Myspace.com is a colossal networking website used for a host of purposes, including establishing relationships between artists and consumers. Veteran Bay Area rapper E-40 is yet another musician utilizing the 50 million+ Myspace users worldwide to announce his latest musical offering.

Arguably hip hop’s most creative linguist, E-40 is blessing fans with his twelfth album, My Ghetto Report Card. In accordance with this March 14th release, Myspace.com is establishing E-40 as the first hip hop artist to have a video displayed on the site’s music and video pages.

The video, “Tell Me When To Go”, praises Bay Area culture, language and the growing ‘hyphy’ movement. E-40 sprinkles listeners with lines such as, “I’m from the Bay/ where we happy and go dumb// From the soil where those rappers be getting’ they lingo from”.

Not stopping there, E-40 and Myspace will provide fans with an exclusive album listening party, a contest for contestants to win airline tickets to New York to meet up with E-40 and Lil’ Jon, as well as an exclusive video interview. The rapper’s page has already been viewed nearly 344,000 times.

E-40’s My Ghetto Report Card boasts features from Juelz Santana, Lil’ Scrappy, Mike Jones, and West coast artists Keak Da Sneak, Turf Talk, and B-Legit. The album’s soundscape will be provided by Kanye West Rick Rock and even from his son, Dro, of The Pharmasutides.
