E-40 Stays Relentless With "Beating They Ass" As He Reflects On Decades of Mic Dominance

E-40 is back in full force with his latest track, “Beating They Ass,” where the Bay Area legend makes it clear that he’s not slowing down anytime soon. At 57 years old, E-40 has proven time and again that age is just a number when it comes to his rap career. His new single reaffirms his status as one of the most consistent and influential voices in hip-hop, carrying with it the same high-energy flow and self-assured swagger that has defined his career for over three decades. With a career that spans decades, E-40 has established himself as one of the most enduring and innovative figures in West Coast rap. From his early beginnings as a teenager in the Bay Area to his pioneering work in the 1990s and 2000s, 40 Water has shaped the sound of not just Bay Area hip-hop, but the broader rap scene as a whole. On “Beating They Ass,” he reflects on his immense catalog, reiterating that he’s been putting in the work and outshining the competition for years. It’s a reminder of his impact and influence, with the track boasting his signature rapid-fire flow and trademark slang. This new single comes at a time when another California rap legend, Too Short, made headlines with his own declaration of longevity, dropping "Still Mackin'," a clear message that he’s not retiring anytime soon. E-40’s move feels similarly poised as he embraces his place as an elder statesman of the game while maintaining an energetic and creative output. Much like Too Short, E-40 remains an unstoppable force, blending his entrepreneurial success with an undying passion for making music. While some may think age might slow down their favorite artists, E-40’s continued success only proves that when it comes to real legends, the hustle never stops. Fans can expect more of the same from the seasoned rapper as he continues to redefine what it means to be a long-lasting icon in hip-hop.
