Rapper Eve has left her long-time label Interscope Geffen A&M Records. The ‘Tambourine’ performer also noted that she is currently in the studio working on a new album. Here is what the rapper had to say:
“Let me tell u what happened with music so ya’ll don’t think I quit,” she told her followers [on Twitter]. “Left Interscope, free agent now. Went back in re-doing music. Trust me.”
As for her oft-delayed fourth studio album, the first since 2002’s ‘Eve-Olution‘, she says it’s coming this year. “Not letting this year pass wit out an ALBUM! Can’t take the non-sense MUSIK.” {Source}
Is this label breakup season? First we had Michelle Williams leaving Music World Entertainment and now this. I hope Eve has thought this through fully because with industry in it’s current turbulent form, independent artists, especially female rappers, are going to have a tough time making a splash on the charts.

There is no buzz surrounding Eve and hasn’t been since the early 2000″s. Other then Nicki and Trina female hiphop is dead.

it’s not like she was doing crazy things on interscope
no record since the early 2000s, so it was time for a change
“tambourine” was crazy, so it’ll be interesting to see what she comes up with
she still shits on every female emcee out there, except for maybe foxy

She will be ok. She is still cool with Swiss Beatz so I’m sure they will continue to make hits.

Can’t wait for her to come out with something and put Nikki Minaj to shame! Nikki has NOTHING on EVE and her voice annoys me!
