 After dropping his 13th and 14th albums last year, on the same day, Bay Area legend E-40 is gearing up for two more albums late next month -- the latest from his Revenue Retrievin' album series.
Empowering a familiar cliché, "If it's not broke, don't fix it", the Revenue Retrievin' series continues with Graveyard Shift and Overtime Shift, making 40's 15th and 16th albums.
Artists T-Pain, Tech N9ne, in addition to E-40's bay area conglomerate Guce, Black C of RBL Posse, Laroo, Turf Talk, Cousin Fik, J. Stalin and The Click, all grace the forthcoming albums; while 40 and his son Droop-E -- who raps and produces -- will once again share "Executive Producer" credits on both albums.
23 Years ago E-40 began to generate his fanbase, as a member of "The Click" who were initially introduced as M.V.P., with their debut EP, The Kings Men, in 1988. The domino-effect of that album inspired three more successful independent releases, ultimately inspiring major record label Jive Records to sign E-40, where he released his 1995 album, In A Major Way.
During the course of the multi-album deal, 40 produced three gold albums and one platinum album with the label.
Then In 2005, the music MacGyver partnered with Lil Jon and signed with Warner Brothers/BME . In 2006, not only did E-40 reposition himself, but the Northern California music scene struck gold with the release of E-40's My Ghetto Report Card which was eventually certified gold and introduced the world to the hyphy movement.
In 2010, he signed to Heavy On The Grind, owned by his first son Droop-E. Together, they released E-40's Revenue Retrievin' Day Shift and Revenue Retrievin' Night Shift, spawning the hit single, "Bitch" featuring Too Short and 50 Cent.
Now with two more albums on deck, 40 and Droop-E plan on keeping their run going and notching another classic on their belts.
Today, both fans and street soldiers around the globe can rest assured "Revenue Retreivin' Overtime Shift" and "Revenue Retrievin' Graveyard Shift" will be another flawless classic from the most underrated rapper of all time, E-40.
Revenue Retrievin': Graveyard Shift and Overtime Shift will drop on March 29.
