"... a hellacious new song ... finds Eve hungrier than ever, unleashing a torrent of lyrical destruction over beat of guttural bass grooves and a twisted, eerie vocal sample."
ROLLING STONE

"... hypnotizing ... a completely different sound."
COMPLEX

" ... no matter the vibe or subject matter, Eve doesn't seem to let up on her flow ... Lip Lock may shape up to be a smart, modern update to her already confident songs."
IDOLATOR

"...  fierce bars from Ruff Ryder's former First Lady ... Eve keeps the momentum strong leading into the release of her comeback album, Lip Lock."
MISS INFO

"... bossy rhymes over a bouncy anthem ... haunting hook  ... dancehall flavor."
