沒有愛

〈沒有愛〉（"No Love"）是美國饒舌歌手阿姆與小韋恩合作演唱的歌曲，出自阿姆第七張錄音室專輯《好的很》，於2010年10月5日作為專輯第三支單曲在電臺首播。這首歌由美國嘻哈唱片製作人Just Blaze製作，其副歌取樣自Haddaway1993年的歌曲〈What Is Love〉。〈沒有愛〉在《告示牌》百大單曲榜上排名最高時位列第23名，並在美國本土累積400萬次數位下載量，獲得美國唱片業協會4倍白金認證。《Complex》雜誌將這首歌評為2010年最佳歌曲第八名。
歌曲的音樂錄影帶由Chris Robinson (director)執導，預告片於2010年9月29日在阿姆的YouTube頻道上釋出，完整版於翌日發布。錄影帶講述一個被霸凌的小男孩在聽了阿姆和小韋恩的歌後變得更加茁壯的故事。阿姆和小韋恩先後於《週六夜現場》、波納羅音樂節等節目及活動中演唱這首歌。

**製作**
〈沒有愛〉由阿姆、小韋恩和Just Blaze共同創作，後者亦執手歌曲的製作。人聲由麥克·斯特蘭奇和瑞安·韋斯特在美國密西根州芬代爾的肖像工作室錄製。2010年8月27日，《告示牌》報導此曲將是《好的很》專輯的第三支單曲。歌曲於2010年10月5日衝擊電臺，時長五分鐘，以B大調譜寫，速度為每分鐘129拍；其副歌取樣自千里達-德國籍歌手Haddaway1993年的歌曲〈What Is Love〉。歌詞講述過去曾讓小韋恩和阿姆失望的人，並抨擊他們的反對者。
在談到為何與小韋恩合作時，阿姆表態是鑒於上次為小韋恩的專輯《Rebirth》做出〈Drop the World〉一曲後，他們達成等價交易，讓小韋恩也出現在他的專輯中。據製作人Just Blaze所說，他當初覺得原曲過於簡單，並想把他改編成「你可以真正嗨搖起來的東西」。接著他把樣本檔案給阿姆聆聽，阿姆理解其概念後就開始著手，並在兩天後錄唱了人聲。後來阿姆有意與小韋恩搭檔合唱，Blaze和阿姆兩人就飛往邁阿密找韋恩。小韋恩在一夜之間寫完並錄製了他的正歌。回到紐約後，Blaze再添加更多鉤子補強歌曲。

**評價**
整體而言，〈沒有愛〉獲得樂評家的普遍好評。《新音樂快遞》在對《好的很》專輯的評論中，對這首歌給予正面評價。作家山姆·沃爾夫森（Sam Wolfson）說：「在〈沒有愛〉中，小韋恩擔當了將近兩分半鐘的hype man，然後阿姆進來並唱出他職業生涯中最優秀的其中一段主歌。這讓韋恩聽起來像傑德沃德時代的香草冰。」BBC Music鍾愛這首歌中的取樣，指出其「出色地借用了哈德威1993年的熱門單曲〈What Is Love〉中歐陸舞曲的節奏，並邀請小韋恩客串一場壯麗但乏味的饒舌。」About.com的約翰·馬西森（John Matheessen）將這首歌評為《好的很》的四首最佳曲目之一。音樂網站前音後果的溫斯頓·羅賓斯（Winston Robbins）也贊成歌曲的取樣，並稱其為專輯中最優秀的曲目之一。
"'No Love' (feat. Lil' Wayne) is an instant hip-hop darling, first because this is a collaboration between two of the hottest MCs in the game, and second because it’s a solid piece. It samples Haddaway’s 'What Is Love', more commonly known as the song that Will Ferrell and Chris Kattan loved to bob their heads to on SNL, and seamlessly uses the sample and the chorus to produce an extremely impressive and highly listenable piece."

"No Love" debuted on the Billboard Hot 100 at number 23 on July 10, 2010 after the release of his album Recovery and remained on the charts for 20 weeks.

**Music video**

**Development**
The music video was directed by American music video director Chris Robinson, who previously directed both Eminem and Lil Wayne in the "Drop the World" music video. The video began shooting in June 2010. A thirty-second teaser was released on September 29, 2010, on Eminem's official YouTube channel. It shows Eminem rapping inside of a recording studio, interlaced with scenes where a child gets bullied. Some of the music video was shot in front of a green screen. Lil Wayne's part was filmed before he was incarcerated, according to a tweet from Eminem: "We got Wayne's verse filmed before he went away luckily. Gotta shoot the rest of a 'No Love' video real soon. Keep your head up Weezy!" The official music video premiered on Thursday, September 30 on VEVO and various MTV channels at 7:56 PM EST.

