"Jenny from the Block" is an R&B and old school hip hop song, which lyrically is about Lopez's desire, despite her level of fame and fortune, to remain humble and true to her roots in The Bronx. The song was noted by critics for using a large amount of music samples from songs such as 20th Century Steel Band's "Heaven and Hell Is on Earth" (1975), Boogie Down Productions' "South Bronx" (1987), and "Hi-Jack" by Enoch Light.

While some critics praised the song and theme, others disregarded the lyrics as "silly" and "laughable". Despite this, the song became a commercial success, topping the charts in Canada, reaching number three on the US Billboard Hot 100 and charting within the top ten of several major music markets. The song's music video also caused controversy. It featured Lopez and her boyfriend at the time, Ben Affleck, who later credited the video with nearly "ruining his career", in several raunchy scenes through the paparazzi's point of view. The song has been referenced in popular culture and since its release, Lopez has been referred to as "Jenny from the Block" in the media. In 2024, Lopez sampled the song on "Hearts and Flowers", a song from her album This Is Me... Now which was recorded after reuniting with Affleck and their subsequent marriage.

Background and release edit

This Is Me... Then was scheduled to be released in November 2002. However, "Jenny from the Block" featuring rappers Jadakiss and Styles P of The LOX was leaked by a pop station in Hartford, Connecticut, and later distributed to other stations owned by Infinity Broadcasting. In response, Lopez and Epic Records pushed forward the album's release date to September 26, the same day "Jenny from the Block" was officially sent to US radio.[1] Unlike her previous studio albums: On the 6 (1999) and J.Lo (2001), Lopez had a more "hands-on" role on This Is Me... Then.[1] The album also had more of an adult-R&B sound. Musically, majority of the songs on This Is Me... Then were lyrically "dedicated" to her relationship with then-fiancé, actor Ben Affleck.[2] The Age newspaper said the album was a "declaration" of love for Affleck.[2] During an interview, Lopez said "I wrote a lot of songs inspired, in a way, by what I was going through at the time that this album was being made, and he [Affleck] was definitely a big part of that."[3] Several critics highlighted that the album showed how "smitten" she was, and that the content was borderline "annoying".[4]

During the production of the album, Affleck and Lopez were a prominent super couple in the media, and were dubbed "Bennifer". Lopez stated "We try to make the best of it [sic] I'm not saying there's not times that we wish [we] could just be going to the movies and come out and there's not a crowd there waiting. You just want to spend your Sunday afternoon not working, but at the same time we both love what we do. If that's something that's part of it, then that's fine. We feel the love and we're very happy about it."[3] The overexposure from the media and public interest in their relationship resulted in less admiration for their work and negatively affected their careers, in particular affecting the video for "Jenny from the Block".[5][6][7]

Production and lyrics edit

"Jenny from the Block" is an uptempo R&B and old school hip hop song. It was produced by Troy Oliver, written by Andre Deyo, remixed by Samuel Barnes, Jean-Claude Olivier, and contained samples by Enoch Light, Lawrence Parker, Scott Sterling and Michael Oliver. Trackmasters produced the song alongside Oliver and Cory Rooney.[8] The song "intones her modest childhood roots", with Lopez singing in the chorus: "Don't be fooled by the rocks that I got / I'm still, I'm still Jenny from the Block / Used to have a little now I have a lot / No matter where I go, I know where I came from". She implores the listener not to be fooled by the amount of money that she now possesses because she is still Jennifer from the same block. Despite now having a lot of money, she still knows where she comes from.[9] At the start of her career, J.Lo's first big break was as a backup dancer for New Kids on the Block.[10]

"Jenny from the Block" samples a number of songs. The opening line of the track, "Children grow and women producing, men go working, some go stealing, everyone's got to make a living", is derived from 20th Century Steel Band's 1975 song "Heaven and Hell Is on Earth".[8] The constant flute loop through the song is an interpolation of Enoch Light's "Hi-Jack" (1975), while the bridge samples Boogie Down Productions' "South Bronx" (1987).[11] Trackmasters allegedly incorporated the sample of The Beatnuts' song "Watch Out Now" from their album A Musical Massacre (1999), which also sampled "Hi-Jack", on the track.[12] Believing Lopez and the song's producers had stolen their sample of "Hi-Jack" without consent, they subsequently insulted Lopez on the song "Confused Rappers", from their album Milk Me (2004).[13][14] The group said: "Anybody familiar with our music who heard Jenny From The Block knew it was a Beatnuts beat. There's no getting around it. That's a straight-up bite. It's the same drums, the same flute, the same tempo... everything is our idea. If we never flipped that sample, there would be no Jenny From The Block."[15]

