Jun 18, 2013Not every track on Lip Lock is a home run, but she bats for the cycle here and only strikes out a few times.
-
May 24, 2013Lip Lock is exactly the kind of pop album that rappers set on crossover success should be making.
-
May 17, 2013The crossover “Make It Out This Town” is too obvious a stab at pop psychology and chart topping but that’s a rare misfire. The set is filled with quotable lines and tough but inviting beats.
-
May 17, 2013A couple more bitchy bits like this ["Wanna Be"] and the album could win over old fans with ease, but if Lip Lock isn't mean enough, well, neither is Eve. She's sweeter than before and musically more adventurous.

May 17, 2013Lip Lock may not be the best rap album of 2013, but it's interesting, and it's honest. After 11 years, that's a respectable way to ride out.
-
May 31, 2013Several guests appear on the album, but they don’t make much of an impression since it’s hard to match Eve’s energy.
-
May 17, 2013The heart of the issue with Lip Lock is that Eve hasn’t restored the command she once had, which subsequently allows these new sounds to lead her down a road of uncertainty.

The SourceJul 2, 2013Unfortunately, the concept-less and energy-deficient album leaves no room for anyone to make any lasting impression on the listener. [Jul 2013, p.89]
