In an on-field interview with KNBR after the 49ers obliterated the Packers 37-8 on MNF, E-40 shed light on his inspiration to write the 49ers Anthem. “So that’s a hashtag on Instagram and it’s like 27,000 hashtags. I was like, ‘Woo Bang Bang Niner Gang!’ So the hook just start coming to me. So I just knocked it out. My son sent me the beat he produced, his name Droop-E. He sent it to me like 3:00AM in the morning to say ‘Pops, I think you need to do the anthem, the 49ers anthem to this.’ So I just knocked it out. It didn’t take but a second.”
