Rap News: E-40 Shares Epic 2Pac Photo + Missed Opportunity To Collab With Nipsey Hussle
Earl T. Stevens popularly known as E-40, brought back that nostalgic feeling with an epic throwback photo of himself hanging out with late rap legend, Tupac Shakur. The “Chase The Money” rapper while on The Breakfast Club to discuss his 28th album and all that he’s been up to lately in the business, spoke on a number of topics including his missed opportunity to collab with Nipsey Hussle on his track, “Grinding All My Life”.
“He sent me a song dude and I’m so mad I didn’t get on it,” he says, as seen at the 22-minute mark. “I tried to, but it was crunch time for me. He needed it back with the hurry-up. It was called, ‘All my life …’ He sent me that one. That was a few years ago and I was moving around. When he sent it, it was way before Victory Lap. We are busy people. We never tripped on any of that.”
“Man, I love Nipsey,” he adds. “When that happened, that really hurt me because I feel like Nipsey is somebody that was very important to the culture … He really meant a lot. More people are woke now to Nipsey. It’s sad to say how it happens once somebody passes away, you know what I mean?”
