"Still Believe in Love" is a song by American singer Mary J. Blige. It was written by Blige, Jeff "Gitty" Gitelman, DJ Cassidy, Bradley Thomas, Jr., Eliott Trent, and guest vocalist Vado, while production was helmed by Cassidy and Gitelman along with Kuk Harrell and Jelli Dorman. The song contains a sample from "C.O.D. (I'll Deliver)" (1984) by American R&B group Mtume. Due to the inclusion of the sample, Mtume band members James Mtume and Tawatha Agee are also credited as songwriters.

In September 2023, Blige first performed "Still Believe in Love" for the first time with Vado at the Hip Hop Forever concert.[1] The song was eventually released by Blige's record label Beautiful Life Music as a standalone single on October 27, 2023. In late 2003, it became Blige's eighth chart topper on the Adult R&B Songs chart. In early 2024, the song also peaked at number 12 on the US R&B/Hip-Hop Airplay chart.

Critical reception

Gabriel Bras Nevares from HotNewHipHop described "Still Believe in Love" as a "classic, Bad Boy-era R&B and hip-hop fusion as its instrumentation. With slick bass playing, bright keys and synth pads, plus some gorgeous vocal harmonies, it's a pretty fitting and effectively breezy throwback cut. Still, don't let that old-school feeling distract you from the modern sheen and crispness of the production."[2] Antwane Folk from Rated R&B commented on the song: "Beaming in energy and pure, optimistic joy, Blige sings about being selective in finding her next companion. Despite a previous failed romance, she remains open to new love, encouraging those who have gone through heartbreak to do the same."[3]

"Still Believe in Love" peaked at number 12 on the US R&B/Hip-Hop Airplay chart in the week January 13, 2024.[4] It also reached the top spot of Billboard's US Adult R&B Songs chart,[5] becoming Blige's seventh number-one hit on the chart.[6] It would remain eight weeks atop the chart.[5]
