Reception

Allmusic's Steve Birchmeier considers "I Just Wanna Love U" to be "a fun, playful song miles away from the rugged Ruff Ryder beats Swizz Beatz had been offering Jay-Z a year earlier."cite web | last = Birchmeier | first = Steve | url = http://allmusic.com/cg/amg.dll?p=amg&sql=10:0ifuxqr0ldde | title = The Dynasty: Roc La Familia Review at Allmusic | format = | work = | publisher = | accessdate = July 18 | accessyear = 2007] In addition, Rob Marriot of "Rolling Stone" and Steve Juon of RapReviews.com describe it as a club-readycite web | last = Marriot | first = Rob | url = http://www.rollingstone.com/artists/jayz/albums/album/218406/review/6211167/the_dynasty_roc_la_familia_2000__ | title = The Dynasty: Roc La Familia Review at Rolling Stone | format = | work = | publisher = | accessdate = July 18 | accessyear = 2007] track that will get "whips hopping from coast to coast."cite web | last = Juon | first = Steve | url = http://www.rapreviews.com/archive/2000_11F_dynasty.html | title = The Dynasty: Roc La Familia Review at RapReviews.com | format = | work = | publisher = | accessdate = July 18 | accessyear = 2007] : these remarks explain why it reached #11 on The Billboard Hot 100 making it the 2nd most successful Jay-Z single at the time.

Biting

Jay-Z's opponents often cite Jay-Z's common "biting" or reusing lyrics from other artists' songs. On "I Just Wanna Love U (Give It 2 Me)," Jay-Z "bites" from "The World Is Filled..." by The Notorious B.I.G.. The writers of "The World Is Filled..." all received writing credits for "I Just Wanna Love U."

Jay-Z's lyrics:cquote
When the Rémy's in the system, ain't no tellin
Will I fuck 'em will I diss 'em, that's what they be yellin
I'm a pimp by blood, not relation
Y'all be chasin, I replace them
Drunk off Crist...

The Notorious B.I.G.'s lyrics:cquote
When the Rémy's in the system, ain't no tellin
Will I fuck 'em will I diss 'em, that's what these hoes yellin
I'm a pimp by blood, not relation
Y'all still chase on, I'll replace on, punks
Drunk off Dom...

Jay-Z himself has defended the practice as a tribute rather than plagarism. On the song "What More Can I Say" he says:

cquote
I'm not a biter, I'm a writer for myself and others
I say a B.I.G. verse, I'm only bigging up my brother...
