"Love Like This" is a song by American singer Faith Evans. It was written by Evans, Ron "Amen-Ra" Lawrence, Sean "Puffy" Combs, Clarence Emery, and Schon Crawford for her second studio album Keep the Faith (1998), with production helmed by Lawrence and Combs. The song is built around a looped sample from "Chic Cheer" (1978) by American band Chic. Due to the inclusion of the sample, band members Bernard Edwards and Nile Rodgers are also credited as songwriters. "Love Like This" was released as the album's lead single.
Commercially, "Love Like This" charted within the top 40 in Canada, France, New Zealand, and the United Kingdom and peaked at number seven on the US Billboard Hot 100, marking it Evans' highest-charting solo single in the United States. On the component Hot R&B Singles chart, the song reached number two; it was eventually certified gold by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA). Also a critical success, it was later heavily sampled on American rapper Fatman Scoop's "Be Faithful".
