<b>EVE! </b>With album sales totaling nearly 10 million, Eve is a genuine star in the worlds of music, fashion and film. Recognized as one of hip hop’s most celebrated female MCs, she has received accolades as diverse as her career, ranging from a
<b>GRAMMY Award</b>, to an <b>NAACP Image Award</b>, <b>MTV Video Music Award</b> and a
<b>BET Award</b>, as well as multiple nominations from across the industry for her work. As the only female in the

<b>“Gotta Man” </b>and the anti-domestic abuse classic <b>“Love Is Blind”</b> Eve’s 1999 debut album
<b><i>Let There Be Eve…Ruff Ryder’s First Lady</i></b> was a double platinum success. Her 2001 sophomore release
<b><i>Scorpion</i></b> went platinum, while garnering her crossover appeal with the Grammy Award winning mega-hit
