We were beginning to worry, but it looks like Eve is finally back!

After a lengthy hiatus, one characterised by legal issues and a label change, the self-professed Pitbull In A Skirt barks back with new single ‘She Bad Bad’ – the cover for which she unmasked on Twitter moments ago.

The cut, which hits iTunes tomorrow, is the first effort to be lifted E-V-E’s EMI debut which boasts production from the likes of Missy Elliott and is set for release next year.

With Nicki Minaj having had a strong-hold of sorts on the commercial femcee market as of late, it’ll be uber interesting to see if her success assists the likes of  established acts such as Eve reclaim their spots at the top. As long-time supports of the former Ruff Ryder‘s talent, we sure hope it does.