Critical response edit

"Jenny from the Block" generated a polarized reception among music critics and pop music fans, with some applauding it as a "strong self statement" and homage to Lopez's roots, and others dismissing it as "silly".[16][17] Sal Cinquemani of Slant Magazine called the song "infectious", but noted that it is "more like a disease than a chunky casserole".[12] Tom Sinclair of Entertainment Weekly was favorable, writing: "Lopez insists that fame hasn't changed her, and seduced by the breezy pleasure of her new music, we're almost inclined to believe her".[18] Arion Berger of Rolling Stone opined that the song "is worth listening to — its windup/wind-down chorus is as sly and curvy as Lopez".[19] On a list of "17 of the Best Songs About NYC", Time magazine placed "Jenny from the Block" at number twelve.[20] Complex magazine praised the inclusion of the "South Bronx" sample, writing: "After becoming a full-blown superstar whose entire life was different in every way, J. Lo was still trying to convince us she was "real" and still the same old girl from the block. What better way to connect to her roots musically than to put on for her hometown with the greatest Bronx anthem ever put to wax, BDP's "South Bronx"?"[11]

Allmusic's Stephen Thomas Erlewine gave the song an unfavorable review, calling it "silly" and describing the lyrics as "laughable".[21] James Poletti of Yahoo! Music was also negative, calling it "agonizing" and a "cynical appropriation of hip-hop culture".[22] Writing for The Village Voice, Jon Caramanica was highly unfavorable of "Jenny from the Block", stating that "Jenny aims to fast-talk herself into authenticity".[23] AOL Radio deemed it one of the "100 Worst Songs Ever" in 2010, remarking: "Yup, just your average girl, willing to risk a national TV gig over the size of her 'dressing-room compound.'"[24] In a countdown of "50 Most Awesomely Bad Songs ... Ever", VH1 and Blender ranked "Jenny from the Block" at number thirty-three.[25] Her Campus included the song on a list of "15 Songs We're Embarrassed to Still Know All the Lyrics To".[26] In a television special titled The 100 Most Annoying Pop Songs...We Hate To Love, BBC ranked "Jenny from the Block" at number one-hundred.[27] On a similar special for Channel 4 titled The 100 Worst Pop Records, the song was named the tenth worst song ever.[28] Amy Sciarretto of PopCrush observed in 2012: "'Jenny From the Block' is quite a polarizing track ... Either you love the 'J. Lo' tune because it's boastful and oozes confidence or you hate it because it's cheesy and makes use of flutes."[17]

Chart performance edit

On the US Billboard Hot 100, "Jenny from the Block" debuted at number 67 for the week of October 12, 2002.[29] By its third week on the Hot 100, the song had propelled to the top twenty, reaching number 17.[30] For the Billboard issue dated November 23, 2002, it entered the top ten of the Hot 100, jumping to number eight.

For three weeks it had been blocked from the top spot of both charts by Eminem's "Lose Yourself" and Missy Elliott's "Work It".[34] It peaked at two on the US Mainstream Top 40 Pop Songs and 22 on the US Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs chart.[35]

Music video edit

 
Lopez and Affleck surveilled by a camera in the "Jenny from the Block" music video

The song's accompanying music video was directed by Francis Lawrence.[44] Its theme revolves around the media invading Lopez's life, particularly her relationship with then-boyfriend, Ben Affleck.[45] The video was filmed entirely in Los Angeles, CA from October 18–20, 2002. It premiered on MTV's TRL on November 5, 2002, and on BET's 106 & Park on December 9, 2002.[citation needed]

The video begins with surveillance camera footage of Lopez and Affleck in their apartment. Lopez is then shown dancing in the apartment to music on her Mp3 player, which is captured by the paparazzi. She is also seen performing the song (clothed in different outfits) amid bright lights on the streets of New York City with Jadakiss and Styles P. Separate scenes depict Lopez on a yacht, sunbathing topless with her friends, and swimming in the ocean with Affleck. Footage of the couple having lunch at a restaurant and stopping at a gas station is also captured by the paparazzi. Lopez later visits a jewelry store, and sings "Loving You" in a recording studio. Finally, the couple are shown spending time together by a pool.

