For this edition of our Artist Top 10 Best Songs List series, we turn our attention to the discography of the legendary Faith Evans. Since Faith has already achieved celebrity status, it might be easy to assume that her music is overrated in some capacity. However, a quick revisit to her catalog and it’s easy to see that it’s not even close to the case.
In fact, Faith Evans made a name for herself as one of the premiere R&B artists in the 90’s and has remained one of the most consistent until this current day. Her vocals and songwriting put her among the greats and her ability to create timeless R&B ballads and dance floor anthems have solidified her legacy.
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.

Soon As I Get Home (from the “Faith” album)
We’ve been on record as saying this might just be the best R&B ballad in the 90’s.
Kissing You (from the “Waiting to Exhale” soundtrack)
Faith provided this beautiful gem as her contribution to the star studded “Waiting to Exhale” soundtrack.
Love Like This (from the “Keep the Faith” album)
This song has gone on to become the signature jam that Faith is known for. Put this one on and it will immediately start a party!
Never Gonna Let You Go (from the “Keep the Faith” album)
This timeless Babyface penned ballad is a reminder of the amazing love songs Faith has given us.
I Love You (from the “Faithfully” album)
There aren’t many who can compare with the lush and beautiful vocals over a well written love song like this.
Can’t Believe (featuring Carl Thomas) (from the “Faithfully” album)
This duet among Bad Boy labelmates has always been a standout and remains in rotation.
Tru Love (from “The First Lady” album)
Did we mention that Faith Evans has a knack for creating timeless love songs? Here is another great example.
Stop N Go (from “The First Lady” album)
This Carvin & Ivan produced album cut could have easily been a single; the creative lyrics made it a winner.
Gone Already (from the “Something About Faith” album)
A moving song full of passion and emotion along with a flawless vocal performance by Faith.
