There are tens of millions of people who have been affected in some way by this COVID-19 pandemic and quarantine. As the “Safer At Home” orders seem to be coming to an end, politicians are trying to figure out how the world will return to everyday living, and interactions, while also doing their best to exercise proper precautions. As people have taken to social media to create memes, jokes, and videos about how bored they are at home, inmates reportedly haven’t been given proper care while behind bars. E-40 is doing his part to help them.

The Bay Area rapper has reached out to two California prisons and according to The Blast, E-40 has donated 1,000 gallons of hand sanitizer. He made the announcement on Instagram by sharing a video that shows how he partnered with a company in Missouri to make and package the product. “E-40 donates 1,000 gallons of hand sanitizer to Lompoc & San Quentin State Prison,” the hip hop mogul wrote in the caption to the clip.

It’s reported that E-40 decided to make the move to donate hand sanitizer after learning that there were 900 COVID-19 cases at the Lompoc Facility. This is is just another way that E-40 is giving back; the rapper is known for his many charitable works. Check out his video below.

The only way to be safe from coronavirus these days is to be far away from people. Inmates do not have that luxury. Though we’ve seen many individuals who were incarcerated get released from correctional facilities, there are still many that are locked up as the virus spreads. Jay-Z and Meek Mill‘s REFORM organization recently donated 100K masks to prisons to prevent the spreading among workers and officers.

Despite this, there’s still more that needs to be done to protect those locked up. Both T.I. and E-40 took to Instagram to spread awareness about the way inmates are being impacted by the coronavirus right now. 

“#Covid19 is lingering in the prisons. Inmates did not bring the covid19 on themselves, it’s being brought in by others coming in, NOT from visitors because visitation had been shut down. INMATES need to be protected with masks, hand sanitizers, and gloves, and antibody tests, and the prisons should protect and provide necessities for the inmates,” E-40 wrote on his Instagram page. He continued to explain how social distancing doesn’t exist, nor is there a proper way of separating the immune and the vulnerable. 

T.I. reposted E-40’s original post, adding, “THIS SHIT IS UNACCEPTABLE FOR ANY HUMAN BEING,Let alone OUR PEOPLE‼️ Salute to da legend @e40 for putting this information out there.”

Check out both of their posts below. 

Mitchell & Ness and Bleacher Report have teamed up with eight hip-hop artists for a limited collection of basketball jerseys and gear inspired by their hometown teams. For instance, The Diplomats put their spin on a blue and orange New York jersey, while Future created an electric Hawks jersey with a nod to "Zone 6" on the back.

All is well in the Bay as two OGs have put their incredibly short-lived feud to rest. E-40 hit the ‘Gram last night to reveal that he and Richie Rich linked up for a meal and “squashed” their feud. “Just finished up a Boss Talk wit my Guy @tharealrichierich I got alotta history wit that dude’ now we back on the same page,” he captioned the photo which Richie Rich reposted on his own Instagram.

Their feud all began the other day when Richie Rich called out E-40 on Instagram for allegedly calling him a snitch. However, it all started with some playful banter during the Super Bowl when Richie Rich called out a slew of 49ers fans including Forty Water. This prompted 40 to go ham in the comment section and air out Richie Rich.

After receiving numerous calls about this whole thing, Richie Rich just dropped a video of himself to try and clear the air. “Real n***as gon’ feel it. You called me a rat. So, I’m giving you 48 hours to produce documentation that supports that shit you was talking last night. ‘Cause if not, niggas can’t believe nothing you say,” he said.

Uncle Snoop slid into the comments at that point and urged the two to deal with this off of social media. It looks like both 40 and Richie Rich took Snoop’s advice. 

The Bay Area has trouble brewing between two of its favorites. Rapper Richie Rich hopped on Instagram on Monday (February 3) to address a few rumors that he didn’t appreciate. According to the Oakland rapper, E-40 got on Instagram yesterday and declared that Rich was a snitch. After allegedly answering too many messages about the accusation, Rich decided to publicly put E-40 on notice and let the world bear witness to his call out.

“Check this out my n*gga,” Rich began. “My phone been ringing. I’m tired of picking the phone up. Imma just do it just like this, my n*gga.” He said he wasn’t going to get into the personal things that he claims E-40 had to say about him because he wasn’t “trippin’ on none of that.” However, he wasn’t happy with having his reputation tarnished.

“That sh*t you called me last night. You got 48 hours my n*gga to produce some documentation,” Rich added. “Real n*ggas gon’ feel it. You called me a rat. N*gga. So, I’m giving you 48 hours to produce documentation that supports that sh*t you was talking last night. ‘Cause if not, n*ggas can’t believe nothing you say. You feel me? And real n*ggas, real b*tches gon’ resonate. Street n*ggas, street b*tches, this gon’ resonate.”

“E-40 called Richie Rich a rat last night on Instagram,” he continued. “Based on some sh*t I said about a football game… Get at me.” Snoop Dogg slid in Rich’s comments with hopes to keep the peace between his two friends. “Double. R. Y’all need to holla away from social media we grown now. i expect more out of both of y’all. We the west the lil homies watching to c how to resolve issues as men I’ll delegate if I must we all we got I love both y’all and want peace.”
