E-40 Reportedly Files Lawsuit Against "Captain Save A Hoe" Author

E-40 is not in the mood to play games. The Bay Area rap staple has reportedly decided to sue author Erika Kane, who penned the book Captain Save A Hoe under the name iikane, according to TMZ.

40 Water is accusing Kane and her publishers of lifting the title from his 1993 track of the same name.

In new court documents, the “Sprinkle Me” rapper claims he owns the rights to the phrase “Captain Save a Hoe” and that Kane blatantly stole it for her own gain. 40 wants a judge to pull book from shelves and is requesting any profits Kane has made from the book.

HipHopDX reached out to E-40’s camp, but didn’t hear back immediately.
