Posted by Bossip Staff

FaithNewSingle

Here is the new single from Faith called “Maybe”. We haven’t heard from her in a minute. With the Neptunes on board, does she have a hit on her hands?

Comments(121) on “Faith Evans: “Maybe””

  1. athena

    Don’t care

  2. Deeboi

    2nd!


  3. The song is aight! I actually like Faith I think she is very underrated. She has such a smooth great voice. But sometimes I just want her to sing sing like she’s in church cause I know she can.

  4. Moi

    I love how Bossip has Faith and Mary on the same page, one right after the other.

  5. Hope (FREE MARY)

    Sorry but this song totally sucks and makes me feel like I have a hang over. Come one Faith, The Frist Lady was great

  6. Marsha

    Its okay….It might grow on me, but she sounds good as uaual


  7. WOOOOOOOOOOOOOW!..we found Beyonce oldest sister…..

    She is mad Thin now….


  8. i think it’s great to see Faith back at it, with the shortage –or virtual non-existance of REAL female vocalists in the industry these days (aside from Chrisette Michele and Beyonce), her reappearance is refreshing.

    it sounds like this song was created specifically with her in mind. sounds good to me.

    peace & love.

  9. Deeboi

    Now time for my comment…the song is very Mary J-esque. Not really feeling it. The saxophone part is corny…BOO to the Neptunes. And at 2:18 it just sounds like cats caught in the middle of a tribal rain dance……………

  10. M.dot

    Track is ok…I guess…I heard it on http://www.FRESHOPOLY.com

  11. dayg715

    finally! my girl is back!! love the song!

  12. The One

    Not a hit at all. Better luck next time.

  13. Nyeve

    Its okay but Faith needs to do way more to stay relevant.

    @Hope

    did they really ban MJB? I looked forward to her comments.

  14. tintin

    its okay but the lyrics are real bland plus this sounds like the 702 song pharrell produced years ago with the bells. I don’t know sounds a little too young.

  15. Carolyn

    this song sucks *****!!! FAITH TRY HARDER NEXT TIME

  16. Rebel78

    she looks like the PR girl for Derwin on The Game

  17. PrettyMissSunshine

    I like it. I don’t love it but I do like it. I can hear the similarity to 702’s song “I still love you” But this song is very melodic and catchy. I am not a faith fan AT ALL, but I think she might have a winner with this one.

  18. ifokust

    TRASH!

    C’mon Faith….you was my favourite!!!!

    Keyshia Cole has this r&b thang on luck for 2008 I guess.

  19. MURDA

    i like it. sounds like 702s ‘i still love you’.

  20. Oh F@ck That!!!

    - 12:30 pm MURDA

    i like it. sounds like 702s ‘i still love you’.

    ^^^^^^^

    EXACTAMUNDO!!! This sound went out with the 90’s and she MUST step her game up. But I did enjoy her last album so maybe she will take in the negative feed back, push her album back and re-record some track.

  21. iluvprada

    Yeah…I would have 2 agree wit ya’ll, on this track sounding 2 much like 702’s…Love You. Better luck next time.

  22. PrettyMissSunshine

    @ oh f@ck that

    Damn, I aint never seen anyone put the actual time the comment was made. You wanted murda to know it was him/her that made that comment at 12:30 exactly!!! lol

  23. iluvprada

    I STILL LOVE YOU…MY BAD, LOL

  24. Free MJB

    This is wack. she got to do better!!

  25. Vito

    I love Faith, but this song is not moving. “Maybe” it will grow on me.

  26. Danielle

    ***** yall young ***** dummies!

    Bring Faith back, we need the real singers in the industry! I like the song and I will always support Faith…me and her true fans! So it don’t even matter. Homegirl writes her own ***** and wrote half of Mary J Bliges My Life CD so the checks will never stop coming in as long as she is smart with her money!

    So ***** yall AGAIN!

  27. Free MJB

    Looks like Danielle is a stan

  28. Bonifant

    although it sounds like it was recorded in the 90s hey thats the Faith music we love and fiend for.

