R+B star Faith Evans has given her late husband Notorious BIG's ashes back to his mother, so his spirit can rest.

Notorious BIG - real name Christopher Wallace - was gunned down in a drive-by shooting eight years ago after getting caught in a violent feud between members of P. Diddy's Bad Boy record label and music rivals Death Row Records.

Until recently, the singer - often regarded as the most famous widow in R+B - kept his ashes with her in an urn, but she's finally handed them back to his mother, Voletta Wallace. Evans explains, "After a while, something didn't feel right about having a part of him with us. "I didn't feel his spirit would be want to be moving around with us to all those places."
