Eve Remembers Time With Dr. Dre At Aftermath Records

For the people that don't know, Eve was signed to Dr. Dre's Aftermath Records back in 1998 when Dre was just starting out the label. She was going by Eve Of Destruction back then, but she got dropped from the label before anything could come out of her deal. She dropped the "...Of Destruction" from her name, and got signed to Ruff Ryderz/Interscope. She blew up with her "What You Want" single, and she became the hottest female rapper in the 1999. She went on to have a very successful rap career.













In a recent interview, she recalls her beginning-

"Aftermath was my first home, with Dr. Dre," Eve reminded viewers when she appeared on Wednesday's "RapFix Live." "But me and Dre just couldn't get along. ... I'm a strong chick and I don't like being told what to do. I don't care if you're the best at what you do. Dre just knows how to push your buttons, but I just have to say every time he pushed my buttons, he got the best out of me. So he knew what he was doin'.

I can't remember exactly what record, but he made me say one word over, like 45 times. I swear to God; I'm not lying," she said anecdotally. "He wouldn't let me out of the studio. I kicked the mic down and threw a bottle at the glass, and after I did all that, I said it the right way and he let me out." (MTV)