    This is gonna be a hit and played a lot during those quiet storm radio shows


  29. I’m sorry but Faith is a TRUE vocalist. Anyone saying Keyshia Cole can really sing and is taking r&b over in ‘08 clearly has ear plugs on when they listen to her cause that ***** sounds like a cat thrown in cold water. Only thing saving that hoe is her reality tv show with her spicy ghetto ***** sisters and amess of a crack recovering mom.

  30. my gurl!!!

    I SWEAR I WAS JUST ABOUT TO POST AND ASK WHERE WAS MU GURL FAYE AT. THE FIRST LADY IS BACK!!!

  31. Stpdny

    I really like the song… It’s very grown and sexy. It showcases Faiths melodious voice and her vocal control. Makes me wanna be boo’d up somewhere…

  32. Keisha

    Didn’t listen to the song but she looks GOOD!!! Don’t dig the tattoos though. I remember when she first came out I didn’t like her because of the whole Biggie/2Pace thing(I was a notorious fan) and I use to call her Fat-***** Faith but the last couple of years I had to give it to her!!!

  33. Mocha

    The track is cool


  34. I like it

  35. PrettyMissSunshine

    Anyone saying Keyshia Cole can really sing and is taking r&b over in ‘08 clearly has ear plugs on when they listen to her cause that ***** sounds like a cat thrown in cold water.

    _____________________________________________________@ fresh from the streets

    yo, you on fire today!!! Im cracking the hell up over here!!! shut up!!!! lmao!!

  36. NuAgenda

    The song is nice but I’m sure it won’t released as a single. It sounds like an “album song.” Not to be released.


  37. track is cool but i’m not feelin the thin faith liked her when she was thick w/blond hair


  38. this just in all pharell beats sound a like

  39. vachick

    that sound like they stole a portion of the beat from “I still love you” from 702

  40. vachick

    oh ha ha that point has already been made..well then yeah im cosignin wit yal on that one!!!

  41. kiki

    next!

  42. 504okaay

    SORRY, BUT I’LL HAVE TO P***** ON THIS ONE. BORING IN MY OPINION. FAITH IS MY GIRL BUT I’M JUST NOT FEELING IT….MEDIOCRE AT BEST.

  43. Yanaja

    I love Faith, but I have never liked her on these type of tracks. Bring back “Soon As I Get Home” Faith…

  44. Mz_Magnificent1

    I love me some Faith…I have been playing all her albums for the past week!!! However, I’m not feeling this song…

  45. tintin

    @ ifokust

    no no no, Keyshia and her depressing ***** don’t have 2008 on lock. I actually have to give the crown to Mary as usual cause she keeps it different and provides variety. I like Keyshia but she need to find a man so she can stop singing the depressing crap

  46. missj

    Damn, if this is what cocaine can do for you someone p***** me the rocks!! She dropped an entire person from her frame.

  47. Tamika

    I love the song. It’s slow; but, Faith’s voice blends right with it. I can’t see anyone singing this song. I’m glad that she’s back. I heard she had another baby. What did she have? A girl or boy?

  48. Heavenly

    THANKYOU!!!I love Faith and God knows I’m tired of Ciara and Rhianna with their “no sanging *****es!!”

  49. YUP I SAID IT

    PLEASE FAITH….STOP!!!! STOP WORKING WITH THE NEPTUNES! YOU GUYS HAVE NO CHEMISRTY. AND THE COLLABOS HAVE YET TO PRODUCE A HIT. I HOPE THIS IS A THROW AWAY TRACK AND NOT THE SINGLE. ITS SOUND OLD LIKE SHE WAS DEMOING IT FOR 702′S 2002 ALBUM “STAR”

    IF YOU WANNA COMPETE WITH THE R&B CHICKS OUT NOW YOU GOTA STAR WORKING WITH THE PRODUCERS OF THE MOMENT. I LOVE YOU GIRL BUT GET IT TOGETHER. NEPTUNES? PLEASE WHEN WAS THE LAST TIME ….YOU HEARD A HIT FROM THEM. AND THEY SOUND SO PLAYED OUT NOW.

