Today, Faith Evans premiered the new video for her duet with The Notorious B.I.G. “Legacy” with Billboard.com. “Legacy” appears on the highly anticipated duets album THE KING & I, available on May 19. The video was directed by Rock Davis and Jay Rodriguez, produced by Jyothi Raju and Nigel Talley (Itchy House Productions)
THE KING & I features 25 tracks with newly recorded vocals by Evans melded with vocals by Biggie Smalls, some well-known but also a selection of rare and unheard rhymes from the B.I.G. vault. THE KING & I also includes an impressive list of guest appearances by rap royalty including Busta Rhymes, Jadakiss, Lil’ Cease, Lil’ Kim, Sheek Louch, Styles P, and Snoop Dogg. Evans has also brought on some of the most acclaimed producers in hip-hop, many of which produced some of B.I.G.’s most famous tracks, including Sean “Puff Daddy” Combs, DJ Premier, Just Blaze, Salaam Remi, Stevie J, and Chucky Thompson.
“If there were a title track for The King & I, it would be ‘Legacy,”’ says Evans. “This song absolutely sums up the theme of the album.”
