According to a press release issued earlier this week, acquisition powerhouse Iconoclast has purchased the publishing rights to Grammy winning Rap artist Eve's music catalog. According to Music Business World the transaction was an eight figure deal for somewhere between $25 million to $50 million. Eve debuted in 1999 with Let There Be Eve, and became the third female Rap artist in history to reach number 1 on the Billboard 200.

"Eve became a defining voice in Hip-Hop, known for her lyrical prowess, dynamic flow, and unique fusion of rap and R&B influences," Iconoclast said of her releases such as "Gangsta Lovin'", "Love Is Blind", "Who's That Girl", and 2002's "Let Me Blow Ya Mind" with Gwen Stefani, which earned her a Grammy for Best Rap/Sung Collaboration.

"Eve’s contributions to hip hop and popular culture are unparalleled. She’s not only a great artist but a true pioneer for women in the genre," said Iconoclast founder Oliver Chastan. “We are honored to help preserve and elevate her incredible legacy, ensuring that her influence continues to inspire future generations of artists and fans alike.” Eve recently released her memoir, Who's That Girl.
