"Can't Get Enough" is a song by American singer Jennifer Lopez. It was released on January 12, 2024, by Nuyorican Productions and BMG as the first single from her upcoming ninth studio album This Is Me... Now (2024). The song was written by Lopez, Alton Ellis, Andrew Nealy, Angel Lopez, Atia Boggs, Rogét Chahayed, Dennis Coffey, Christopher "Chrishan" Dotson, Jeff "Gitty" Gitelman and Chauncey "Hit-Boy" Hollis Jr., with production by Chahayed, Hit-Boy, Gitty and A. Lopez. Ellis is credited for the inclusion of his 1967 single "I'm Still In Love", sampled in "Can't Get Enough".

Background and production

"Can't Get Enough" and its parent album This Is Me... Now were mainly recorded between May and August 2022. During this time, Lopez also rekindled her relationship with actor Ben Affleck, commenting during an interview with Zane Lowe that the reunion had inspired her to make new music in a way not felt since her third album This Is Me... Then (2002) when Lopez and Affleck were previously together.[2] Lopez first teased "Can't Get Enough" when she performed it during her wedding to Affleck in August 2022.[3] It was confirmed that further recording for the album took place up until June 29, 2023, when it was confirmed that the album was complete.[4] On September 11, 2023, it was announced Lopez had signed a "recording and publishing partnership" deal with BMG Rights Management, in conjunction with her own Nuyorican Productions.[5]

Release and composition

"Can't Get Enough" is a pop song, with a "feel good" vibe, according to NME.[1] Lopez wrote it alongside Andrew Nealy, Angel Lopez, Atia Boggs, Rogét Chahayed, Dennis Coffey, Christopher "Chrishan" Dotson, Jeff "Gitty" Gitelman, Chauncey "Hit-Boy" Hollis Jr., with production by Chahayed, Hit-Boy, Gitty and Angel Lopez. Alton Ellis is also credited as his 1967 song "I'm Still in Love" is sampled in "Can't Get Enough".[1] Chris Méndez, writing for Forbes, stated that the song recalls the same "R&B" stylings as Lopez's music was more known for two decades previously.[6]

On November 27, 2023, it was confirmed that the first single from This Is Me... Now would be called "Can't Get Enough" and would be released on January 10, 2024, with album and accompanying docu-film based on the album arriving February 16, 2024.[7] On the decision to begin the album campaign with "Can't Get Enough", Lopez said "feel like 'Can't Get Enough' is a perfect way to kind of come out of the box with this one because it does have that like my performance energy."[8] It was released for streaming on January 10, 2024,[9] and two days later to Italian radio stations.[10]

Critical reception

Reviewers from NME and Rolling Stone called "Can't Get Enough" an "anthem" and a "catchy bop", respectively.[1][11] Similarly, Vogue Arabia's Naheed Ifteqar commended the song's playful and upbeat nature.[12] The New Zealand Herald praised the song's "catchy" appeal and "good beat" but their reviewer Graham Reid said they hoped the album would have more substance about the love story Lopez has promised.[13] Exclaim! gave the song a much less favourable review, stating it continued a trend of "mediocre music", the reviewer commented on some of Lopez's previous music being demoed by other artists but stated that on "Can't Get Enough", Lopze's vocals were "compressed to conceal any similarities". The reviewer ended by calling the song forgettable, lacking in identity and personality "lost in an atrocious mix".[14]

Promotion

Aside from performing "Can't Get Enough" live at her wedding to Affleck in August 2022,[3] Lopez teased the single with snippets and guerrilla-style social media posts, including a video of her walking and dancing to song along with its announcement on November 27[7] and on January 2, a video of Lopez and Enola Bedard dancing to a mash-up of "Can't Get Enough" and "Jiggie Woogie" by Baby Lawd and D-Legend.[15]

Music video

The music video for "Can't Get Enough" was released alongside the song on January 10, 2024, and was directed by Dave Meyers. It is wedding-inspired, which NME's Liberty Dunworth suspected came from Lopez's real-life wedding to Affleck.[1] Speaking about the concept of the video, Lopez said "It's definitely kind of a meta story about the journey that it takes from getting from heartbreak back to love."[16] It begins with Lopez exchanging vows in the rain and guests joking about how quickly she gets married.[11] Throughout the visuals, the wedding is narrated by guests who joke about Lopez's inability to find love, interspersed with scenes of Lopez in a wedding dress and dancing with different grooms including professional dancer Derek Hough and actor Trevor Jackson.[17][16] During the visual, Lopez wears several different wedding dresses including a "mermaid silhouette with a heart-shaped cut-out" and a second one more akin to a "minidress with voluminous skirt"[12] Guests point out and ask the question if its "third time lucky?", mirroring real life as Lopez has been married several times. During the bouquet-throwing portion of the wedding, guests proclaim "Don't catch it! It's cursed."[11] The video ends with a scene featuring Lopez in a marriage counsellor's office and being told things that various partners hate about her, including: "She doesn't listen! She thinks I'm her employee. All she cares about is work."[17] Lopez said Affleck was involved in the making of the video, confirming she asked his opinion as no one knew her love story in real life better than him.[12]
