E-40 rationalizes his album output the way most of us rationalize buying shoes: If it’s not part of a pair, it’s a pointless endeavor. Since 2010, the Bay-area rapper has put out three double LPs, and a “double-trilogy,” the massive six album Block Brochure project. That’s a lot of ghost riding of whips.
According to Pitchfork, E-40’s next double album, The D-Boy Diary Books 1 & 2, will be available November 18. As usual, it takes a village to raise a double LP, with guest appearances from Gucci Mane, Lil B, G-Eazy, Nef The Pharaoh, Droop-E, Jay Rock, Kid Ink, B-Legit, Mistah F.A.B., Mozzy, K Camp, Ezale, Jazze Pha, and Turf Talk among others.
