Faith Evans' second album Keep the Faith was met with quite a bit of anticipation.
The album was released three years after her acclaimed, soulful, and raw debut Faith, and in that time she had witnessed the murder of her husband the Notorious B.I.G., which led to the biggest hit of her career (and one of the biggest of the 1990s), the tribute...
Evans possesses a beautiful voice, is a gifted songwriter, and happily steers clear of the tacky clichés that burden so much contemporary R&B. So despite the heavy reliance on ballads, this is actually a fine album, and is without a doubt a highlight of 1990s soul-pop music.

 Faith Evans
Raised in New Jersey by her mother and grandparents, Faith Evans began to develop her vocal talents in the church choir at the age of two, later moving on to roles in musicals during her high school years.
Evans initially established herself as a songwriter and background singer, penning tracks for Mary J. Blige and adding her voice to recordings by Color Me Badd and Pebbles.
The next record of her own, Keeping the Faith, did not surface until 1998 and met with somewhat diminshed success from that of her debut, although the single Love Like This and her contributions to Whitney Houston's Heartbreak Hotel album would both earn her Grammy nominations.

Faith Evans weathered many storms before emerging from under slain husband Notorious B.I.G.'s shadow to obtain a foothold in the industry as a well-respected R&B singer.
Evans celebrates her faith in love and togetherness on the gorgeous ballad "Tru Love," which is co-written with her husband Todd Russaw.
Evans plagues the punchy Neptunes production and top-notch Pusha T cameo from "Goin Out" with a tedious chorus, and the clichéd "Everwonder," a collaboration with former labelmate Mario Winans, is non-distinguishable from previous material by the singer/songwriter/producer.

 Faith Evans: The First Lady - PopMatters Music Review   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-22)
Evans is a more ethereal singer than Scott or Badu -- a vocalist who reaches up for a reedy high note that oozes relaxation and never seems to be lecturing you on gospel prowess like Whitney.
Evans makes a track like "Stop N Go" seem like a slice of easy pleasure where Scott or Badu would have you cruising closer to the ground.
Evans supplies the gospel chorus and some obbligato around that chorus, but it is an odd way to end a collection that seems like a bid to make her the kind star that Aretha once was.

Sadness is etched in Faith Evans's smoky vocals, an underpinning of regret and the blues that gives her a vulnerability and realness that's compelling.
That hint of heartache is perfectly suited for love-lost midtempo ballads, like her 1995 hit "You Used to Love Me," and in many ways Evans (once married to the late Notorious B.I.G.) is a modern-day torch singer.
Yet like Mary J. Blige, her sister in sorrow, Evans has added more uptempo rhythm to her moody mix, as evidenced by the thumping first single off her third CD.