    WORK WITH STARGATE AND B.*****, POLOW DA DON, OR IF ALL ELSE FAILS GET BACK WITH DIDDY

  50. dani

    I like the song but it is not “first single worthy”

  51. YUP I SAID IT

    oh and by the way people that is an old promo picture from the First lady released back in 2005. she has had another child since.

  52. YUP I SAID IT

    i am not a big fan of KEIsha Cole she iight, but voice gets alittle annoying she remind me of a ghettomix between debrorah ***** and mary J (or tryin to be) her beats are alright but lyrics are straight trash, i mean “shoulda let you go” ??? sound like she wrote that back in Junior High for a talent show or something!!!

  53. Momo

    I like Faith…but the song…nah.


  54. It’s not produced by the Neptunes.


  55. cosign wit keisha coles voice being annoying at times

  56. YUP I SAID IT

    thats a neptunes beat if i ever heard one.

  57. YUP I SAID IT

    i know its too much whining in her tone.


  58. It’s pretty good. I think this is one that you have to listen to a few times before you really like it.

  59. Lisa

    Faith is all of that, she can actually sang, sang. She just needs the right material and marketing team.

  60. Soul Cry

    I really like Faith, and she can sing her ***** off…just needs the right team, as Lisa said.

  61. YUP I SAID IT

    and she left the right team and marketing to go to Capitol

  62. Breakfast @ Tiffany's

    Nope, aint gon happen! I love Faith but this song sucks.

  63. circa-81

    It took some time for this song to grow on me but half way through I could envision what they were going for. It is something that screams early 1980’s in this song to me. Like Minnie Ripperton should be singing this or something. And it has some serious influences from a Michael Jackson song from the Thriller album…I just can’t think of what song. If I was the record company I would not use this song as a single though, but I can give it a thumbs up.

  64. dani

    This song would be dope for an intro of her upcoming album or an interlude..but don’t sleep on Faith she usually has good albums and good writing


  65. I’m sorry but I LOVE this son, I have been playing it over & over since I first clicked on it. I am a HUGE Faith fan anyway, you know her being a REAL singer & all, & this song is just beautiful. And YES it does remind me of I still Love You from 702 but I LISTEN to that song quite frequently as well lol. LOVE IT, nice to hear Faith singing such a pretty song.

  66. sasha

    keyshia is like ary same depressing crap no more drama same stupid dance.

    Faith her ***** sounds like its from the late eighties nmineties. The entire song souns like it should be laced under a more haeavy sounding and vocal record.

  67. NubianGoddez

    I like it, sounds like a good love making song. think I will play this and give that big rusty, ashy *****, green mile looking negroe of mine some punany.

  68. Stringer Bell ~ Fool at laying pipe!

    Id let her sit on my face!

  69. ..JONES!

    I like the song. Besides, Faith is an icon.

    ’nuff said

  70. darling nikki

    this song is okay…will have to grow on me but i love faith always supported her always will. reminds me of michael jacksons can’t help it.

  71. Mona

    i love faith..if she drops an album i’m gonna buy it.. and i like the song.

  72. JillyBean819

    She looks fantastic but I personally feel that the Neptunes’ sound is getting a little old.

  73. virgo911

    I am a Faith Evans fan and I LOVE her first three albums. Her last one was mediocre overall but had a few nice songs…

  74. universalbliss

    when did she get skinny…?

  75. tatiana

    BACK TO THE LAB PHARELL AND CHAD….. IT SUCKS. U NEED A TIME MACHINE TO MOVE INTO THE MILINUM. FAITH TOO. PUT IT ALL IN A 90S STORAGE COMPARTMENT.

  76. BossipKeep*****Going

    this ***** is WACK AS HELL. faith havent released a excellent cd since her 1st one. none of her cd’s have come close to her debut. she need to regroup and branch out, her writing her songs arent working ne more.

  77. Sammy J. Parker

    Granted, I was listening with the speakers wayyy low but it sounded as if she was doing nothing but whispering…???

  78. MRSWATSON

    why did the Neptunes recycle the bells from the I Still Love U by 702 joint? that was my JAM and i am kinda feeling this one.

