EVE COVERS GIANT MAGAZINE

Wednesday, March 28, 2007

eve_giantmag copy.jpg

Eve is on the cover of the April/May 2007 issue of Giant magazine and she did not bite her tongue at all in the issue.

The raptress covered everything - from her sextape, to her vanilla ex-boyfriend, to why her T.V show was really ended, and her feelings on the current state of Hip Hop…

On the sextape leak:

I was hurt by it, but what kept me calm is the fact that it was my boyfriend. Not that I wanted people to see me having sex, but it wasn’t like I was getting gangbanged - that would have been crazy!

On her relationship with Guinean dictator, Teodorin Nguema Obiang & dating other races:

I’d rather not talk about it. We met through mutual friends, and we were together for three years. It was a good relationship…I’m going to love who loves me, and if I’m attracted to a person I’m attracted to them. I’ve had black men, especially industry types say to me, ‘Oh, I heard you were dating someone white? No, but if I was, it would be my choice, so stay out of my business. They don’t like when I say that to them though

On why ‘Eve’ was taken off the air:

There was a lot of politics going on at UPN with the black sitcoms and with Will Smith’s show [All of Us], so I had a feeling we weren’t coming back. There are no guarantees in television, and they don’t even give you a heads up. The show ended two seasons shy of syndication eligibility and was sold to TV One.

On the current state of Hip Hop and her future plans in the industry:

For me it all started with [D4L’s] ‘Laffy Taffy.’ When I first heard that song on the radio, I just knew it was a joke, but then I kept hearing it. Every artist has the right to do what they want, but I don’t believe in making that kind of music. It’s disposable.”

“Hip-hop is in cardiac arrest, but I think it’s revivable. it’s not that I’m so profound, rhyming about when Jesus came down or anything, but I take the time to sit down and make sure my words come together so they sound right and flow with the track. I think a lot of that is missing

Eventually, I want to completely move into moviemaking because it is a pretty stable life. Music is unfortunately, getting crazy. I mean, rock stars don’t even have longevity and music is just - hip-hop, especially - so…superficial.”

“There’s nothing special.
There’s not one hip-hop artist that I can say is special…There are some that are definitely better than others, and that’s my personal opinion, you know? But if I had a child, I wouldn’t let them watch TV, and I would not let them listen to the radio. As far as the videos go, and all that.. I just can’t.

I like Eve like, 10 times more now. Make sure you cop this issue (article blurbs via whudat)

What Eve is saying is very condescending. For instance, I agree Hip-Hop is very superficial but so is society. It’s a shame that it had to transcend along w/ the world of T.V but how else would most of these artist get the attention (sell CDs) to the teenagers that are glued to MTV and BET. Which are the same stations that aired all of Eve’s videos and interviews.

On the topic of her dating white is her choice but she can’t say that didn’t help her in her rapid transformation. She changed style, appearance (Hair, Makeup & Nose), not to mention her vocabulary. She can’t tell me all that wasn’t influenced by her dating someone that is considered a dignitary. It’s nothing wrong with an upgrade on style or having a now mature level of fashion but it all goes back to art imitating life that imitates art. We as humans will cling on to what is popular and trendy.

Basically, what I’m trying to say is she can’t throw stones when in light she is doing the very same thing w/ herself. TRANSFORMATION

@149,

Thanks for “keeping hip-hop hope alive”. I tell you, I do get frustrated a lot, especially right now with the female rap game. Since MC Lyte, there really has not been anybody really hard hip-hop to boot!. I keep it underground and I also keep Dead Prez bumping, hoping that the evolution of Hip-Hop and killer Emcee’s are not to far behind!

What a nice way to end the blog topic for me!

Eve is part of the problem, with all her materialistic songs and TV shows. She has always been an overrated bald-headed Ho, but now she is all proper-like. Hip-Hop IS dead, you better recognize. Sales are slippin and Radio is bleeding listeners. How many times can you see the same videos of cars, girls and money. Hip-Hop needs to evolve or die. I predict some Latin sh*t will take it’s place.

Love Eve. I have a lotta respect for her. I remember she said the same thing right when she was in her second season of her show. I’m glad she’s still stickin’ to her guns. Get out (of the music biz) while you can. I’m not sure about movies though, maybe she should try getting a new show.

Chante’, Chante’ Chante’!

Chante’, I wouldn’t sleep with you if you were the last chick on Concreteloop! Don’t flatter yourself! You’ve lost that opportunity! hehe! Does your fiance’ know how random you are? You can prop Eve up on all four side, but she’ll still fall through the middle!

And , you really do need to stop blaming others for your actions! You don’t go to church because you probably to hung over or hoed out on Sunday mornings! lol! Now, if neither is true, don’t sweat it! But, if I’m right, then you need to come clean and accept your responsibility for laying yo ass up in the bed on Sunday mornings! Because, a true believer would let nothing come between them and they’re worship!!!

