"Baby I Love U!" is a song by American recording artist Jennifer Lopez from third studio album This Is Me... Then (2002). Released in 2004, it was one of Lopez's lowest-charting singles in the United States, peaking at number seventy-two on the Billboard Hot 100. However, it debuted and peaked at number three in the United Kingdom (behind DJ Casper's "Cha Cha Slide" and Britney Spears' "Toxic"), where the single was originally released. It eventually became the UK's sixty-fifth best-selling single of 2004, with sales of 80,000 copies.[2] The song contains an interpolation of John Barry's 1969 song "Midnight Cowboy", the theme song of the film of the same name.
A remix of the song featuring R. Kelly was also released, which made little impact on U.S. urban radio stations, although it was never officially released. It appears on the bonus CD of Lopez's 2003 DVD The Reel Me.

The song made its debut on the R&B charts at number 75.[3]
The music video, directed by Meiert Avis, featured scenes from Lopez's 2003 film Gigli as a form of cross-promotion. It aired briefly on both MTV and VH1 before being pulled after the film was a massive bomb at the box office. It was replaced with a more generic video that removed all mention of the film.
It shows Lopez in a bright scenery, flirting with the camera and singing on a bed in the end. According to Lopez on The Reel Me, the video was planned to give the element of light and sunshine.

Singles
I Love You (A Dedication to My Fans) is the fourth mixtape by American rapper Jadakiss. It was released on May 23, 2011. The mixtape features guest appearances from Emanny, Teyana Taylor, Styles P, Chynk Show, Fred The Godson Trae Tha Truth and Rick Ross.
I Love You (A Dedication to My Fans) was met with generally favorable reviews from music critics. Alex Thornton at HipHopDX gave the mixtape three and a half stars, saying "No one is likely to confuse I Love You with a real album given its reused tracks and limited scope, but it’s still actually better than The Last Kiss in many respects. It’s certainly worth listening to and does manage to earn the “official mixtape” status it’s been granted by Def Jam. As usual, the date for Jada’s next actual album seems to be up in the air, but I Love You makes the wait a little easier." Adam Fleischer of XXL gave the mixtape an XL, saying "On I Love You (A Dedication to My Fans), the Yonkers emcee’s potent delivery is generally at home over a variety of sonic backdrops. The feel good “Lil Bruh” featuring Pharrell is an upbeat and refreshing take on giving advice to young’ns. Later, the street savvy “Lay Em Down,” features yet another outstanding Jada-Styles P back and forth—a treat for rap fans every time it goes down. On the flip side, there are some misses. The somber “In The Streets” is a bit cliché in its content and structure and epitomizes the drawback of Kiss’s decision to use R&B hooks on nearly every track on the project. In the end, though, I Love You (A Dedication to My Fans) reminds why Kiss has been able to enjoy such longevity in the game."
In and Out of Love is the debut album of American R&B singer Cheri Dennis, issued by Bad Boy/Atlantic Records.

If you want my love, baby
If you really do.
Don't be afraid, baby
Just ask and ooh, I'm gonna give it to you.
Though I do declare, I want to see you with it.
Stretch out your arms little boy,
You're gonna get it.
'Cause I love you.
Baby, baby, baby I love you.
Ain't no doubt about , I love you.
Baby, baby, baby I love you
I love you, I love you, Baby I love you.
Some day, you might wanna run away
Leave me sitting here, crying.
But if it's all the same to you baby,
I'm gonna stop you from saying goodbye.
Because I love you, baby I love you, I love you.
I love you baby.
Some day you might wanna run away
Leave me here, sitting and crying.
But if it's all the same to you baby,
I'm gonna stop you from saying goodbye.
Baby I love you, baby I need you, gotta have you baby, tell you darling.
Don't let your neighbors tell you that I don't want you.
Don't let your low down friends tell you I don't need you.
Ooh, baby I love you. I got to have you.