  79. Get Real

    I’m *****ed that everybody is trashing this song, but won’t keep it real that Mary J. Blige’s new shyt sucks! Just Fine is HORRIBLE and that other new song ain’t much better. Mary ain’t lockin shytfor the ‘08, everybody will be off her CD by February!

  80. B. Planner

    Y’all are some whack *****f*ckas. You wouldn’t know good (not great) but good R&B if it kicked you in the *****. If music isn’t pre-packedged in some BS 50 Cent, TPain, Crank dat Jiggaboo bullsh*it it doesn’t get your attention. What y’all really know about production value, arrangements and harmonies? Y’all probably the same kats who gave Ashanti a thumbs up years ago. Lame *****es. The song is a banger and I’ll ***** up the Faith cd when it drops. Shout out to the Neptunes for being some of the few producers in the game with a real SOUND. Funny that y’all dogged the Neps but actually remembered the track this song is reminiscent of. Guess they are better producers than you thought. *****as.

  81. PRTTYBRWNGIRL

    well … at least she preserving her sexy. she look cute

  82. PRTTYBRWNGIRL

    @ GET REAL

    i agree. Mary J’s new joints are not hot. and just fine gets on my nerves almost as much as something being sang by Rihanna. her trying to dance, and all of this stuf.. NO. not that all mary has to offer is sad, he dont love me no more songs, but i just personally feel after the success of the break through she really failed with this one. i also think alicia keys new cd isnt much better. i was disappointed when i listened to all the tracks. with the except of “like you never see me again”, i cant tolerate alot of those songs. and like you’ll never see me again i have to flip the station when she starts trying to do that ole school prince noise.. uh uh

  83. Wait a minute

    It’s okay. Was expecting a little bit more, but it’s not bad. It might grow on me. Wait…no it won’t.

  84. brwnbarbie24

    I like the song, love Faith. The song doesn’t sound like it should be a single though.

    @MrsWatson I noticed the “I still love you” bells too lol

  85. NubianGoddez

    Cosign @ B. Planner

    *looks around nervously, I gave Ashanti thumbs up, I thought her Ashanti CD was hot*

  86. NubianGoddez

    Cosign @ B. Planner

    *looks around nervously, I gave Ashanti thumbs up, I thought her Ashanti CD had some good songs*

  87. Dalia

    For heaven’s sake! How much weight has this girl lost?


  88. Wow, all I know is she looks good. and Danielle, I had no idea Faith wrote a lot of the tracks on My Life, the greatest Mary J CD of all time!! Now what I want to know is, is this the real up to date Faith or an old pic like someone claims? I also like the blonde hair better. And we do need a true R&B vocalist, Keyshia is my homegirl and I love seeing her succeed, but she ain’t it.


  89. Oh yeah, and word to JHud:

    THESE are the lips the white girls be paying for -


  90. FYI this is a recent photo of faith. She has lost ALOT of weight & I think she is trying to get away from her Bad Boy & Biggie Days especially since she got in trouble in Atlanta a few years ago.

  91. M-DADDY OAKLANDS FINEST

    I’ve always liked Faith. She is a pretty lady and I know her body is still bangin

  92. ATX QUEEN

    Man, Faith can sing “mary had a little lamb” and I’d run and go by that ***** as soon as it dropped….

    I’m a big fan of hers, her voice is incredible!!!!!

  93. Tiffany

    Sounds like an old 702 joint…come again Faith…”Maybe” try again lol

  94. shamika

    I promise man 2day i was just thinkin abt Faith and that video that her Kelly Price and Ehitney did man that was where the music where did it go booti shakin and hair swayin’

  95. Fabulous B$%#h

    Loving it!!! Faith is my girl. Glad 2 c her back.

  96. playlist

    Is she part Spanish Mami?

  97. DM

    Faith’s dad is white. She never knew him.

    To the point–I hope fat boy left you some insurance money, because your time is up in the music industry.


  98. That’s some old smooth R & Bright thuuurrr lol!!! I’m feelin’ that one. I can ride on a warm summer night and bang that one 4 real.

