For one reason or another, many a seasoned Femcee has struggled to launch comebacks ‘of note’.

Indeed, without the benefit of a sizeable budget, an ‘in the know’ manager and an installed fan base, the likes of Eve and Lil Kim have found themselves faced with a mission impossible with every single/venture they launch.

However, it seems Eve has finally gotten it right with her new single ‘She Bad Bad’, a scorching new jam pulled from her 2013 album ‘Lip Lock’.

The name may indeed ring a bell for viewers of the 2012 BET Awards as she was chosen as this year’s ‘Music Matters’ pick – an outlet that gave the soulstress her first nationally televised chance to showcase her unique blend of “folk-soul”.  Dripping with R&B fusion, Bell’s refreshing blend of genres is reminiscent of ‘Southern Hummingbird’ Tweet, yet housed in an innocence reminiscent of Corrine Bailey Rae.

Despite all she is likened to, it’s safe to say what Jennah is bringing is indeed all her own as evidenced by her long awaited ‘Monster Killer’ visual.  Directed by Rafael Casal, the single comes as one of many gems listed on ‘Live at Mother NY’ EP.  Click here to stream that full album.
