Editor's note

E-40, the Bay Area rap veteran with a conversational flow.

A Vallejo rapper who built a long career on wit and independent hustle.

For his style, try 'Brownie Points.' For his staying power, 'She Say She Loves Me' works.

E-40's songs like 'Brownie Points' and 'She Say She Loves Me' have a specific, talky rhythm that feels like a guy holding court. He helped define a West Coast sound outside the L.A. spotlight, and his label Sick Wid It Records kept things independent. That's a real thread in hip-hop.

He started with The Click in the late '80s on 'Let's Side.' His solo run took off with 'Federal' in 1993, leading to albums like 'Tha Hall of Game' and a steady stream of records since. The discography just kept growing.
