The Cosign: Bay Area legend E-40 reacts to new rap hits

For the latest episode of ‘The Cosign,’ Genius recruited Bay Area legend E-40 aka 40-Watter aka Charlie Hustle aka TKA aka E-Bonics to give his take on some new hits from up-and-coming rappers.

The one and only E-40 appeared on the latest episode of The Cosign to discuss some new hits from up-and-coming rappers.

From SpotEmGottem’s “Beat Box 2” to Coi Leray’s “No More Parties (Remix)” to NF’s “CLOUDS,” he shared his honest opinion on each track and shared his tips for crafting a hit song.

“The hook gotta be hella catchy,” said E-40, aka Forty Fonzarelli.

“The beat gotta slap hella hard. I like when artists don’t sound like everybody else. I want you to be in your own lane.”

E-40’s latest release is “Still At It” with Cousin Fik and Hitta Slim. You can find it on Spotify and other digital outlets.

You can follow @E40 and @Genius on Instagram.
