Impact of a Legend is the third and final extended play by American rapper Eazy-E. It was released posthumously on March 26, 2002, the seventh anniversary of his death.
The EP was promoted by former groupmate Ice Cube, whom Eazy had made peace with shortly before his death in 1995. Despite reaching 113 on the Billboard 200, the EP sold poorly, making it Eazy-E's first project to not be certified by the RIAA. The EP spawned one single, "Switchez" featuring Roc Slanga. It also contains a bonus DVD with a short documentary, biography, music videos, a PC video game called Hittin' Switchez[2] and a DVD video game called Cuttin Loose In Compton.
