Biggie had publicly taken up with rapper Lil' Kim and rumors had been spreading about an Evans liaison with Biggie's rival 2Pac (alluded to on 2Pac's venomous 'Hit 'Em Up'). She and Biggie also had a son, Christopher Wallace, Jr., in late 1996 however, by that point, their marriage had already become strained. Over the next couple of years, Evans continued her behind-the-scenes work, performing and writing for records by the likes of Color Me Badd and LSG. Shortly thereafter, she guested on a remix of his smash single 'One More Chance.' (some accounts say at a photo shoot, others a phone conversation) and married him after a courtship of just nine days. In 1995, Evans released her debut album, Faith, which went platinum on the strength of the hit R&B singles 'You Used to Love Me' and 'Soon as I Get Home.' The same year, she met fellow Bad Boy artist the Notorious B.I.G. Thanks to her work on Blige's 1994 sophomore effort, My Life, Evans met producer/impresario Sean 'Puffy' Combs, who signed her to his Bad Boy label. Sure!, Usher, Tony Thompson, and Christopher Williams. It didn't take her long to find work, and over the next few years she sang backup and wrote songs for artists like Hi-Five, Mary J.
After just one year, though, she left college to put her jazz and classical training to use in the field of contemporary R&B.
A high-school honor student, she sang in her school's musical productions before winning a full scholarship to Fordham University. Each one of her first four studio albums reached the Top Five of Billboard's R&B albums chart, and she attained twice as many Top Ten R&B singles.Įvans was born on June 10, 1973, and grew up in Newark, New Jersey, where she began singing in church at the mere age of two. Evans was an active session singer and songwriter before signing her own solo deal and marrying Biggie, and while she never matched the level of his stardom, she continued to come into her own as a vocalist in the years after his untimely death. In spite of the fact that Faith Evans carved out a lengthy recording career in her own right, her name will forever remain linked in the minds of many to her late husband, the Notorious B.I.G.
