She also assured us that the inspiration behind ‘Eve’ was all about her writing her love letter to women of color, including herself; “I wanted to do a whole project because I wanted to write my love letter for myself, and for us. We should be celebrating each other, and I wanted to tell the real story of who we (black women) are; all of us. We all should be celebrated, appreciated, and loved on; and we are not all the same.”
