Eve Sells Catalog Rights in 8 Figure Deal

[Spaceman Piff]

When Calver brought up Cee’s viral homage to Doja Cat that samples Eve and Gwen Stefani’s 2001 hit “Blow Ya Mind,” Eve broke down her process for approving – or denying – the sample requests. For Cee, it was a no-brainer.

“He ate that record!” Eve began. “So for that record in particular, we were very involved because I don’t say yes a lot. We get probably two to three offers a month. It’s usually ‘Blow Ya Mind’ or ‘Who’s That Girl.’ Those are the two that we get.”

Eve Explains Why She Cleared Central Cee 'Doja' Sample: 'He Ate That Record'

Eve doesn't let just anyone sample any her catalogue of hits, but for UK rapper Central Cee she was happy to oblige – and she explained why in a new interview.

Eve’s music not aging well but Trina’s does is insane Outside of BR Right, Killing You Hoes, Nann, and this song with Plies in 05, ain’t much Trina I’d run back right now. Meanwhile Eve has Love Is Blind, Hey Yall, Double R What, Gotta Man, What Yall Want, Philly Philly and a host of other tracks. Trina hardly has any deeper album cuts like Eve had. Plus a lot of Trina’s production was too soft and “cute” (like various women today), Eve had flat out heaters and Ruff Ryders and Interscope was a big of of that.

8 figures for what

[King Sun]

Yall forget how many songs EVE gets it commercials and movies.

Must be her husband's connections. She ain't in demand.

100% cac swag.

Wasn't nobody out here going "Ya know, our commercial about botox injections and penile implants could use an Eve track playing in the background."

 

[bourgeoisie tall freak]

I think ther music still gets play in some movies and commercials no?

she gets play everywhere.... 6 million monthly listeners on spotify alone. coli.com narcissists showing they have absolutely zero music business sense, thinking "if i don't listen, it doesn't matter"

 

[T.H.E.GOD]

8 figures for Eve Catalog?

Edit: My bad, I haven’t had my coffee. I read eight figures and thought 100+Ms.

You just left me even more confused and this shyt wasn’t interesting enough for me to go past page 1 to figure out.

8 figures is so slick.

That shyt could have sold for $10M on the dot or for $90M+. Doesn't matter for her because she already married a rich/wealthy man. Probably a good idea though. Unless you have a MJ, Prince, Stevie, Smokey etc., catalog....cashing out will provide more long-term security for your family.

Smokey Robinson gotta have the GOAT catalog. If you combine all the hits he wrote for Motown + his career with the Miracles + his solo music.....you would have to be high 9 figs, almost 10 figs to capture the value. Dude wrote "My Girl" which probably gets you $50M by itself you'd think.