Were you raised by wolves??? You a nasty, foul mouthed, little vicious diva! lol! WOW!!! What happened, little Sis??? Were you a victim? I didn’t mean to open any wombs, but I’m just use to your brand of talk coming from the dykes! You’re straight! Right?? I know!

But WOW, such a bitter sister! I hope you’re not related to Eve! Why else would you get so caught up in her stans? What is it? Just a fan or are you hiding something else???

Anyhow, I hope you realize what you’ve evolved into! Don’t make the same mistakes that Eve made! She could be evolving because doors are starting to close on her, and not because she wants to show young girls the way! Losing opportunities has a way of making us evolve!

I don’t need to know your personal issues, but please don’t confuse them with the trivality on this blog! This $#!T just ain’t that serious! Now, breath!

Chante’, I wouldn’t sleep with you if you were the last chick on Concreteloop! Don’t flatter yourself! You’ve lost that opportunity! hehe! Does your fiance’ know how random you are? You can prop Eve up on all four side, but she’ll still fall through the middle!
>>>> Opportunity? More like a curse! Don’t YOU flatter yourself, I didn’t “holla at you” dear, I ignored your comments about you “dicking me up”. Don’t worry about my fiance, he wanna spend his life with me because he knows I’m a good soul and a kind heart, the kind of christian he enjoys spending quality time with. He knows his woman is not that judgemental shit-talker like the Meatloafs of the world.

And , you really do need to stop blaming others for your actions! You don’t go to church because you probably to hung over or hoed out on Sunday mornings! lol! Now, if neither is true, don’t sweat it! But, if I’m right, then you need to come clean and accept your responsibility for laying yo ass up in the bed on Sunday mornings! Because, a true believer would let nothing come between them and they’re worship!!!
>>>> Here we go again with MEATLOAF’S theories and judgements. I DONT BLAME ANYONE FOR MY ACTIONS, And I’ve NEVER EVER indulged in hoe activities. I consciously made the decision to LEAVE because not because I blamed but because of observations. I don’t like the atmosphere of the church I used to attend, people badmouth others right INSIDE THE CHURCH and claim to be children of God. You can call this “blaming others”, I call this “observing hypocrits and choosing not to hang out with them”. Until I find a church without MEATLOAFS that’s the way it’s gonna be. God might “blame yall” for not being good examples of christianity. My home is my church, a warm home for myself, and those who need to be loved, listened to and uplifted instead of being condemned, judged and belittled by so-called “children of God”.

Were you raised by wolves??? You a nasty, foul mouthed, little vicious diva! lol! WOW!!! What happened, little Sis??? Were you a victim? I didn’t mean to open any wombs, but I’m just use to your brand of talk coming from the dykes! You’re straight! Right?? I know!
>>>> No. I was raised by amazing parents who taught me the most important things taught by the Bible that most of hollier than thou hypocrits like you fail to practice : LOVE. ACCEPTANCE. TOLERANCE. BEING THERE FOR OTHERS. I just don’t respect people who are not respectable and I’m talking about YOU my dear. The fact that you brought up my family shows that you are unscrupulous and would use ANYTHING to hurt others, you “christian”. I’ve talked to you the way fools like you deserve to be talked to.

But WOW, such a bitter sister! I hope you’re not related to Eve! Why else would you get so caught up in her stans? What is it? Just a fan or are you hiding something else???
>>>>> Bitter would be more like sorry people like you who don’t have anything to do but to spend their time pointing the finger at other people’s flaws instead of working on all their own flaws. I’m not related to Eve, and even if I was why would you hope I’m not?? What would be so shameful about it? As if your family is so perfect, so clean, so flawless. I’m not ANYONE’s stan besides God. I used Eve to prove the point that hypocritical christians like you don’t allow people to change for the better. STAY judging, but you have no idea what you or your relatives will become years from now. You don’t know how your children will be. What if they’re worse than Eve? Will you help them help themselves or whill you call them bitches and hoes for the rest of their lives? Brandy’s father is a pastor, look at his children. Look at his son.

Anyhow, I hope you realize what you’ve evolved into! Don’t make the same mistakes that Eve made! She could be evolving because doors are starting to close on her, and not because she wants to show young girls the way! Losing opportunities has a way of making us evolve!
>>>>> If doors were starting to close for her, she wouldn’t have a record deal, she wouldn’t own her own clothing line and store. And she wouldn’t talk about going straight to movies if she couldn’t afford to do it. Her sitcom stopped for political reasons, not because she lost an opportunity. She made a lot of connections in hollywood. Don’t worry about her future.

I don’t need to know your personal issues, but please don’t confuse them with the trivality on this blog! This $#!T just ain’t that serious! Now, breath!
>>>>> No MEATLOAF, this shit ain’t that serious for you to call the girl all the names in the book for something that happened over 5 years ago, she did her dirt, and turned the page. Stop living in the past, move on as well and FIND A DAMN HOBBY…Like getting a life!

