"Do for Love" (originally titled 'Sucka 4 Luv' in its unreleased form) was the second posthumously released single by Tupac Shakur from his second posthumous album R U Still Down? (Remember Me). The vocal sample is from "What You Won't Do for Love" by Bobby Caldwell. It charted at #21 on the Billboard Hot 100, and #12 in the UK. The music video contained Tupac as a clay and animated figure. Altho Soulshock & Karlin, it was actually produced by J Dilla and was a rechopped sample from Dilla's remix of Pharcyde's "Y? (Be Like That)".
