The university's president, Rick Gallot, expressed his appreciation for the rapper's dedication to improving the Louisiana school before awarding E-40 the framed degree. “Mr. Stevens has always used his platform to highlight and advocate for Grambling State University, and for that, we are truly grateful,” said Gallot. In 1986, E-40 pursued commercial art at the historically Black college. He has previously expressed that attending college was the best decision he made as a young man. During his acceptance speech, he restated a similar sentiment.

“My time on campus was the best experience of my life.

I encourage everyone here today to use their experience at Grambling State University to pursue their passions and dreams.”
