Faith Evans Songs
After ending with Bad Boy Evans contracted with Capitol Records company, becoming the first contemporary R&B artist to do so, and started work on her fourth studio album The First Lady, named after her nickname on her former label.[8] As opposed to having an in-house team of producers who supplied most of the previous material, she and Russaw were able to gain more creative control of the album and consulted producers such as Bryan-Michael Cox, Jermaine Dupri, Mike Caren, Pharrell Williams, and Chucky Thompson to contribute to it.[9] Upon its release in April 2005, The First Lady scored at number two on the Billboard 200 and #1 of the Top R&B/Hip-Hop Albums chart, becoming Evans' best-charting album to date. It was eventually certified gold by the RIAA.[10]At the end of the year, Evans released A Faithful Christmas, a holiday album of traditional Christmas songs and original tracks. The effort would become her last release on Capitol Records as the company was bought during 2007.[11]

There is a lot more to the catalog of Faith Evans than just the hits songs though. She has never released a poor album and she has so many album cuts that easily could have been singles. For that reason you will see that we have a very large honorable mention section of picks in addition to our top 10.

Following a 5-year hiatus Faith Evans created her own record label imprint in 2010.[22] She named the imprint Prolific Music Group and hired top talent to build the record label from scratch.[23] Evans began recording songs with Keyshia Cole, Redman, Snoop Dogg and Raekwon, among others for the labels freshman album. Evans signed a deal with independent record label E1 Entertainment later that year. Her fifth studio album Something About Faith was released on October 5, 2010, in the United States,[24] where it debuted and peaked at number fifteen on the Billboard 200 and number one on the Independent Albums chart.[25] Something About Faith has spawned the leading single "Gone Already", which spent over thirty-three weeks on the US Billboard Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs chart, where it peaked at number twenty-two.[26]

Before and since her time with Biggie, Faith's been known as a singer who blends smooth with street, and remains a representative of sorts for the love her husband gave in his life. Here's five songs she made a major impact on, both solo and as a guest.
"Soon As I Get Home" was the second single on Evans' debut album, Faith. It's a story about a struggling relationship, with a promise from one person to make up for whatever they did wrong to other, as soon as they get home. Some say Evans wrote this as the apologizer, others think she wanted her husband, The Notorious B.I.G., to say these words to her. Either way, it's still considered today one of the best soul-pop songs from the 1990s. When Evans was asked to choose her favourite songs from her career, guess which topped the list?
Something..., in comparison to 2005's The First Lady, has three more full-length tracks and the most collaborative songs to be featured in one spot, thanks to the appearances of both evolving and established artists, such as Estelle, Raekwon, Lil Mo, Kelly Price, Keyshia Cole and Snoop Dogg (thankfully, not all at the same time). Producers like Malik Pendleton, Mike City, Chucky Thompson and Carvin and Ivan help with the heavy lifting, but Ms. Evans is in full creative control and pours her very essence into the music. Since she's one of those sangers (no, that's not a typo) who can belt out the fine print on a credit card statement and turn it into a Top Ten ringtone; the guests serve more as variety rather than support. The first collabo, "Way You Move," is pleasant, if too safe for its own good; but who knew that she and Keyshia Cole would complement one another as well as they do in the synth-driven, Slick Rick-interpolating "Can't Stay Away," or that she could be as grimy as Redman on the twitching and pulsating "Party"?
