Data Insight

Love? was framed as Jennifer Lopez's dance-pop comeback, assembled from a deep bench of hitmakers including RedOne, Stargate, The-Dream, Tricky Stewart, and Lady Gaga, who holds writing credits on "Invading My Mind" and "Hypnotico." RedOne produced and co-wrote the lead single "On the Floor" featuring Pitbull, a global smash that interpolates the Bolivian group Los Kjarkas via the melody of "Lambada." Stargate produced "I'm Into You" featuring Lil Wayne, written with Taio Cruz. Lopez took an executive role on the project, which leaned heavily on club-ready production after her move to Island Records.

Love? is Jennifer Lopez's seventh studio album, released April 19, 2011 on Island Records. It marked a label change from Epic and a wholesale shift to dance-pop and EDM-influenced production driven by RedOne, who was simultaneously producing Lady Gaga's early work. The lead single 'On the Floor' featuring Pitbull became one of her biggest global hits. Lopez holds only one writing credit across the twelve standard tracks, making it the lowest-authorship album in her catalog alongside Como Ama una Mujer.
