There are 16 songs on this album carrying that sort of spirit, complete with tin whistles and bagpipes. It all feels like it was made in the best of times, and it is a love letter to the fans and family of the Dropkick Murphys, who get as much a kick out of these stories as the band does. It's not brilliant, but it's a good, old-fashioned party. It's Eve ripping it up with all her posse on her new album, Scorpion. She's gathered all her friends and mixed up some crazy new tunes that will most definitely be blasting out of my car this summer.
Every song is an anthem, an inspiration even, and every word demands attention.
Eve's rapping is rough and her singing is as smooth as her lip gloss. The singing is a new experience for Eve, her last album was expressly rap. The new addition suits her well though. Included on the list of guest appearances is Gwen Steffani, lead singer of the popular ska-pop band No Doubt. Other guests include DMX, Mo'nique, Damian and Stephen Marley, The Lox, and many, many more.
