E-40 Donates $100K to Grambling State, Honored With ‘Earl Stevens’ Studio

E-40 was doing it “too huge” like his Mount Westmore anthem at his university Grambling State University on Friday … contributing an enormous $100K check to the HBCU’s music department for vital upgrades for generations of trainees to come.

The famous rap artist was flanked by his partner, GSU President Rick Gallot and Dr. Nikole Roebuck … Grambling’s Music Department Chair and Director of Bands and enthusiastically resolved the crowd throughout his crowning.

The GSU Tigers turned the script and shocked E-40 with the unveiling of The Earl “E-40” Stevens Sound Recording studio … a celebratory setup to motivate trainees’ music hustle much like the Bay Area OG!!!

40 participated in GSU all the method back in 1986 which paved the roadway he strolled to end up being a hip hop icon — and informed observers it was an honor to stand at the university for the full-circle minute.

He described maturing in his impoverished Vallejo, CA community led him to search for an escape and gotten on the very first train smokin’ when the Grambling chance came — and never ever recalled however leapt forward into a profession of platinum plaques, countless streams and mounds of timeless tunes!!!
