RAPPER EVE Partners with YOUTUBE on TAMBOURINE

They're Looking for Your Personal Best

Alright you music fans and wannabee video producers, this one's for you!

Rapper E-V-E has teamed up with YOU TUBE to launch the video contest of all contests. They are asking for your submissions for EVE's much anticipated new album "Here I Am," which is due out August 7th.

So, here's what you've got to do...grab your crew, get a set, pull out your "Tambourine" and start shooting your best video yet. The winner of the contest will be selected by EVE (the original pitbull in a skirt). As a winner, you will not only have bragging rights, you get a 58" Panasonic HDTV on which you can play your winning video over and over again while shouting out "whose your mama or daddy," depending on your preference.

If for some strange reason you don't know who E-V-E is, she has found success in music, tv, fashion and film. Her debut album came in 1999, and was entitled "Let there be EVE...Ruff Riders First Lady." Ms. EVE was also the second woman in Hip Hop to enter Billboard 200 at #1. She has teamed up with artists like Gwen Stefani on "Let Me Blow Your Mind," which earned a Grammy for best Rap/Song Collaboration. She has also collaborated with MA$E, DMX, Dru Hill, The Roots, Blackstreet, Janet Jackson and more. In 2003 her TV debut came with, EVE in which she played the character Shelly, a fashion designer. That brings me to the fashionable part of her life. .... EVE is the soul and influence behind the clothing line Fetish. Her film career has been just as diverse as the rest of her life. Vin Diesel in XXX, Ice Cube in Barbershop /Barbershop 2, Queen Latifah in Cookout and Kevin Bacon in The Woodsman have all found themselves next to EVE on the big screen.

With the launching of her new album, EVE is back and apparently, "the only female rapper in the game" right now. "Here I Am" will showcase the production talents of Timbaland, Scott Storch, Swiz z Beatz, Cool Dre, Pharrell and Sean Paul. Rumor also has it that Sizzla, Sean Paul, T.I., Mary J. Blige & Robin Thicke will all be making guest appearances on the album.

Now that you know the details and background, you better go get yourself a "Tambourine" and hit RECORD.... 'cause this could be your big break...and don't forget my 20% for giving up the GOODS.

GOOD LUCK PEOPLE.....See You At the Top!

    Good Luck Donna and anyone else that chooses to do this!

    Great info - If she's good enough for Gwen, I'm sure I'd like her and I could use the TV ;-)

    Um, Gary, woooooooooow. *shaking my head and laughing* Anyway, if Eve does a cut with Robin Thicke, I'm all over that! I think Robin is a genius at what he does and I got much respect for Eve for several songs off her first album. I still blast the edited version of "What Y'all Want." I dug her in "Barbershop" with Michael Ealy but I still say she looks better with J.T. on both the movie and her sitcom, acting or not! Well, let me see what Eve is up to then. The dance was too cute in Kelly Rowland's video with both of them doing their thing.

    Very nicely done.

    Now that is more information then I needed but at least you're in the spirit! (visualizing previous description)...

    Interesting article and promotional stunt. I suspect there will be many submissions. The G-man would love to grab his tambourine and GET BUSY too, but my thong is in the cleaners and won't be available any time soon. Damn!!!
