Better known as Eve or E-V-E, is an American rapper, singer, and actress. She adopted the name Gangsta in high school as part of an all-female group called EDGP (pronounced Egypt), and eventually went solo as Eve of Destruction.

Jeffers has sold millions of albums during her musical career. Her first three albums have so far reached 3.6 million copies sold. Eve has been awarded 1 Grammy Award over the years. In 2003, she became the star of her own TV show, Eve, which lasted for 3 seasons. The rapper/singer/actress has also achieved success in fashion as she started a clothing line titled “Fetish.” She ranked # 48 on VH1’s “50 Greatest Women Of The Video Era” show list.

During her early years in Philadelphia, Eve’s first musical interest was singing. She sang in many choirs and even made an all-female singing group (Dope Girl Posse or D.G.P.) with a manager. This group covered songs from En Vogue and Color Me Badd. After the group’s manager saw the rap group ABC, they suggested that the group raps and Eve stuck with it. She then went on to form a rapping group. “Islam is a beautiful religion. But right now, with my career and my life, I can’t live the Sunni Muslim way. I refuse to be a hypocrite and cover my head on Friday, go pray, and then the rest of the week I’m out cursing and drinking–and performing. So right now I’m just comfortable with God.” – Eve, female rapper and member of Ruff Ryders, in an interview.

The follow-up to Let There Be Eve, Scorpion, was released in 2001. Its first single, “Who’s That Girl” guaranteed the rapper first international success. The second single, “Let Me Blow Ya Mind” (with Gwen Stefani of No Doubt) and produced by Dr. Dre, became a pop success, peaking at #2 on the Billboard Hot 100. The song won a Grammy Award for Best Rap/Sung Collaboration, and Scorpion eventually went platinum.

Eve’s third album, Eve-Olution, was released in summer 2002 (see 2002 in music) and peaked at #6 on Billboard. In the meantime, the album’s first single, “Gangsta Lovin'”, with Alicia Keys, became another #2 hit. The second and final single, “Satisfaction”, only saw moderate success again. Eve-Olution was a flop and became Eve’s worst selling album to date. Afterwards, Eve closed out 2003 by signing to UPN for a television show about a fashion designer titled, Eve, and a feature on Mary J. Blige’s single, “Not Today”.
