R&B Diva

R&B Divas is a compilation album led by American singer Faith Evans. The album was released Prolific Music and E1 Music on October 2, 2012 and features previously unreleased content from Evans and fellow female R&B singers Nicci Gilbert, Monifah, Syleena Johnson, and KeKe Wyatt, the first season stars of the same-titled TV One reality series, as well as contribution from Kelly Price and Fantasia. While the compilation is credited as an Evans album, she is performing only on seven of the twelve tracks on R&B Divas, though she compiled and executive produced the album. Upon release, R&B Divas earned generally mixed reviews from critics who found it well-sung and well-produced but scattered. It however, earned a Grammy nomination for Best R&B Album at the 55th Grammy Awards ceremony. It debuted at number 46 on the US Billboard 200 with first week sales of 10,817 units, also reaching the top ten on both the US R&B/Hip-Hop Albums and the Independent Albums. R&B Divas was preceded by two singles, "Tears of Joy" and "Dumb," both led by Evans, the former of which reached the top five of the US Adult R&B Songs.
