I've got a big heart and I believe in good karma.
I'm not boasting or nothing but a lot of people have a lot of love for me. I'm a legend, but I stay H and H, hungry and humble.
I got a great imagination, and I pay close attention to my surroundings and I'm very observant.
I'm the greatest game-spitter of all time. I talk about the swell, the block, the 'hood. I'm a street commentator. I narrate how people live. That's E-40.
I love working with different artist with different styles and different producers with different sounds, creativity is everything.
I used to love Talking Heads, Peter Gabriel, and the Human League.
I love gospel music, I love gangsta music.
I really started from grassroots, without a handout or anything.
I'm the most humblest guy you can ever talk to or meet.
I'm always giving life lessons in my music.
When I was little, seven or eight years old, in third and fourth grade, I would always try to use long words and stuff.
When I was in the marching band, I used to take my snare drum and turn it over and use my drumstick and scratch on the other side. That was just being creative.
I love mayonnaise, but mustard is a must when you're doing the Impossible Burger.
Some people be game-goofy and words don't sound right coming out of their mouthpiece. But whenever E-40 says something it's just solidified.
The 'Day Shift' songs are things that would unfold during the daytime. 'Night Shift' is what would unfold during the nighttime. So, that's how I put that whole thing together. I did both all on one album budget.
Before me, there was no offbeat flow.
In the early '90s, Too Short was like one of the first dudes who kinda discovered Lil Jon. So I always used to see him at concerts and we'd pow wow - a good dude, you know?
As long as I've got my life, health and strength, and I'm in my right mind? I'mma get money.
When I was 20, I was the hustler - rubbing my temples, stressed, trying to get out the streets, trying to take my life to another side of the game with something I really loved to do: rap music.
I might like the Sacramento Kings. One of my favorite players is Dirk Nowitzki.
