On a sunny Saturday, E-40 encountered a fan who mistook him for another hip-hop heavyweight, Fat Joe. Talk about an awkward moment! The fan approached E-40 with a smartphone, ready to capture a memorable interaction, but the greeting was all wrong.
“Fat Joe? Yeah, I was just with him,” E-40 responded, referencing their recent appearance together at a Joe Biden rally. However, when it clicked that the fan had genuinely confused him for the Terror Squad leader, E-40 didn’t hold back. “You a comedian […] That was childish, right? Come on man, when was you born? 2024?”
As E-40 walked away, he left the fan with some advice: “Do your homework.” This wasn’t just a random quip but a reminder for fans to stay informed about their favorite artists. The interaction, whether a genuine mistake or a subtle troll, was captured and shared widely on social media.

Despite the mix-up, E-40 maintains his iconic status in the hip-hop community. As for Fat Joe, he has been making waves with political engagements, including a discussion with Kamala Harris on marijuana legislation. “Marijuana is considered as dangerous as heroin, which is absurd,” the Vice President noted, with Fat Joe emphasizing the need for change.
In the end, this amusing mix-up only underscores the influence these artists have, whether in music or on the political stage.
E-40’s quick wit and the subsequent online buzz highlight both the humor and respect that permeate the world of hip-hop.
