Love No Limit


"Love No Limit" is a song by American recording artist Mary J. Blige. It was co-written by Kenny Greene and Dave Hall for her debut album, What's the 411?, with the latter serving as the song's producer. Released as the album's fourth and final single, the song became a top five hit, reaching number-five on the R&B singles chart, and peaked at number forty-four on the US Billboard Hot 100 chart.
R&B singer Monica sang the song as a tribute at the Essence Awards 2003. Blige later performed the song at the 3rd BET Honors in 2010, as part of a medley of her hits, when she paid tribute to honoree Diddy. The song was also briefly played in the movie CB4 starring Chris Rock.

Recording and production

Dave Hall, the song's co-writer, explained how "Love No Limit" was created, wanting to give an urban, hip-hop feel to a much more jazzy sound.

Music video

The song's accompanying music video was directed by Millicent Shelton. It marked the acting debut of British actor Adewale Akinnuoye-Agbaje, who later starred on the television series Lost. In the black-and-white video Blige is singing in a club.

Remix version

In the official remix version, which is found on her What's the 411? Remix album, the song opens with a snippet of the original version, then the remix begins with Blige singing it in alternative way: the main beat takes a sample of Keni Burke's "Risin' to the Top" and the 1982 The Gap Band hit "Outstanding" while refraining Anita Baker's 1988 song "Good Love".
