Eve Names New Female Rappers She Thinks Have Staying Power, ‘But I Don't Think It's Going to Be A Lot'
Eve recently shouted out Doechii, Cardi B, GloRilla, and Latto as the female rappers with the most staying power during an interview with Fat Joe and Jadakiss on the Joe and Jada Podcast. Reflecting on her career and sharing her thoughts on the current state of female rap, the First Lady of Ruff Ryders had some strong opinions. At one point, Fat Joe remarked that while there are many women in rap today making good money, he doesn't believe there are a lot of female MCs with 'sustainability.' Jadakiss chose to stay out of this conversation, but Eve agreed with Fat Joe's assessment.

'I think there are some, but I don't think it's going to be a lot. … I think Doechii will be there. I think Cardi has made her way. I mean, I love GloRilla; I think Glo will be there. I think there's some, but I don't think there's going to be a lot. … Latto's dope. There's a lot of crap out, but yeah.' Eve's comments come after Nicki Minaj showed respect for the veteran MC in 2024. In a heartfelt post, Nicki thanked Eve for being a bold trendsetter for women in rap. 'I DEFINITELY remember how, when you took the game by storm, there were some ppl who couldn't hide their insecurities,' Nicki Minaj tweeted in part. 'Even tho it's swept under the rug now, I remember that you handled it with grace but ALSO a big sprinkle of unapologetic TALENT & charisma. You soared & soared. Classic music w/the illest team, to the BIG SCREEN. And made it look easy, too…' Check out Eve's comments in the interview at the 33-minute mark below.

MORGANTOWN, (WBOY) — Giving back to its community, that's how Ruff Ryders roll, as the Morgantown-based organization donated Easter Baskets to WVU Medicine Children's. On Friday, patients of WVU Medicine Children's Hospital received Easter baskets courtesy of Ruff Ryders and the University Town Center Walmart. This is the second year of Easter basket donations, with the organization donating 70 baskets last year. Baskets were filled with different interactive items for children including stuffed animals and coloring books. 12 News spoke with Ruff Ryders' prospect manager, Knight Vision, on why the organization chooses to contribute to the community in this way. Mon Medical Center hosts flag raising ceremony for Donate Life Month 'We love our motorcycles, we love our cars, we love our trucks and recreation, but the biggest thing is the family aspect, and it's not just having a family bond with one another, but our community is part of our family,' Vision said. 'We like to make sure that we step up and we plug in any holes and fill in any gaps that we can…whether it is helping those with special needs, with medical or finances, or hospitals or schools.' Ruff Ryders also volunteers with Stepping Stones, first responders, women and children's shelters, homeless shelters and other in need.
