Eve wants us to pretend as though “She Bad Bad” never happened so let’s humour as we listen to her new song, “Make it Out this Town (Ft. Gabe Saporta)”. This latest offering from the former top-selling rapper is now being touted as the first official single from her upcoming Lip Lock album.
“She Bad Bad” failed to make a scratch on the Billboard Hot 100 so it has been placed on the back burner as a “buzz” single. In other words, the song flopped and we’re supposed to overlook it. Hey, I believe in second chances to let’s just smile and nod.
Lip Lock, featuring Dawn Richard, Chrisette Michele and Snoop Lion, will be released on May 14th. Listen to “Make it Out this Town” below:
“Make it Out this Town” is far more radio-friendly than “She Bad Bad” but it still lacks the punch that many expect from Eve. In fact, the Top 40 direction of the song is quite reminiscent of Nelly’s “Just a Dream”, which was a shallow bid for airplay that lacked depth. Still, Eve needs a hit in any form so “Make it Out this Town” is certainly better than nothing.
