"I Love You"
Song

"I Love You" is a 1995 single by American singer-songwriter Mary J. Blige, taken from her second album My Life. Released only as a radio single, I Love You made an amazing impact for radio only singles, implying major airplay as it rose to the peak of #60. It was occasionally the B-side for the previous dance hit, "You Bring Me Joy". There were plans and negotiations of a possible music video for this single to be shot back-to-back with "You Bring Me Joy", but plans were scrapped as it performed well on its own. Part 2 was recorded with rapper duo Smif-n-Wessun.

The song samples the piano loop of Isaac Hayes's "Ike's Mood" from 1970's album "...To Be Continued".

"I Love You (Part 3)" was later recorded by Keyshia Cole. On Cole's version, rapper Lil' Wayne is featured.
