5.0 out of 5 stars The First Lady Of Hip-Hop Soul, 21 May 2005
By Phill "thanewdanger" (London) - See all my reviews
(TOP 500 REVIEWER)   
Faith Evans was made a household name in 1997 when she collaborated with P.Diddy & 112 on the tribute to her husband B.I.G. Little did people know her career started in 1995 with her debut "Faith" which had the smash it single "Soon As I Get Home". 10 years later Faith releases her 4th studio album after a 4 year hiatus she returns back on form with the soon-to-be classic album which is already certified Gold in the U.S thats 500,000 copies sold in jus over a month "The First Lady" is back!

1.Goin' Out (Featuring Pharrell & Pusha T) - One of the highlights on the album this Neptunes produced track is one of the best up-tempo tracks shes ever done its a song about just going out and having fun it has a great beat accompanied by a rap by Pusha T of The Clipse possible single material 10/10

2.Again - The lead single which was a smash hit all over the world even reached #12 on the UK charts which i think is her highest solo position ever its got a nice sulty 70's vibe to it,its a really good way of gettin back at the media for sayin she had a drug problem beautiful vocals on this one 10/10

3.I Don't Need It - Middle Eastern-type beat at the start then it flips it into a soulful groove the lyrics are good and her vocals shine on this one too.It's dancable and is just a feel good song 10/10

4.Stop N Go - Faith dabbles in a bit of Neo-Soul with this track which stands as one of my favourite songs she uses basketball as a metaphore for her relationship with her man its a good song to just sit down and groove to the chorus is really nice its just a really nice soulful song 10/10

5.Mesmerized - Rumoured to be the next single its got a really great jazzy groove to it u cant help but tap your foot considering the popularity of this track this could be a sucessful single release lets hope so 'coz its criminal to ignore this track 10/10

6.Tru Love - To my suprise on readin the booklet i noticed Jermaine Dupri produced this song which i was really shocked because its nothin' like hes older productions (Usher's U-Turn, Jagged Edge's Where The Part At) its a really sweet song about her husband (forget his name now) i play this song alot 10/10

7.Jealous - Before the release of the album this was rumoured to be the 1st lead single instead on "Again" i dont think would have done as good as "Again" has but its a really reall good song we all feel like this u just gotta listen to lyrics it actually made me laugh 'coz the song just reminds me of myself. I'm loving the fluffy piano loop pure class! 10/10

8.Ever Wonder (Featuring Mario Winans) - Now lets recap Mario Winans had that #1 single "I Dont Wanna Know" as productions concerned nowadays he just doesnt change his style this song sounds like Tamia's Mr Cool & Guerilla Blacks tune its a good duet but its the weakest song i usually skip it 3/10

9.Catching Feelings - Great slowjam its very dreamy and floaty but..it just seems like a song Blu Cantrell dismissed not a favourite at all 5/10

10.Get Over You - Ahh we're back on track with great songs its got that Musiq Soulchild vibe to it airy and old skool nice vocals the lyrics arent the best but its a good song 8/10

11.Until You Came - My favourite song on the album why? well not only has it got that great old school soul vibe i can relate to this song 100% lol i actually felt a bit embarrased listenin to this as its so much like me especially wen she starts talking half way through 10/10

12.Lucky Day - Its all about the beat with this one love the bass who ever's playin it are talented does make u wanna get up and dance 9/10

13.Hope (Featuring Twista) - Its a bit over played now but i did used to really like it much better than the one on Twista's album with Cee-Lo 8/10

Top 5
1.Until You Came
2.Jealous
3.Again
4.Mesmerized
5.Goin' Out/Stop N Go

If your a newcomer to Faith Evans this is a good introduction to her this is one of my favourite albums of the year so far hope she gets the recognition she deserves

5.0 out of 5 stars Beautiful summer album, 10 Jun 2005
By Boris (London UK) - See all my reviews
I heard her do 2 two songs from the album on Jooles Holland and thought I must buy this album tomorrow. I didn't have time to get it the next day but ended up at a party where this album was like the theme song of the evening. Everybody was so grooving and upbeat with Faith E! I've finally got it myself and I'm still excited. If you like R & B with gospel roots, this is a gorgeous album for the summer.

5.0 out of 5 stars SUPERB!!!!!!!!!, 5 April 2005
By A Customer
This review is from: The First Lady (Audio CD)
Every track on here is a winner!!! Faith truly shines and delivers on every level...Now sepereated from the helms of P Diddy, she has made this extradordinary album with numerous guest appearences from Pharrell and Mario Winans. With sweet melodies and powerful vocals, she is rightfully the queen of R&B! Forget your Ciaras and Ashantis...Go buy this now...Undoubetedly one of the best R&B comebacks and one of the best R&B albums this year....

Favourites : Goin Out, Again, I Dont Need It, Mesmerized, Catching Feeligs, Lucky Day, Hope ...

Although every song on here is great!! I really cannot recommend this enough...check it out!
