it.
Just what's happening, why it matters, and what it means for us.
Bring your brain.

Give me my slang back.
Because remember, this is the time, and I'm going to blow it up right now in front of everybody.
If you ever heard me say, you smell me, I got it from E40.
That first night I met you kept saying to, he didn't say you feel me.
He said, you smell me?
And he kept going like that in my mind.
I don't even know if you figured out of that.
No, and you smell me and then figodil me comes from that.
But you smell me as much.
where it started.
And I always gave him his props for that.
And I always want people to know that I got that from him.
The first day I made him for it, he said, you smell me.
And I actually did.
I said, you smell good.
Nick, you want me to smell you?
You smell good.
You smell good.
And then I took that shit back to the East Coast, and then Jim Jones picked it up.
There's other people who picked it up, but I was the person who broke your swing.

Oh, damn.
A fake diet.
What's on with this juice?
And we ain't juicing no more.
I juice.
I, you know, they're serving in a bottle now.
So you just get this shit when we can grab it.
Suji, whatever.
But we've got to be careful of the juices in the bottle
because some of them be there too long.
Right.
I look at the date every time.
Oh, look at you.
You're a smart nigga.
You remember I was trying to get you the loser?
Yeah, you remember.
That's my nigga.
I caught you every day.
Man, you were jogging and shit.
You was keeping up with your little, uh.
You had a little stiky, the Nike joined.
The Nike, yeah, yeah.
And then this guy, he comes in.
Oh, he fucked up.
Yeah.
He fucked up.
Yeah.
And he said, he's, and he's, and he's, and he's going to cross for every day.
You was like, man.
And when I like to drink, you know, I might throw some vodka in my
a little juice and whatnot.
Nah, I was a fucked-up.
No sense.
I was a fucked-up guy back there.
But look, just so you know
the zero carbs right here,
when you do the vodka
with the sultan water,
you can keep it going.
But that slurricane,
you got this.
Okay,
Ewan's short made an album.
And then earlier they just said,
you said something about
when the Loonies made five.
The remix.
So let me,
yeah, yes, sir.
Let me break this down first.
When short, it took me,
like,
I'm telling all the young,
man, you know, don't go make a disc record
just because a dude that's established
didn't get back with you when you wanted him to.
Because you made a disc record or he made a disrep?
No, no, no, no.
This is me in short talk.
I'm talking about me and short.
He talked about this on there.
He said at first year I had a little problems.
No, never had a problem.
We just never, no, because all his,
all the people he fuck with before rap,
I fuck with, you feel me, B.R.
Before rap, before rap, you know what I'm saying?
Yeah, before I had that album or anything out,
you know, the other shit.
You know what I'm going to fuck the street.
The street.
Yeah, yeah.
soil shit, man.
So now it's always
been love
It's just
He was a chain
I had to
I had to prove my
Yeah, I need my chain back
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah,
I gotta get this up,
I gotta get this up, I got to get that shit
help me.
Now get back to the 41, okay,
so look, so check gang, check gang, check gang,
check gang,
so,
so it took, it took a minute,
he was established,
it took a minute,
he was on job,
and shit,
I'm still in the pen,
I'm gonna climbing up the ladder,
you know what I'm talking about,
and, um,
And so I worked, so we didn't, we knew each other in the 80s.
But I couldn't, I never did a song with him until like 1996.
Oh, damn.
So when we did the song, and guess what?
Through that whole time, you know, I'm motherfuckers to be bitching and bickering and shit.
You know, your little young rappers and shit, if you ain't did nothing with him and then.
He always watched me, but I had to pay my dues.
I had to do, I did it on my own.
I had to show him.
See, I'm like, I'm not from the show me, state, Missouri, but I can show you better than I can tell you.
So I showed it.
You know what I'm talking about?
You see?
See what I'm saying?
So we ended up doing a song called
Rappers Ball shout out to Ambrance
because he made it unfold.
He brought me to beat me.
He's like, this is the one y'all want to do.
And it was a playover of short.
So this made it really be genuinely.
You know, it was real genuine.
Because it was a playover of short song,
Playboy Short.
So we did that motherfucker.
We got Casey from Joe to See on that motherfucker.
And the album sold 890,000 records.
Well past, gold.
Love is no much.
You feel what I'm talking.
It sounds like the podcast numbers.
He knows his numbers.
He can't sell those numbers right.
And every since then, we've been rocked.
We got gold and platinum shit together and all kind of shit.
That's my big brother.
And I salute him because I watched how he got out.
You understand me?
Because he was making tapes.
When I was 15 years old, my cousin, him used to come down from Oakland with his little dub tape.
Like, this is that short shit.
And this is the beginning of, you know, when you 14, 15, this is the beginning of your managedness.
You know what I'm talking about?
I'm getting managed with it.
So I'm knowing all of little.
You know, I'm living a life that he's talking
And all that shit, you feel me?
Right.
So that's how that unfolded.
Big up no Snapchat to win.
He's in the building.
You know, he came here with $100.
He don't got no money on him.
I got $106 right now, man.
He's 40.
So we've been rocking.
Go ahead, listen, I'm listening.
You told me, we was talking about something else.
It's okay.
We don't get a fuck.
No, we were talking about it.
Oh, five on it.
Let's get on the remix.
Five on that remix.
And by the way, my videos on World Star.
Did you shoot a video of your Patty record yet?
No.
Because I'm Patty.
He tried wanting to beat you.
You tried to beat me?
I tried to beat you to the video.
But the remix, this is how you're going to do it?
No, no, listen, listen.
You ain't got to explain shit.

