• Career

  Eve was one of a new breed of tough, talented, commercially viable female MCs to hit the rap scene during the late '90s. During her time in High School Eve honed her skills through freestyle battles and formed a female rap duo called EDGP. When the group broke up she went solo and changed her name to "Eve of Destruction." After meeting Dr. Dre in Los Angeles she impressed the super-producer with an impromptu audition and was signed to his new Aftermath label. When the label changed direction Eve's contract was allowed to expire. While he was in Los Angeles promoting his album It's Dark and Hell is Hot, Eve met and auditioned for DMX's Ruff Ryders posse. After contributing to several different hit singles Eve released her first full-length album, titled Let There Be Eve...Ruff Ryders First Lady in 1999. Her sophmore effort, 2001's Scorpion rocketed Eve to fame with the popular hits Who's That Girl? and Let Me Blow Ya Mind which won a Grammy in the newly created category of Best Rap/Sung Collaboration.
