This single has good songs, and one of my favorite songs ever is "You're all I need. " Method Man and Mary J. Blige collaberate well together. Excellent work!

When this CDS came out, the Puff Daddy Mix was all over the airwaves. The album version is very true to the Marvin Gaye track, in terms of the accompanying music.

RZA, the man who sculpted many of the early Wu-Tang sounds/solo albums/group albums/etc, came in and remixed his original. It was kind of updated, more futuristic sounding. It's got tight, crisp drums, which was kind of outside of the realm of his normal, "dirty" sound. The melody and bassline might sound repetitive, but its that motion that helps catapult Meth's grimey vocal. The fact that Mary J. still sounds flawless over this very underground Hip-Hop track shows all of their genius. This version rips any of the others in my humble opinion. One of my favorite Meth tracks, ever.

"I gotta love jones..."

I'm a 38 woman and rarely rarely rarely listen to hip hop/rap. I heard this single on an MTV Party to Go compilation album and was blown away. The lyrics are outstanding: deceptively simple, creative, and poetic. The delivery is brilliant! Reminded me of Digable Planets but better. This song communicated to me some of the best of what rap or hip hop has to offer.