Excuse me ya’ll, but I am part of the true old school around. Hip-Hop has been on its death bed truly since the rise of Gangsta rap. We can sugar-coated it and blame it on crap like Laffy Taffy( its no worse than the “Rappin Duke” to me), but when Eve is rapping nonsense lyrics over tired hooks sung by Gwen Stefani and Faith Evans…that is not real hip-hop either. What she should be focusing on is finding MC Lyte’s rhyme books.

Eve is trying to give herself credibility as an MC as if she has contributed quality music to the game when she really isn’t that good herself and ALL her albums sucked. She just used hip hop as a vehicle to help her break into acting. Which is obviously what she really wants to do. She needs a little street cred again to increase her movei audience, so she is releasing a CD just to make sure ya’ll go see her in a movie when it comes out around the same time of the album release. She is so Hollywood..she ain’t slick.

@149 I have to admit when the East and West had hip hop it was hot and had lyricist (I will be honest and admit that most was coming from the East though), partying and street knowledge. So we included everything not just street knowledge. You talking about hip hop and including pretty ricky, pussycat dolls, cassie ( and you can’t even put down 50 cause he’s twice as better than young joc and d4l and them other niggas who be hopping around) and they have nothing to do with rap except 50. I’m a West side nigga and always find West side music the best but if I had to choose between East and South, it will be the East coast. South music to me is just good for clubing and East has always been my second favorite when it comes to music. Rap is being exploited and talked badly about now by every race and state. I know niggas from the South who ain’t even feeling the music now and outkast done fucked up big time. Go look at outkast older music (whick was hot) and tell me what’s up with their new music. Stop thinking everyone one wants to make the South feel bad and is jealous. Everybody is trying to be a rapper now with no real talent and sales dropping like crazy. Rappers used to go 3x platinum in 1999-20002 now look they can’t really make it over 500,000.

@73 that was funny competing with beyonce.

i do agree that when rappers or entertainers say that they do not allow their children to listen to certain things it is wrong but i guess they are just doing what they should as parents to keep their kids away from certain things it is also up to the parents of other children to censor what their children watch if they disagree with the contents. we need to stop blaming others for things that we can control especially if it has to do with young impressionable youth.

MEATLOAF,

Now, who’s judging??? lol I hope you have some spare fuses, because you bout to blow one! hehe! I really don’t want you to have a breakdown like Mariah, so lean back in your chair, put out your cigarette and relax!
>>>>>>>>> How am I judging?? They were good children turned bad, which means that your own children could turn bad just like Eve turned bad (out of necessity) as a teenage girl. It can happen to anyone and neither you nor your family are excerpt from that.

Eve is you’re stans! That’s fine! She’s not mine!
>>>>>>>> How can she be my stan when I’m not even famous? Shut your ass up you idiot. You should have said “you are Eve’s stan” for your sentence to make sense. And no I’m not, I’m only one superstar’s stan, I’m GOD’s stan.

“And I’ve NEVER EVER indulged in hoe activities!” ***tell the truth!
>>>>>>>>> Please, don’t make YOUR CASE a generality.

Chante’, you need to take responsibility for your actions! Stop blaming the church and me for your nasty little mouth and disposition!
>>>>>>>>>>>> Are you retarded?? I left the hypocrits with their hypocrisy, and built my own little church in my home with some christians and non-christians, lost souls and found souls, with whom I share the word of God and talk about my love for Jesus. The Church is the PEOPLE no matter where we are at the end of the day. And my new church (my home) is better than any place gathering all the Meatloafs of the world.

And, I have no tolerance or acceptance for gays and lesbians!
>>>>>>>> Who cares? Jesus loves them!

***man, you really got him fooled! lol Yo ass ain’t no “good soul”! And, you may know what a kind heart looks like, but you don’t have one! He enjoys spending time with you, because you giving it up like a Las Vegas working girl! Don’t believe anything else! Stop givig him the swatch and he’ll leave you standing at the alter like the Game did Ms. Butterfield! Then, you can throw yourself a singles party in yo apartment! hehe!
>>>>>>>>>> You don’t know how we live and what we do. You judge and assume again, not a good representation of Christianity, Meatloaf. Work on those flaws, there’s always room for change.

Anyhow sis, get rid of the stress and stop cut and pasting everything I write! I know what I’ve said! Just make your point and stop tying up all the blog space! lol!
>>>>>>>>>> Well stop thinking you can stop me from cutting and pasting what I want, ESPECIALLY WHEN YOU CUTTED AND PASTED WHAT I WROTE in your latest post. That’s typical of christians of your kind “do as I say not as I do”. Stop reading my post if you don’t like it. Seems to me that you’re stressing too much over the fact that I cut and paste what you write. LMAO!

Bye virgin!
>>>>>>>>> Bye hypocrit!
