New Music: I Am Issue by Issue

Issue (E-40's son and younger brother to Droop-E) has been releasing music for a bit now and brings us this Best of for free download. Make sure you snatch it ASAP. Below also enjoy reading a dope drop about Issue on SFWeekly.
Emari Stevens came from one of the few Bay Area families that could be called a hip-hop dynasty. For the younger Stevens to enter any field other than hip-hop would have been outrĂ©. So it seemed natural that Emari, now 18, would cobble his first beats together in junior high, using software bequeathed from his father. Around that time he started wearing flashy clothes, including Coogi pants with neon stitching and a $500 Ed Hardy jacket with gold drawstrings — mostly to be "that guy," he'd say later. He meticulously took down the names of luxury cars, studied commercial pop artists, and frittered away time in his father's three home recording studios. When he was 14 years old, Droop-E rechristened him "Issue." It seemed like a rite of passage.