**Synopsis and reception**
The "No Love" video begins with a boy that has a flashback to an occasion when he is forced to evade several dodgeballs from bullies. He has several flashbacks of himself being bullied while he is in his room. The second one of them is when he goes to his locker to get his things with him and when he puts his hat on. The same bullies arrive and pick his hat off and start beating him. Lil Wayne begins rapping at this point. The bullying flashback scenes are interlaced with Wayne rapping in a black, smoky room, which was filmed in front of a green screen. Meanwhile, Eminem walks into the studio with his lyric sheet, preparing for his recording session. He also joins behind Lil Wayne in the black room. The school boy encounters the bullies again in the school corridor, banging into them, but he simply walks off. While the boy daydreams, he listens to songs by Eminem and Lil Wayne in his earphones. The walls in his room are covered with posters of the two rappers, including a promotional poster of 8 Mile, a hip hop musical film that stars Eminem. In another flashback, he is encountered by the bullies in a restroom. The boy's hat is thrown into the toilet and his school items are thrown out. At this point, Eminem begins singing the chorus and the boy is beaten up and left crying. During the chorus, it has Eminem singing in front of images of school playground equipment (a basketball ring, monkey bars, etc.) and dark clouds on a screen behind him.
During the second verse, Eminem appears in a recording studio, rapping his verse in "No Love." American hip hop producers Just Blaze, The Alchemist and Denaun Porter make cameo appearances in the studio. When the boy arrives home from school, his parents see his injuries and begin arguing. The boy leaves to go skateboarding. After listening to Eminem and Lil Wayne, he is motivated and soon has the urge to stand up to the bullies. He arrives wearing a hoodie. At first the boy gets knocked down, but gets back up. At this moment, Eminem finishes his verse and starts singing the chorus. The scenario appears to play out in several ways where in one scene the boy appears to strike one of the bullies and then runs, only to be caught by them. In the next scene, he appears to be on top of one of the bullies and strikes him yet near the end it only appears he postures against the bullies and then walks away. Eminem also finishes his session and leaves to end the video.
Kelley L. Carter from MTV News said, "Bullies beware!" and that the video "sends a powerful message, in line with much of his latest album, Recovery." Simon Vozick-Levinson from Entertainment Weekly gave a similar opinion, quoting, "Bullied schoolkids of the world, take heart: You have two very powerful allies named Eminem and Lil Wayne." Website Hypebeast said that "the clip sets its focus on growing pains."

**Live performances**
Eminem has performed "No Love" at The Home & Home Tour with American rapper Jay-Z. The duo performed the song at the Yankee Stadium in New York City on September 13, 2010, unaccompanied by Lil Wayne. Having performed the chorus and his own verse only, Eminem spoke about his feelings during the performance: "Do not think that I don’t know where I’m at right now, I’m also honored to be on this stage in The Bronx, the birthplace of hip hop." The two artists performed the song on Saturday Night Live during December 18, 2010 in Lil Wayne's first major television appearance since his release from prison. Many profane lyrics were replaced while the rest were not said at all. They were accompanied by electric guitars, musical keyboards and drums. The stage was decorated with holiday themed decorations. As worded by Mawuse Ziegbe from MTV, "Lil Wayne spit the first verse with his signature unhinged energy, asserting his return to the live-television circuit. Eminem helmed the rest of the song, nimbly dropping his lyrics with abandon." Eminem wore a black jacket and a cap, while Lil Wayne wore a white T-shirt. The performance also included other songs by each of the artists, such as "6 Foot 7 Foot" performed by Lil Wayne and "Won't Back Down" performed by Eminem. DJ Scoob Doo described Wayne's performance: "The energy in the building is historical and it's extra special to see everybody fight for position backstage to see Lil Wayne take over SNL."
The song was performed in the 2011 Bonnaroo Music & Arts Festival by Eminem and his hypeman Mr. Porter. He wore a black Bad Meets Evil T-shirt and camouflage shorts. He also performed songs with Royce da 5'9". Lil Wayne was not present at the live performance, despite performing in the festival. The performance was widely praised. According to James Montgomery of MTV News, "It's the same renewed vigor Eminem has displayed on his most-recent efforts." Adam Grahan from The Detroit News said "Eminem injected the Bonnaroo Music and Arts Festival with a heavy dose of Detroit swagger on Saturday night." Magazine The Hollywood Reporter described the performance: "Eminem was in top form, fast and angry as he stalked the stage in long camouflage shorts and a black t-shirt." Eminem performed "No Love" without Lil Wayne at Lollapalooza 2011 in Chicago on August 6, 2011. The performance was widely praised by news reporters.
