創作背景
最開始,伴唱該首歌曲的說唱歌手並不是史努比狗狗,而是說唱歌手
Plies。2006年7月,Plies和他同伴在佛羅里達洲蓋恩斯維爾的夜店表演時,在得知需要把原定的表演時間減少15分鐘來給另一位受邀說唱歌手
Lil Boosie演出後,Plies向現場觀眾開槍,導致5人受傷,之後他和朋友被逮捕。之後,阿肯與史努比狗狗的工作團隊達成協定,兩人互相在對方的專輯裡伴唱一首歌,於是這首歌開始由史努比狗狗伴唱。
歌曲的原本名字叫《I Wanna Fuck You》,但由於為了迎合大眾,於是電台發出的歌名就變成了《I Wanna Love You》。

歌曲鑑賞
《I Wanna Love You》是一首混有說唱、當代節奏布魯士和都市樂風格的歌曲。歌曲的音調以A小調為主,擁有每分鐘120次的中度嘻哈節拍。作為聲樂歌手,阿肯的音域必須控制在A4到E5之間。歌曲的鋼琴和吉他很出色。
這首“單生情歌”展示了阿肯在與他人合作時的能做到完美的優點,最精彩的是阿肯備份的高亢嗓音,它表現了無助的需要。史努比狗狗的加入是歌曲更加嬉皮,但使歌詞脫離了體面地一面,這粗魯的歌詞似乎就是在說“我愛脫衣舞娘”。
歌曲MV
歌曲的音樂錄影帶由本尼·伯姆執導,於2006年11月17日釋出。
音樂錄影帶開頭,阿肯與史努比狗狗在白色背景中唱歌,而一群美女則在性感地跳
板凳舞,畫面中的線條給人一種監獄的感覺。還有美女拿著照相機史努比狗狗調情。音樂錄影帶中,歌中情景的變化都離不開美女。最後,音樂錄影帶中還出現幾個黑男人。
