LIL L.O.V.E. The song "Lil L.O.V.E." can be found at Bone Thugs-N-Harmony's album "Strength & Loyalty", which was released on April 17, 2007. The song was produced by Jermaine Dupri and features Mariah Carey and Bow Wow. It was the second single from the album. "She promised that she was gonna do a song with us once, and she kept her promise," Krayzie Bone told MTV News. Mariah not only kept her word, but she brought along Bow Wow to sweeten her offering on the song "Lil L.O.V.E.". "I call it 'Little Little'," she told MTV Europe. "It's a favorite of mine. It's a nice song, and I think it really kind of gives you the back-in-the-day Bone vibe but also a very new take on who they are as artists." Mariah said that she and other artists owe a debt to Bone Thugs-N-Harmony because their influence is so widespread in rap and hip-hop. "A lot of times people are like, 'I will make up a part', and people actually think they made up that part," she said. "But I am so influenced by their style that it kind of merges together. It's funny, because so many artists today are influenced by Bone, and they may not even realize it." On June 28, 2007, the music video to "Lil L.O.V.E." premiered on the internet. The video was shot in New York City by Chris Robinson who last directed Mariah in the video for the smash hit "I Know What You Want" with Busta Rhymes. Within a day, the video was removed from YouTube due to a copyright claim by the Universal Music Group.
