abstract
  • %22Why I Love You%22 is a song by American hip hop artists Kanye West and Jay-Z, from their first collaborative album Watch the Throne (2011). The song features pop musician Mr Hudson who is signed to West's GOOD Music label. %22Why I Love You%22 heavily samples French house duo Cassius' 2010 single %22I <3 U So%22, which itself is based upon a sample from the original 1971 version of %22I Feel a Song (In My Heart)%22 by Sandra Richardson. The song almost entirely features Jay-Z rapping and only contains a few lines provided by West. Lyrically, the song is about the people who have stood in the way of Jay-Z throughout the year and expresses themes of victory and anger. The song received positive reviews from critics who generally praised the production.The song was released as the fifth single from Watch the Throne on September 13, 2011. However the song was only released outside of the US. The song became a top 40 single in the UK, in Iceland and in Belgium. The song has since been certified Gold for sales exceeding 500,000. Jay and West performed the song at all the stops on their 2011 Watch the Throne Tour.