  99. and another one

    Neptunes and Faith fell off – Love Faith but im not feeling this at all – boring. Step ya game up Chad n Pharrell

  100. Qi-Qi

    I like the song, but it’s not going to appeal to those who aren’t die hard Faith fans. I don’t know what it is about Faith that has held her back while Mary had progressed so much. I luv Mary too but if I had to put my money on the best vocal singer, it’s Faith Evans hands down.

  101. Morgan

    It’s alright. Kind of reminds me of “Catching Feelings” from her last studio album. I love Faith’s singing voice so I always expect a lot from her. I really don’t care for the Neptunes on R&B songs though. Look what they did to Robin Thicke. Simplistic beats like that work better for rap.

  102. Ron Mexico's Pharmacist

    Faith had a another son- i’ve read that his name is ryder. Co-sign with danielle and freshfromthestreetz.

  103. yes

    last!!!! yes! i like the song

  104. Tank

    She had anutha son? Shiiid my ***** Bozack is stayin in that *****.

  105. BossipKeep*****Going

    to the posters who are angry because some of us dnt like the wack ***** song, umm ppl do have opinions and we can express them. if u like the song oh well go and support her when faith comes back out.

    and fyi, i never purchased ashanti *****, because shes always been wack to me, i dnt jump on ppl bandwagon because they are so called hot for the moment or a couple of years. never purchased tpain, umm cnt believe he have a deal. put it like this the last cd’s i purchased were mary and jaheim and b4 that mario and keyshia cole.

  106. iBOSSIP@HOME[4]NOW

    whoa…shes mad thin…too bad i cant listen to the song

    anywho

    ashanti’s first cd was good, but the others….not so good

  107. MURDA

    the song is good. like i said before i like it, i dont think it’s first single worthy but yeah its good.

    i agree with GET REAL and PRTTYBRWNGIRL about mary j.

    i am not feelin mary with this latest album. its trash to me. i wish they’d kick out the rest of her singles and move on. ‘the breakthrough’ was a cl*****ic album, along with her first 3. 411, my life, and share my world.

  108. Don't mind me

    Missed ya gurl. Looks lovely in pic

  109. pimp daddy

    NICE LIPS.

  110. Earica

    I love Faith, however, I’m not feeling this song. Her first still needs to be better than this.


  111. It’s sounds good but not a first single good!!

  112. samira

    I love me some Faith, but I am not impressed by this single.

    It’s kinda boring

  113. whodat

    for those that say the neptunes and faith together can’t produce a hit need to go back to 02 with “burnin up” ft. missy….that was a hit record

  114. FayeDunawaybiotch

    If you ever wanted to hear a grown azz woman schreech, you shoulda heard me when I found out Faye was back. Let the sangin begin. Loves it!

  115. Zzzz

    co-sign @ B.Planner

    You said it all!

    Faith is well respected in the music industry and will probably always have a record deal on the strength of her indisputable talent.

  116. Keify

    All the negative comments come from LOSERS and HATERS! I’m LOVING this song and I’m already settin’ aside some money to be the first to ***** the new CD off of someone’s shelf!

  117. Sa

    I’m liking it. I loved First Lady.

  118. Keisha

    @Deeboi & PRTTYBRWNGIRL

    That comment about the cat’s mad me listen to that part of the song(very funny)

    I don’t listen to secular music(if I don’t have to) so I’m glad that I’ve never heard Anything new of Alicia’s besides “No-One” and that’s because @ my old job the girls in the office would play the radio. In my car I listen to my mp3 player loaded with over 800 christian joints so that I don’t have to let that spirit get in my system. The closest I get to secular music is when I’m on this site because on MY*****E I’ll just turn your player off if it’s secular music U’re playing, but that just helps me to live more peacefully.

  119. dismymoney

    I like this song. Reminds me of early Khan/Rufus *****. This song may get some play on Quiet Storm programs but don’t expect it to be mainstream radio.

  120. yostartrakyo

    this is NOT THE NEPTUNES

  121. J

    Loved her last album but this song needs some work.
