iTunes Review

E-40’s tenth solo album is dedicated to furthering the cause of hyphy, the woozy, beat-heavy sound that broke in the Bay Area in the early ‘00s. Breakin News is anchored by several tracks from Rick Rock, the producer with whom 40 appears to carry on a telepathic chemistry. The album begins with a trio of Rock productions, and “Breakin News,” “Hot” and “I Got Dat Work” are miniature displays of rhythmic fireworks and off-kilter electronics. The Clipse are one of the few younger groups from outside the Bay to incorporate into their sound the ideas of Rick Rock and E-40. The Virginia duo guests on “Quarterbackin’” and their technical expertise pushes 40 to elevate his game: “Seen fiends vomit green stuff I had to clean it up wit' comet / Mean stuff, so many deaths my streets is haunted / Believe us, you shoulda seen us, like Wile E. Coyote, man super genius / Against all odds like Serena and Venus.” “Anybody Can Get It” proves that crunk’s rock-solid foundation is an ideal foundation for 40’s radical rhymes. Better still, 40 has reached the age where he can flow over the vintage soul of “I Hope U Get This Kite” and make it sound magic.

Along with Too Short, Spice 1, and Ant Banks, E-40 was among the first Bay Area rappers to sign a major-label deal, penning a deal with Jive Records...
