Originally written for Jennifer Lopez, “I Love You” was instead given to Evans to perform. The track would eventually peak at #28 on the US Billboard Hot 100 charts, while also reaching #8 on the Billboard Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs charts. In hindsight, this was definitely one of the most exhilarating moments on the album. In her modified rendition, Evans spouts, “I'm the diva with clout everybody raps about / Check it out / Rhymes I bust 'em / Problems with my life, don't discuss 'em.” by busting a rhyme of her own, flipping the lyrics from the "Get Money" remix: “I'm the rapper with clout everybody rap about/ Check it out/ Guns I bust 'em / Problems with my wife, don't discuss 'em,” Biggie rhymed. “But I'm human, I go through drama, I break.” On this track, she also decides to pay homage to her late husband The Notorious B.I.G. “The first single is unexpected, because I think I've been portrayed as a soft-spoken, turn-the-other-cheek ,” Evans confi ded to MTV just prior to the album’s release. In reality, Evans thought “You Gets No Love” was an unusual choice as a leading single for the release of Faithfully.
