Can Robin Thicke Help Eve Finally Get Her Album Out?
ARTIST: Eve
SONG TITLE: “Fantasy (feat. Robin Thicke)”
WEB DEBUT: June 24, 2008
ONE-LISTEN VERDICT: This song has been on the tracklisting of Eve’s Here I Am for ages, following label changes and aborted promotional activities. Vh1 published an interview with Eve about this specific collaboration almost exactly a year ago, so it’s surprising the song has been able to remain any kind of secret. And while it’s a solid track, with Robin Thicke aptly playing the role of Eve’s seducer, it’s hard to believe something this mellow is going to succeed the way the album’s first single “Tambourine” did in early 2007 (sigh). Too assertive to be a sex kitten and too mature for her old gangsta persona, it’s doubtful there’s much of a market for Eve unless Swizz Beatz hands her a party.
