Music industry veterans Eve, Brandy, and Naturi Naughton joined co-star Nadine Velazquez and Variety journalist Angelique Jackson during the Entertainment All Access experience at the 2021 ESSENCE Festival of Culture presented by Coca-Cola to preview their upcoming ABC drama series, “Queens.”
In this hotly-anticipated musical drama featuring original compositions from legendary producer Swizz Beatz, the four actresses portray estranged members of Hip-Hop supergroup Nasty Bitches, who reunite after years apart to seize an opportunity to reclaim their notoriety. Now in their 40’s and after being out of touch for years, can these ladies re-spark the swagger that made them industry heavy hitters in the 90’s?
As an artist herself, Eve says she identifies with the plight of former rapper Brianna aka “Professor Sex” and understands the need to keep that inner swag spark lit. “They were the biggest hip-hop group in their times,” she said. “They were those girls, period. Every girl wanted to be them, every guy wanted to be with them. And, just like in real life, life happens. But you always need that fire back. You always have to get back to ‘that girl.’”
