[ BAD BOY ] A lot has happened since Faith was a little girl in Newark, New Jersey. By the tender age of 4, Faith figured out she could blow from the tears her gospel renditions evoked from her church's congregation. Even as a high school honor student who went on to earn a full scholarship to Fordham University, Faith Evans knew she was born to sing. She left Fordham after a year and ended up doing background vocals and writing songs for the likes of Mary J. Blige, Pebbles, and Christopher Williams. Later, she met Puff Daddy who could say only that her voice reminded him of rain - "...the fury of a storm, the baptism of showers, and the serenity of mist all wrapped in one." As the First Lady of Bad Boy, she released her first album, Faith. Somewhere in the midst of all this, she kicked it on the phone with a rapper named the Notorious B.I.G., f ell in love, and got married two weeks later. However, tragedy struck soon after, giving way to her unwanted rise as hip-hop's most memorable widow. Although B.I.G.s death changed Faith's life forever, she wants her fans to know that she's doing her best to move on. Not surprisingly the most significant song of her sophomore album is "Keep the Faith."
