In a Major Way is the second studio album by American rapper E-40, released March 14, 1995 on Jive and Sick Wid It Records. The album features production by Funk Daddy, Kevin Gardner, Mike Mosley, Sam Bostic and Studio Ton. It peaked at number 2 on the Billboard Top R&B/Hip-Hop Albums and at number 13 on the Billboard 200,[3] selling 70,000 copies in its first week.[4] The album features guest performances by fellow members of The Click: B-Legit and Suga-T, as well as 2Pac, Mac Shawn, Spice 1, Celly Cel, Mac Mall, and his son Droop-E (credited as Lil E). The album is certified Platinum by the RIAA.

Three music videos were produced to promote the album including one featuring Spice 1 and Mac Mall, "Dusted 'n' Disgusted". 2Pac was replaced by Celly Cel in this version. Richie Rich makes a cameo appearance and says a few words in the early part of the video, and is seen wearing a t-shirt that clearly reads: "Free 2Pac". Along with singles, music videos were produced for the songs: "Sprinkle Me", featuring Suga-T, and "1 Luv", featuring Levitti.
