A few months ago, I traveled to San Francisco to watch the Warriors play with E-40. We spoke about becoming a champion of Bay Area's culture, watching the Warriors dynasty from the front row, his musical legacy, and buying tampons for his mom as a kid.

How E-40 fuels the Golden State Warriors, and vice versa

E-40, the Bay Area rap legend, has been a Warriors fan since birth. To understand what it means to love a dynasty in peril, you need to see the Dubs through the eyes of their No. 1 fan.

@Passionweiss I don’t think Drake is fooling anyone when he acts like a tough person, nor does he want to. It is a wink; a solipsistic caricature. (See: “Stay Schemin”). Nas was more of a level playing field when it comes to that, and Jay exposed the fact that Jay was the real dealer.

This is not “Ether”, FWIW, but just like “Ether” painted Jay-Z as a careerist who went to Jaz, Kane, to BIG to hone his persona/skills, I really think the “you collaborate for street cred” is devastating. Again, I’m a huge Drake fan, but these are just that hurt him in rap beef.
