"Got to Have Your Love" is a song by American hip hop and electro funk group Mantronix, featuring vocals from American recording artist Wondress. It was released by Capitol Records in December 1989 as the lead single from Mantronix's fourth studio album, This Should Move Ya (1990). The song is written by band members Bryce Wilson and Kurtis Mantronik along with Johnny D. Rodriguez, and produced by Mantronix. It reached number four in the UK, number seven in Finland and number eight in Ireland. It is recognized as the group's signature song.

Song information

[edit]

"Got to Have Your Love" was written by Mantronix members Bryce Wilson and Kurtis Mantronik, alongside Johnny D. Rodriguez. Mantronik stated that "When I did 'Got to Have Your Love', I did it for a reason. I did it because I wanted to get a song on the radio."[1]

Critical reception

[edit]

Upon the release, Bill Coleman from Billboard wrote that the act "is back on the right track with an R&B-textured hip-hop track (à la vintage Joyce Sims) sporting a sensuous vocal performance by newcomer Wondress. Black radio needs to be on this tip as well."[2] Dave Obee from Calgary Herald complimented the group for "find[ing] a funky groove".[3] Push from Melody Maker felt they "returns with what is basically a half-hearted hip-house thang", calling it "slappy, slushy and slumped at the waist."[4] Pan-European magazine Music & Media named it "attractive hip/house featuring a melodic and soulful lead vocal by Wondress. Classy stuff."[5]

David Giles from Music Week remarked that Mantronik "appears to have stepped into Soul II Soul/Inner City domain, roping in a bluesy female vocalist and coating her in swooming strings (sampled naturally). Altogether a funker effort than those of his UK counterparts".[6] Jack Barron from NME wrote, "Curtis has obviously been listening to Soul II Soul over there in New York and here compresses together a woman singer called Wondress (what a groovy name) and a rapper on an organic shuffle. Not instantaneous, but I've got a feeling 'Got to Have Your Love' is one of those records which will creep up on you like infatuation as opposed to some pug ugly swine with an axe in its trotter."[7] Miranda Sawyer from Smash Hits praised it as "perfection".[8]

Retrospective response

[edit]

In his retrospective review of the This Should Move Ya album, Ron Wynn from AllMusic described "Got to Have Your Love" as a "strong single".[9] While reviewing the compilation album The Best Of: 1985-1999, Andy Crysell from NME stated that the song "remains a bewitching soul classic".[10] In 2020, Mixmag included "Got to Have Your Love" in their list of "The Best Basslines in Dance Music", writing, "Sublime, soul-licked vocals from Wondress definitely gave it the flavour it needed for mainstream success, but it's also charged by one of the best basslines in pop history."[11]

Music video

[edit]

The accompanying music video for "Got to Have Your Love" includes a cameo by former child model and now music producer Felix Howard.[12]
