Eve hasn’t had a good album in years….


She was cartoonish like Drag-On and Jin was

 

[Sonic Boom of the South]

Now, "Who's that girl" will be in every cosmetic and maxi pad commercial.




Gah damm I hate that song and that corny ass beat.

Smart move..she wasn’t doing anything with it

But I’m interested to see the coli financial experts opinion on it

I think the investors are looking at this set of hits



And thinking that

1) Streaming/Hollywood/Madison Avenue is gonna use her stuff in movies/tv/advertisements. (Lot of Gen X, Older Millennials are now in charge of things (see Kamala) - and we want to hear Wu Tang and Smashmouth in our other media.

For example - The Pixies - "Where is my Mind" (1991?) was massive for a certain set of "too cool for school" kids in the 90s - and it keeps getting used. Thunderbolts most recently. And for cats that aren't Gen X, it was the Fight Club song...

Same set of people loved the hell out of Radiohead's Ok Computer and Kid A - and those songs are getting a lot of Hollywood love. That joint with Denzel's son used "Everything in it's right place" pretty well, cats had a genocide playlist when flying into South East Asia. Guardian's used Creep (which was off their first record).

These songs are great, imo...but they're not really speaking to 18-25 year olds, they're speaking to 45+.

2a) These young cats keep just remaking old songs from 20-30 years ago. (which is arguably what the Civil Rights generation said about Hip Hop jacking James Brown....) - money is in that. Nelly (hopefully) is getting paid from that Hot in Herre remake.

2b) AI version of Eve. There's always room for a a female rapper to speak to/market to a female audience. That's not speculative at all, given what you can find on Youtube right now.

And the real thing, in my mind.

3) Money HAS to get return. Especially big money.
A lot of investments that seem very speculative are really taking advantage of massive pools of money that can't just sit around in a bank.

The Giant Pool of Money - This American Life

The surprisingly entertaining story of how the U.S. got itself into a housing crisis.

It's why Uber was so cheap for so long. (and now it's not!)
If it doesn't get return, it's losing because of inflation.

Low key, the need for money to be "passive" is a driver of most investment. In my mind, this is one of the sins of capitalism, but I'll take that talk to a different thread.

Coli hatin on women.. like clockwork

 

[BK The Great]

She’s got songs that could be in commercials like that Gwen Stefani song. Not bad. Not sure if she still makes music anymore either that she’s now married to
That billionaire dude.

This is the same company that claimed they gave Irv Gotti a 300 million deal for his Masters. Irv later gave an interview clarifying that he got 100 million for his murder inc Masters and a 200 million line of credit to use for producing future tv shows and other business ventures. So while he has access to that line of credit, it would need to be payed back. Still a great deal for Irv but the press release was a little deceiving.

Eve probably got a similar deal since its the same company. No way her masters are worth 25 to 50 million. They probably gave her 5 to 10 million for her masters and the rest as a line of credit.

I interpret these articles as eve's catalog has been sold by one entity to another for 8 figures. What she get out of that exchange is what she get.

Same for all these other deals. Bet the artist ain't even got input in these transactions half the time. They are the commodity not the stock broker

 

[ShaDynasty]

Scorpion is a good album if you like Swizz Beats and that sound in general But yeah she was better for singles and features. She has a great rap voice.

I was playing her stuff back the last few days, and didn't realize Dre recycled The Watcher so much. The first Dre beat on Eveolution is pretty much The Watcher 3.

 

[Big Boss]

 

[EastsideRio]

I remember her songs being everywhere from her debut. She was HUGE after scorpion! I would even call it a classic.

Blow Ya Mind was definitely a hood classic

Satisfaction wasn’t as big but it went hard

 

[RennisDeynolds]

She had a few hits. The label can AI generate some remixes for these new broads

 

[88m3]

should've held out for 9


though
