Rap Pages Magazine - April 1999 - E-40 Cover (Bay Area)

The Vallejo Slugger Plays His Greatest Hits.

Released in April 1999, this vintage issue of Rap Pages features Bay Area legend and Sick Wid It Records founder E-40 on the cover. Dropping right around the release of his gold-selling album Charlie Hustle: The Blueprint of a Self-Made Millionaire, this cover story is an essential piece of Northern California hip-hop history.

The issue is packed with a diverse and heavy-hitting supporting lineup, featuring articles on Krayzie Bone (Bone Thugs-N-Harmony), underground pioneers Jurassic 5, Oakland's Yukmouth, Cash Money's B.G., and Naughty by Nature. (Bonus: The back cover features a vintage 1999 advertisement for the 'Thicker Than Water' movie and soundtrack starring Mack 10, Fat Joe, and Ice Cube).
