"Again" is a song by American singer Faith Evans. It was written by Ivan Barias, Carvin Haggins, and Evans for her fourth studio album The First Lady (2005), while production was helmed by Barias and Haggins under their production moniker Carvin & Ivan. It contains a sample from "Genuine" by American 1970s soul group the Whatnauts. Due to the inclusion of the sample, Jerry Harris and Venus Dodson are also credited as songwriters. "Again" addresses Evans's 2004 arrest for drug possession.
Released as the lead single from The First Lady on February 7, 2005, the song marked a top-10 return for Evans on the US Billboard Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs chart, peaking at number seven. "Again" also peaked at number 47 on the US Billboard Hot 100. Worldwide, the song charted within the top 50 in Australia and peaked at number 12 on the UK Singles Chart. The accompanying music video for "Again" was directed by longtime collaborator Chris Robinson and filmed in Los Angeles, California in late January 2005.
