40 could literally work with anyone in the industry. Doesn’t always come out great but they can definitely do a song together. 40 is criminally underrated in my opinion and so diverse with the artists he’s worked with over the last 40 years

Forty has been arguably the most consistent rapper of all time. Criminal at this point if he isn’t in the convo as a goat.

Was gonna say the same. I just can't hear it with Eminem, though.

Genuinely surprised by the e-40 glaze. Dude raps off beat, weird cadence, and his voice is absolutely annoying.

u/Bronek711 7d ago

Well that’s certainly a take…gonna be in the minority on that one weeblization

Not really. But I just realized what sub this is and that I don’t follow it. It’s Bay Area things for the locals and Seaworld San Diego.

What’s next? Gonna go on the San Diego sun next and talk ish about the beaches? 🤣. One of the best to ever do it, go put some pair where it ain’t!

Just letting you know what audience he’s for that’s all. Have a good day sir.

I think I’ll leave you with some game from 40 on his new song “Quicksand”.

“Bitch, damn near 40 years in the game
Imagine me not being known outside of California
You niggas is goofy
Who raised you suck butt ass niggas, man?”

🤣

It’s him talking at the end of the song for people like you. He’s not rapping 🤣

I'd encourage anyone that thinks 40 can't do collabs to check out Automatic f. Fabolous...

If J cole features, its a classic. other way around? questionable but J cole has done a really good job bringing OG regional rap stars onto his last 3 projects

Maybe 40 can recycle a verse like this one from Sideways

"But age ain't nothin' but a number (number) Baby got her hair done by Shanda (Shanda) Nine (nine) ten, 11, and up If you bleed, you get fucked (fucked)"

u/Ornery-Detective9234 8d ago

That's so crazy I was bumping this shit on my way to P-town this morning and I heard that rhyme and I know I've sung along with it hella times but this time was different. I heard those lyrics and was like WTF. Never heard 40 rap about barely legal grooming shit ever.

2

u/Sad-Math-2039 8d ago

For sure, and B-Legit isn't off the hook with this bar right before 40's verse

"Wanna know if B-Legit can kick it tonight (what else) Only 16, way too tight"

1

u/Ornery-Detective9234 8d ago

That's what I was thinking 🤣 when I was listening to it I was like ew b-legit that's nasty as fuck, then 40 with the blood line ewww

2

u/theRealDirtyNerd 8d ago

Right after he says no not me, not E 4-0

1

u/Sad-Math-2039 8d ago

So it's all good because he says, I fuck kids just joking

u/OuttapocketJesus 8d ago

Serious question, what city is P-town?

1

u/ugghface 8d ago

Immediately redeems himself with: No not me, not 4 oh.
Then ruins that’s redemption with his next breath: I beat a bitch down with a 2x4

u/Quite_Contrary24 8d ago

Obviously just misinterpreting the meanings of the lyrics. Big ol nothingburger 😂
