Rapsody Eve T-Shirt

Description

Sixteen tracks. Sixteen Black women. One of the most intentional albums of the last decade.

Rapsody dropped Eve on August 23, 2019 through Jamla and Roc Nation, and built every song around a woman who shaped her: “Nina,” “Aaliyah,” “Oprah,” “Serena,” “Maya,” “Afeni,” “Hatshepsut.” She flipped Nina Simone’s “Strange Fruit” to open the record. On “Ibtihaj” she brought in GZA and D’Angelo over a 9th Wonder beat built on Liquid Swords. Queen Latifah passed the torch on “Hatshepsut,” and J. Cole showed up for “Sojourner.”

This is the Jamla sound at full strength: 9th Wonder, Khrysis, Eric G, Nottz and Mark Byrd behind the boards, soul-rooted and drum-heavy, with a North Carolina emcee bodying every bar. Eve is conscious rap without the lecture. It’s a history lesson you nod your head to and a tribute album that hits harder than most solo debuts. This tee carries the Rapsody script and her braided profile, drawn the way the album deserves.
