He's got multiple aliases: Charlie Hustle, 40 Fonzarelli, The Ballatician, Mr. Flamboyant, 40 Belafonte to E-Feezy. But, he's professionally known as E-40, or the Ambassador of The Bay Area, and the Ambassador is gearing up for release of his 13th and 14th album on the same date.
In late March, E-Feezy is will be dropping two separate albums, entitled Revenue Retrievin' The Day Shift and Revenue Retrievin' The Night Shift.
Going to work with him, hip-Hop's finest profiles, Snoop Dogg, Gucci Mane, Too Short and Mistah Fab punch in along with the melodies of Bobby V, Jazze Pha, YV and J. Valentine on both day and night shifts. With a total of 38 brand new tracks, E-40 and his Bay Area conglomerate -- B-Legit, Messy Marv, Dem Hoodstarz, Ya Boy, The DB'z, Turf Talk, Clyde Carson, Husalah and Droop-E -- lyrically engineer a top shelf production.
"I'm excited about this album; it's been a year since I dropped The Ball Street Journal. It marks an important independent business venture for me. This way, I am able to go back to the basics and run my own campaign," E-40 said of the two releases.
Over the years, E-40 has served as the headliner of notoriety in the Bay Area, while creating a musical space of his own. In addition, he has gained international exposure for introducing new music genres to hip-hop music in addition to threading new terminology such as "Slaps" and "Thumpers" used to describe the sound. As his beat goes on, the rap veteran recently made the savvy decision to sign an independent label deal with Heavy On The Grind Entertainment/EMI, owned by Earl Stevens Jr. aka Droop-E, who is not only a hit making producer, but the son of E-40.
"We are thrilled to have the opportunity to provide commercial services for E-40," said Dominic Pandiscia, Senior Vice President & General Manager of EMI. "He has had a massive impact on hip-hop in the Bay area and beyond ,and we're extremely excited to partner with him on the next phase of his career."
Last year, nine of the songs from his The Ball Street Journal album were leaked weeks prior to the release of the album. As the countdown begins for Revenue Retrievin' Day Shift and Revenue Retrievin' Night Shift, fans can expect to get a preview of the new E-40 and his Heavy On The Grind Entertainment Movement via both YouTube and live UStreaming experiences.
Both albums hit the streets on March 30th.
The detailed adventures of E-40 will be announced via Twitter @TheRealE40.