Right now, as we speak, it has to be turned in on September 15th.
That's coming out in November 11th.
You know, I had to plug that.
In matter of fact, speaking of plugs,
I ain't going to go off message.
But I was the first rapper ever saying plug.
We could do some documentation and do some, do our diligence.
Oh, you published in a first one screaming that plug, shit.
First we were talking about triple beam scale,
talking about the drought season, all that shit, my nigga.
It's all on wax and it's all documented.
Oh, you bad publishing.
This is the 80s and the late 80s and early 90s.
So anyway, so we at Mike Dent's studio,

I said, so we got the big jugs of Arrowhead water, right?
We empty those.

With that in it, you feel me?

But so do you, because at the end of the day,

But, you know, E40 man,
you're one of the most

I ever met.
You've always been the same
from the exact moment I met you
to the exact moment right now.
Whatever you say is your word.
Yes, sir.
And your bond.
Your word is everything, man.

It just changed the way people think about me, you feel me?
I want to be a little young mustache.
Definitely taking a young mustache.
Yo, you was a young mustache.
How are you calling it?
You ain't even a fully goatee.
I didn't explain another slang.
When you keep saying perk,
obviously you mean drunk, right?
Yeah, I don't know what the fuck you're talking about.
Perking is.
You're like you're making perk a set.
No, no, no, no, no, no.
You know what?
I'm on a song called Popperperk, too.
But guess what?
And that's what the boy, boom, that shit slap hard, too.
But look, look, look, look, look.
Another word I coin slapping.

We call it drink.
It was from drinking, just drinking.
So we perking, man.
Man, I'm fucking been perking.

So on that remakes, I'm not talking about popping a perkinson.
I'm talking about perking off liquor.
That's what it is.
But then I was like, maybe he does a lot of Perkinsets.
I don't know.
I ain't ever did that shit in my life.
I don't want nobody doing it.
It's just I got on the song, but I played my position and talked about liquor.
Right, right, right.
That's where it comes.
That's what I started off saying from Perkins.
Perkin in the Bay Area and on the West Coast,
that means, you know, we're perking off drink.
So how about to say the same shit?
I'm not going to claim that.
I'm going to give that to, I would say,
kick to sneak and MacDray together
because both are mad to them.
They're going to keep to sneak.
Rest in peace, MacJet.

