20th Anniversary Vinyl 2LP Reissue!
Eve was one of a new breed of tough, talented, commercially viable female MCs to hit the rap scene during the late '90s. Though she could be sexy when she chose, she wasn't as over the top as Lil' Kim or Foxy Brown, and as part of the Ruff Ryders posse, her production was harder than Da Brat's early work with Jermaine Dupri. In the end, Eve came off as her own person; a strong, no-nonsense street MC who could hold her own with most anyone on the mic, and was finding success on her own terms.
2001's Scorpion, her second studio effort, received strong reviews and topped the R&B charts while debuting at No. 4 on the pop side. Lead single "Who's That Girl?" had some chart success, but it was the follow-up, a duet with No Doubt's Gwen Stefani called "Let Me Blow Ya Mind," that really broke Eve on the pop charts. The song rocketed to No. 2 and went on to win a Grammy in the newly created category of Best Rap/Sung Collaboration; it also helped Scorpion go platinum. In honor of the 20th anniversary of Scorpion, Interscope/UMe is putting the breakout release back on vinyl 2LP for the first time in years!
