E-Life is the sixth studio album by the band Mint Condition. It is their second album for the label Image Entertainment as well as their second album without member Keri Lewis, who left the band in 2001.

Contents

The first single released from E-Life was the song "Baby Boy, Baby Girl"- with an alternate version sent to radio featuring guest vocals from neo-soul singer Anthony Hamilton. The second single "Nothing Left to Say" featured a music video directed by fellow Minneapolis, Minnesota native and independent filmmaker Wayne H. Johnson, Jr. The music video was created by the faculty and students of Globe University/Minnesota School of Business. Members of the school's Music Business program, digital video and media production programs were primarily responsible for the making of the video.

The song "Why Do We Try" was later covered by Robert Glasper with Mint Condition frontman Stokley Williams on Glasper's 2012 album Black Radio.