MacDray was from my city.
MacDray was from my city.
He's from the Creside up front of the hillside.

And then when he passed, everybody tried to get on him.
But we was fucking with him.

This is the thing that I wanted to say on stage last night.
Because last night is a lot of Mexicans.
I assume they came out for me.
I'm not sure.
Hey.
But when I play that Spanish music, they fucking can.
Yeah, fuck with it.
And all the Mexican people in the world,
all the Puerto Rican people in the world,
all the Cuban people in the world,
all the Salvadorians, you know, M.A. Thressee.

But listen, if you Spanish,
if you Latin,
you know, I just want to tell you
something. We are
black. We all are
come from the same region.
We come. This should not be
no separation.
And also,
if you are from the west coast,
if you are from the east coast,
if you are from down south,
or you're from up north, let me tell you something,
that is something that they set up
to divide us. Yep, for sure.
It's the same niggas in Compton,
the same niggas on Fillmore.
Same niggas on Philmore is the same niggas on 57 a half.
Same niggas on 57 a half is in Kendall.
Same niggas in Motherslandau.
We are all the same people.
We got to stop letting people divide us.
Right.
Because we're allowing that to happen.
And sometimes when you represent your hood and you say I'm from left rack
or you say I'm from Queensbridge or you divide something
because we're all from human.
I agree, Pippa.
We're all from human.
We are from human.
I don't know if.
that made sense, but I felt it. Anybody with a quarter of a brain should have caught that.
They should have caught that. Yeah, we're off a human, man.
Yeah, because I don't know if I use a cord off my brain sometimes. You use that shit.
I use it.
No, you know, he acted like, you know, but he didn't use it all the time.
Adventure should never come with a pause button.

new HBO documentary. We dive into how culture connects us. When you go to France, or you go to
England or you go to Hong Kong. Those kids are wearing Jordans. They're wearing Kobe's shirt.
They're watching Black Panther. And the challenges of being a Black founder.
Close your eyes and tell me what a tech founder looks like. They're not going to describe someone

Go on there and vote with your heart.
You know, go with your heart and your gut.
I'm going to vote for Hillary.
Okay.
That's what I'm going to do.
Donald Trump, to me, I made a song, people don't even know.
I made a song called Trump Change.
Because when my brother D-Shott was in Y, C-Y.A.
Was it a positive Trump song at that time?
Yeah, yeah.
It was about a, it was a motivation.
It was about a young nigga in the hood,
young youngsters making bread in the hood,
like wanting to be a tycoon like Donald Trump.
Right.
You know what I'm saying?
And so I didn't even know since I heard him.
I'm like, I always liked him all the way up until just recently.
I'm like, dude's saying a whole bunch of racist shit.
I'm like, what's all this shit about?
You know what I mean?
I didn't even know that.
Divide in the country like a motherfucker.
Yeah, my brother was telling me about, man, it's a real estate tycoon.
His name is Donald Trump, World War.
So I made a song called Trump Change.
It was called Trump Change.
It was on the gold album right now, Element and Surprise, Double Album, and the song was called Trump Change.
And on that song, I mentioned, I even said,
it, it was like, instead of, you know,
motherfuckers say chump change,
instead of chump change, I'm like, Trump change.
You feel what I'm saying?
So on the thing, the first one of the things I said,
hey, look, check again, y'all over there partying.
So one of the things I said was,
I said, Trump change?
At the beginning, I said Trump change.
Yeah, Donald Trump change.
I'm digging him up and everything,

