Apparently, someone has been spreading some ill-informed rumors that led many to believe that E-40's stunna shades were blasted off his eyes in LasVegas. His publicist shot down those reports in a statement fired off to The Rap Up office:

I am writing to dispel any and all of the rumors currently circulating concerning the health and safety of Earl Stevens p/k/a E-40. Mr. Stevens is alive and well in Las Vegas enjoying All-Star weekend and has not been the victim of any shooting or accident. Sick Wid It Records, Chaz Hayes, and 40 Water thank all those who have expressed concern and kept 40 in their prayers and urge whoever is responsible for generating these outrageous rumors to contemplate the gravity of their actions and stop immediately.
