Something About Faith

Released in 2010, Something About Faith marked Faith Evans' first studio album in five years and her debut on her own independent label, Prolific Music Group. Following a hiatus from the industry, the album serves as a bridge between her 'First Lady of Bad Boy' legacy and her evolution into an elder stateswoman of R&B. Sonically, it moves away from the sample-heavy production of her 90s peak toward a more 'Adult Contemporary' soul sound, featuring collaborations with producers like Carvin & Ivan and guest appearances from Snoop Dogg, Redman, and Kelly Price. The album is notable for its heavy emphasis on gospel-style vocal arrangements, particularly on tracks like the intro and 'Troubled World,' reflecting Evans' personal growth and spiritual return. Critics noted that while it lacked a massive crossover hit, it solidified her status as one of the premier vocalists of her generation, praised for her technical precision and emotional delivery.
