Music career

=1986–1999=

Stevens made his rap debut as E-40 in 1986 with his cousin B-Legit, sister Suga-T, and brother D-Shot in the group Most Valuable Players. After impressing fellow students with a rap remix of the school song and a Grambling State talent show, Most Valuable Players released a single, "The King's Men".{{cite web|url=https://www.allmusic.com/artist/the-click-mn0000765587/biography|title=The Click Biography|last=LeRoy|first=Dan|publisher=allmusic|access-date=January 14, 2021}} The group later became The Click and released the EP Let's Side in 1990. The EP was co-produced by Mike Mosley and Al Eaton and was released on Sick Wid It Records, an independent label founded by E-40. In 1992 they released a second album, Down and Dirty, and in 1993 E-40 made his solo album debut. Federal, a nine-track LP/14-track CD produced by Studio Ton and released by Sick Wid It Records in association with SMG (Solar Music Group), a regional distributor.

In 1993, the Click had mainstream hit, "Captain Save a Hoe" (radio edit "Captain Save Them Thoe"). They moved back to Vallejo and teamed up with D-Shot, E-40's brother, to form the group MVP or Most Valuable Players. E-40's gospel singing uncle (Saint Charles) helped them put out the record.{{cite web|url=http://www.thefader.com/blog/articles/2005/10/10/left-side|title=Left Side|website=Thefader.com|access-date=January 12, 2015}} Suga-T was then added to the group to form the Click.{{cite web|url=http://www.westcoast2k.net/interviews/blegit.htm|title=Worship the B|website=Westcoast2k.net|access-date=January 12, 2015|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20030224015315/http://www.westcoast2k.net/interviews/blegit.htm|archive-date=February 24, 2003|url-status=dead}}

Although having a large following on the West Coast, E-40 did not have a large mainstream audience, so only two of his songs released under Jive Records, "1-Luv" featuring Levitti and "Things'll Never Change" featuring Bo-Roc, charted on the Billboard Hot 100. He had been working nearly exclusively with rappers from the Bay Area until 1997, when he released the double disc compilation Southwest Riders featuring exclusively rap acts from the Bay Area and the south. His collaboration with southern rappers continued in 1998, when he was given guest appearances on albums by Southern rappers, including Lost by Eightball, and MP da Last Don by Master P.
