E-40 is adding another line of spirits to his already extensive collection.
The Bay Area rapper announced the launch of Tycoon Vodka, a six-time distilled vodka. The vodka is named after his 2016 song produced by Nonstop da Hitman. E-40 has been teasing the new alcohol on social media for quite some time.
He most recently shared a video to his Instagram of the Tycoon Vodka bottles lined up in a behind-the-scenes look at the manufacturing process. He’s previously shown off the drink’s art deco-styled packaging.
E-40 already boasts an extensive spirits portfolio through his Earl Stevens Selections alcohol line. Tycoon Vodka joins Tycoon Cognac; E. Cuarenta Cerveza, a golden lager beer; E. Cuarenta Tequila; Kuiper Belt Bourbon; Kuiper Belt Gin, along with 15 different sparkling and still wines. Additionally, there is also an assortment of pre-mixed cocktails.
The launch follows news that the legendary rapper donated $100,000 to his alma mater, Grambling State University. The money will be used to support the school’s marching band and build a recording studio.
