#20 | Rapsody | Eve
Jamla
According to Marcus Willis: “With every track mononymously named after iconic Black women, Rapsody’s Eve defiantly gives voice to that oft-ignored sovereignty through songs unwaveringly dedicated to exploring, exemplifying, and exalting the diverse facets of their experience. Even the LP’s title is a sly acknowledgment of how Black women have been exed out of history, despite being paramount to its very creation and existence….Though she can rip a mic to shreds with the best of them, with Eve, Rapsody continues to show and prove she’s aiming at and well-equipped for far weightier goals.”
