Eve - Me N My (Up In The Club)
Artist: Eve
Producer: Salaam Remi and Benga da Afro Warrior
Album: Flirt
Label: From the Rib/RED
Tambourine and Give It to You both won positive reviews when they hit the Booth back in ‘08, but those singles weren’t enough to save Eve‘s senior album (then titled Here I Am) from a seemingly endless series of delays. Now, though, the Philadelphian femcee is back with a new track she hopes will finally get the ball rolling on Flirt, which will be her first full-length in seven years. Though Eve’s no stranger to the dancefloor, Me N My (Up In The Club) may still come as a bit of a surprise to longtime fans. With a self-explanatory concept (the artist and her crew are in the club, and they’re gonna dance) and fairly minimal lyrical content, this track is all about Salaam Remi and Benga da Afro Warrior‘s electro-informed instrumental, driven by a muffled, jittery bassline that melts into slippery synth squelches on the hook. MNM (UitC)‘s propulsive, edgy sound will certainly get the attention of hardcore club heads, but will it be music to the ears of Eve’s established fanbase? As always, I’ll leave it to Booth readers to make the final call.

When I heard this song yesterday, i was like... EVE???? lol. this is one of those high energy songs for the club! like Shake N Bake yesterday except this gets u more pumped. (in detroit this wat they play late at night on 97.9 and we can catch it in toledo lol)
anyway Im all for established artists trying somethin new as long as it works! This works |

Really dissapointed in Eve. She just gets lost in the the whole elctro beat and the "me & my bitches" gets annoying after while. I hope the album will drop in the near future.

I am not feeling this at all. It's not catchy, the beat is annoying. This is just not working.

I rarely rate stuff garbage and I know that Eve is a pretty big name, but come on, maybe I need a couple more listens.

If you expected the old EvE your gonna come in here and be disappointed!!!!
But if your open to old artist trying new styles of music this is pretty good!!!! |

Somebody page SWIZZ BEATS, hell, call Drag-On, because this new sound is not going to impress prospective fans or find her old ones creeping back. Where is that Philly swagger? Let me hear THAT Eve.

UGGGG! I usually like salaam Remi, and I see what they are trying to do here, but this song is terrible. A for effort and originality but F for everything else.

The beat is definitely made for the club but I think Eve can come harder than this...I almost expect a song like this from Missy with Eve as feature (e.g. This is for my people)

Get Swizzy on the phone...
This is pretty whack from Eve, who I usually consider to be the best female rapper around currently. This track may have changed my opinion about her. |

WOW!! EVE?? In no way is this good. Even with the electro boost to get you pumping.. her flo is dead and lifeless. It doesnt sound like she is feelin it just about the same as me! nada.

Well, ppl have been all over the place on this one. I love EVE and she is always pushing the line, whether on fashion or music, it is pretty repetitive, but I like it. I can't say a whole album with the same feel is gonna work, but she knows much better than that.
