Live Performance at LoudNProud

I'm sitting on the bed, laptop on my laps, watching my friend Laila get dressed...ErRrr..im not exactly watching her - watching her, i mean, i'm typing right? Haha. Im trying to focus real hard now as i type, desperately racking my brain to bring back the memories of my live performance two nights ago in VI, Lagos. Its not that long ago right? I shouldn't have forgotten right? Oh well, i didn't forget stuff. Blaaaddy hell! That was like the best performance of my career! Well as of now. hehe


Im just still in a daze. You dont have the slightest clue the kind of joy i felt after my performance. It was the most beautiful relieving feeling ever. I kinda feel that way everytime i perform with a live band but this was different. Song after song, my mind, body and soul just kept on soaring and i felt super high. God i love performing! 


      ''Gimme a live band, Gimme a time span, Gimme a mic without a cord in my right hand...'' -   'the   Squeeze, Eva'

--Laila is still getting dressed oh!---

As always, it was the same nervous feeling i had just before my set kicked off. The very beautiful and talented EFYA performed just before me. She has such a sweet beautiful voice, after watching her perform i really wanna get to work with her so y'all should watch out for that. When i did get on stage however, i think for some reason, not just the fact that it was a live set, i suddenly felt relaxed, composed, confident. Remi Buttons, the designer responsible for my chains and padlock assembled jacket, seemed to think my confidence on stage semmed from the fact that i was wear her jacket. hehe..maybe.
But yo! it was a really mad show, i had so much fun and the guests loved it! I have it on video too!! Nope, you are gonna have to wait a little more to see that one. But below are a couple of pictures from the show. Notice the padlocks on my jacket? LOL!

MO, Eva, Deleke

Who wears padlocks tho? I need help!

Thats me bah??

See how i look like im singing 'I'll always Love you" by Whitney Houston. Yimu!!  #RIPWH

My drummer had to show his face sha...

Thats me right thurrr! Wink**

 Ok, thats abourrit. For now. As soon as videos are uploaded, id be sure to let you know. Thanks for reading my blog again, do come back soon. Better yet, Follow this blog!
Oh Laila? She's done dressing. Now she's curling her hair. Its Valentine's eve, you go fear cruise na! LMAO

the GIGO EP - 20.11.2011

                               

Oh My! the GIGO EP is finally here! I am as excited as you are trust me.. or wait, are you? Gaaaddeemmit i really hope you are oh. Ehen! because whats all these work for if you aint?

Haha! Really this project has been ready for like forever! yes ke. I just wasnt sure i was ready for it or you were either.

You have enjoyed the first two singles off it - 'I Done Did it' and 'Down Low ft Shank'. Now you have 5more songs to enjoy off the EP. Yeah Yeah i know i said the EP would have only 5tracks, i just decided to put out all 7 because they are songs that reflect exactly what GIGO is about.

Now lets talk about GIGO for a minute shall we?

Garbage in - Garbage out is a computer programming term. Meaning what you give is what you get. As regards my music, im giving back what i have been inspired by, what i love and enjoy and some of the sounds that totally reflect my persona as an artist.

This is my baby project, no it is not my album, yes my album is in the works and would be released in 2012 by God's grace... and yes i cant wait to release this project finally.

When i began my career as a rapper, everybody said 'Yo, you should work on a mixtape. Hop on a couple of tracks and get your name out there.'

On the contrary i felt like i could do better by giving you the original me. And thats exactly what i did with 'the GIGO EP'. No restrictions, no rules, just exactly what i want and how i want it. I really hope you guys enjoy this project as much as i did working on it.

There's already a collaboration with Shank you know about, what about the surprise collaborations y'all didnt see coming? Hehehe...nahhh i aint saying nothing. You gonna have to wait till the 20th of November to hear for yourself. 

Let me take this time out to personally say thank you! For all the support i get from you guys. Thanks for helping me through the Nigeria Entertainment Awards and the the 'Exquisite Lady of the Year awards 2011' where i won the award for 'Female artiste of the Year -Rap'. 

You guys have been absolutely amazing! 

Oh Yes! 'the GIGO EP' would be out 20-11-2011

Get ready to explore Eva.. get ready to enjoy what i have to offer. Some criticism would be nice, its the only way i can grow as an artist and be better for you all. I nor talk say make una go arrange yab come give me oh! Ehen! LOL.

Na only you grew up on 2face?" *Gbagaun intended, thanks for noticing. Aproko. 

Dang! Even my Momma grew up on 2face and she's over a decade older than he is. Buahahahaha

I dreamed of kissing him when i was only 14, i dreamed of marrying him when i was 15, i dreamed of having his baby when i was 16... sha sha fastforward to right now, im dreaming of having him on a couple of my songs. Yes ke, Oliver lomo latile. One song with 2Face wouldnt be enough kwa! LMAO

Eva Shakes it Down with Psquare

Oh my! I realize i haven't written in a long time! What a weisst i have been sha! What's it been? Like 4months? No? But here i am! Eat me if you may, as long as you start below though, so i could watch your face turn gray from the disgusting taste of my homosapien organics. Buhahahahaa!

Welcome back to my blog! Its no news anymore that yours truly, yes ke, that would be me **clears throat** was featured on 'The INVASION' album by the talented duo, Psquare. It would be difficult for me to write about this without taking you back in time. Remember when i wrote this? The 7-up concert in Lagos that brought amazing talents like Sasha, 2face, Dr Sid, Psquare and Baba Akon together on stage? Uuuuuhhh i couldnt stop talking about it. I was in the crowd *not VIP, hisssss* and it was the best concert i had ever attended. There i was taking picture after picture with my phone, screaming at the top of my voice, rapping 'Adara' along with Sasha, and i finally died when PSquare took the stage.

I have been a devoted fan of the duo since 'Senorita'. Back then MiTv rotated the video like everyday! It was like we tuned to MiTv at a particular time cause we already knew the video was gonna come on. I had a stupid girl crush on
