"None of Your Love" is a song by American rapper Lil Tjay. It was first released on July 29, 2018[1] before being released to streaming services on December 4, 2020 as the third single and a bonus track from his second studio album Destined 2 Win (2021). Produced by CashMoneyAP, the song samples and interpolates "Baby" by Justin Bieber featuring Ludacris.

Background

Lil Tjay originally uploaded the song on YouTube in July 2018, but it was removed due to sample clearance issues. He later teased the song in 2019.[2] In 2020, he announced the sample was cleared and officially released the song on streaming services.[3]

Composition

A pop-leaning song,[3] "None of Your Love" finds Lil Tjay reflecting on a girl who initially refused him and only wanted his love after he became famous,[4][5] as well as his related heartbreak, moving on, his time spent in jail and newfound fame.[6] He performs through a layer of Auto-Tune and interpolates the second verse of "Baby" in the pre-chorus,[5]

Critical reception

Pitchfork wrote of the song, "The A Boogie influence is strong, but there's an energy about him, and a youthful pettiness that already makes Tjay feel more of a complete artist with a three-dimensional personality."[7] Farah Idrees of Earmilk remarked, "Tjay's melodic genius bodies the track. The hook is a melodic emulation of Justin Bieber's 'Baby' (unexpected yet brilliant)."