40 for president
yo listen
not me
I want to be in addition
all right before we leave
can you run for
mayor though
shout out to our mayor
listen listen
because listen
let's just keep it real
Donald Trump
turned politics into a smack
DVD
so in order for us to make
Kanye West president
because that's what I'm doing
I'm trying to make Kanye West president
because I'm retarded
and this is my retargetment
my retargetment is
a retardant argument
okay
so my retargetment is
I want to make Kanye
U.S. President
in 20, whatever this is
but in order for us to do that
we need David Banner
to be mayor of Mississippi
we need Bumbee
to be mayor of
I think David Banner
I gotta tell y'all something
about David Banner
he wanted the most
solidest dudes
that I ever met
he wanted the realest
out of the seven I was talking about
he wanted them
motherfuckers. And I want to say
this. I need, is he really, is he
really running for mayor? No, I want to be
because he should. He said Dave Benz's wrong for man.
No, I told him. I told him. I told him. I told him. He should be
apologized. I would definitely, you understand me, be behind.
Who did the Mississippi for two days? My daddy from Mississippi.
You know what I'm saying? My daddy. Earl Stevens, he
from Mississippi. God damn. You feel what I'm saying?
So I, I love Dave Ben. So will you want for
mayor or the Ye area? Me personally, I don't know
if that's my position. That's hard.
You got to get up there. One thing I do. One thing I do.
Listen, let me
I rock with my community.
That's what I do.
Let me tell you why you're the perfect candidate,
because you've been with your wife for 20 years.
That alone makes you perfect.
These niggas can't be with.
I look at what they do to Obama,
and I feel like he's a great president.
No, but here's my heart.
Listen, listen, when he first came into the game,
the shit was fucked up.
9-11, all that shit was already there.
He stuck his shit in some shit that he,
his fingers and some shit that he just can't wipe off.
Like, he just, he came in.
In it, it was already bad.
It was already.
But here's my point.
You're trying to tell the shit.
High tides.
If E 40 is the mayor of the Yeh area,
then we're going to put game and Snoop going to run California.
I'm from a area called Vallejo.
So that's shout out to Vallejo.
I'm going to run for a small city.
That ain't the Bay Area.
No, no, no.
But listen, once you take over Vallejo,
then we're going to make Mr. Fab.
You're going to make it too short takeover.
Let me fix this for a sound bike come through.
Yeah, yeah, for sure.
I'm from Vallejo.
The motherfuckers get a twist of this.
We got the same waters as the Bay Area.
So we're Vallejo.
So we're the Bay Area, but what I'm saying is,
that's not the whole Bay Area.
So, well, I can't be the mayor of the Bay Area.
No, that's what we're going to make you.
No, no.
But you're going to be the mayor of the whole Bay Area.
Well, they call me that ambassador to the Bay.
We're going to make Trick Daddy.
Well, Bay Area is a county mayor.
So this is what we're going to do.
They call me the ambassador.
In my opinion, E40, in my opinion, I want hip hop and take a whole pocket.
politics. So in order for us to put Kanye West in office, what we need to do is to have
everybody take care. I'm running for mayor, left rack, and they don't even have a mayor.
I'm just taking over. Because I got to do politics. What was that called? Politicals?
Politicians shit. So we need you to run for them. You went too short, and then we're going to
have the loonies as your cabinet partners. Cabinet partners. And we're going to change.
politics. We change hip-hop.
We change life. And listen.
And you know, you know why it's going to work
for you? Because you've been a respectful
dude for over 20 years.
You're still out here.
The youth respect you. The older
niggers respect you and everybody in between
respect you. So I'm just asking you as a friend.
I need you to get into politics so we can make Kanye
rest for prayer because I want to get free easies.
Or back somebody that you respect.
And then I want every school in America.
Definitely back somebody that I respect.
You know what I'm talking about?
MC Hammer.
I think he'll make a great.
Hammer would be great.
Hammer would be great.
Hammer. Let's let's see him.
That's what you're great.
MC Hammer, nigga.
He's hammer, don't hurt him.
And he ain't wearing speedos no more.
That's my nigga.
Hey, let me tell you something.
