Even though he is a pretty big rap star, E-40 has helped mold the game for the past two and a half decades from behind the scenes. His influence spans the entire game. In fact, the DJ Mustard sound is influenced by the hip hop genre, Hyphy, which E-40 helped make mainstream.
E-40 has put in work and became the first rapper to release a triple album. Now, E-40 has gone onto release two sets of triple albums over the past three years. Coming up next for E-40 is him going out on tour, hitting up all the major cities in California.
The Oakland legend is launching a 39 city tour, “Choices” tour. E-40 is launching the tour on May 5 in San Diego and it will end on June 17 in in Tempe, Arizona. This tour will stay on the West Coast, hitting such cities as Las Vegas, so folks out there can catch him.