Speaking of the video, Melissa Ng of The Spectator wrote: "Before celebrities become stars, they dream about gaining fame, fortune, and being in the spotlight [sic] Jennifer Lopez released a video for her single, Jenny From the Block. The video is basically about how she cannot find privacy with her fiancé Ben Affleck. A lot of glamour is associated with fame and fortune; however, along with that glamour comes the loss of privacy."[45] Justine Ashley Costanza of International Business Times wrote in 2012: "Back when Lopez was engaged to the wholesome actor, she decided it would be best to make a video about how hard their lives were. Poor J-Lo couldn't lounge on her yacht, be adored in a hot tub, or wear her $1 million engagement ring without someone taking her picture. It's not easy being overly wealthy superstars. The video's premise shows Lopez dealing with the perils of fame the only way she knows how ... by taking off most of what she's wearing."[46]

Live performances edit

"Jenny from the Block" was performed at the 2018 MTV Video Music Awards on August 20, 2018. The song was performed by Lopez during the Super Bowl LIV halftime show.[47][48]

Impact edit

"Jenny from the Block" is considered one of Lopez's signature songs and most iconic single.[49][50] It began a trend of songs which juxtaposed "the performer's upbringing to their celebrity status".[51] The lyrical content of country artist Faith Hill's 2005 song "Mississippi Girl" was considered to be influenced by the song; Rolling Stone described it as "country music's version" of the single,[52] and Billboard called it "a countrified 'Jenny from the Block'".[53] Other songs noted to have followed the theme of "Jenny from the Block" were Gwen Stefani's "Orange County Girl" and Fergie's "Glamorous".[54][55] Mexican-American recording artist Becky G recorded a cover version of the song, entitled "Becky from the Block". The song's accompanying music video was shot in Inglewood, California.[56] Lopez made a cameo appearance towards the end of the music video.[57] The lyrics of this version are significantly different from the original.[58][59] Entertainment Tonight described the version to have "give[n] Jenny's NY-based tune a West Coast slant".[60]

 
 
U.S. Supreme Court justice Sonia Sotomayor (left) has earned the nickname "Sonia from the Block", while representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (right) used the song's lyrics in reference to herself.

Australian rapper Iggy Azalea referenced the song in her verse from Lopez's 2014 song "Booty", stating: "The last time the world seen a booty this good, it was on Jenny from the block."[61] In Lopez's 2018 single, "Dinero" featuring DJ Khaled, American rapper Cardi B ends her verse by referencing rapper's and Lopez's beginnings: "Two bad bitches that came from the Bronx, Cardi from the pole and Jenny from the block".[62] Rapper Drake, who Lopez was believed to have been romantically involved with in the past, references her and the song in his 2018 single "In My Feelings", stating: "From the block like you Jenny/ I know you special, girl, 'cause I know too many."[63]

The song has been referenced with respect to other public figures hailing from the Bronx. United States Supreme Court justice Sonia Sotomayor has been referred to as "Sonia from the Block" in the media,[64][65] a nickname used by her own clerks.[66] Representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez referenced the song's lyrics while showing off a plaque for her Capitol Hill office, writing: "Don’t be fooled by the plaques that we got, I'm still, I'm still Alex from the Bronx" on Twitter.[67]

In the past decade since the song's release, Lopez has been nicknamed "Jenny from The Block" in the media, a name news reporters and journalists often use.[68][69] At the 68th Golden Globe Awards in 2011, comedian Ricky Gervais referenced the song: "She's just Jenny from the block. If the block in question is that one on Rodeo Drive between Cartier and Prada."[70] In October 2015, a video clip filmed in Afghanistan years ago surfaced online of two US Marines singing "Jenny from the Block" moments before being fired at by the Taliban.[71]

Ben Affleck's appearance in the song's music video became notorious, having been released at the peak of the couple's "frenzied" tabloid coverage. Paper magazine wrote: "Love makes people do crazy things, and that's our only explanation for this."[72] Their relationship received widespread media coverage,[73] with "excessive media attention" factoring into their cancelled wedding and subsequent breakup.[74][75] Lopez later described the split as her "first real heartbreak" and attributed it in part to Affleck's discomfort with the media scrutiny.[76] In 2008, Affleck said he nearly "ruined" his career by starring in the clip: "If I have a big regret, it was doing the music video. But that happened years ago. I've moved on." He also stated: "It not only makes me look like a petulant fool (to blame Lopez), but it surely qualifies as ungentlemanly? For the record, did she hurt my career? No."[77] In response, Latina magazine wrote: "Riiiigght. So it wasn't a string of bad movies starting with Reindeer Games in 2000 and a general lack of on-screen appeal that ruined your career, right Ben? It was a music video. What else can we blame on a music video? Global warming?"[78] Following Lopez's marriage to Marc Anthony, she reportedly attempted to have the music video blocked from television networks such as VH1 and MTV.[79]

In 2024, Lopez released her ninth studio album This Is Me... Now, which features interpolations of "Jenny from the Block" on the song "Hearts & Flowers".[80] The latter was referred to by some critics such as The Arts Desk as a "sequel of sorts" to "Jenny from the Block".[81] The interpolation and album, both come at a time when Lopez and Affleck reunited romantically in 2022 and married in 2023. This is Me...Now was recorded across 2022-2023 and was inspired by this reunion.[82]

feat Jadakiss Styles P on YouTube Jenny from the Block is an R amp B and old school hip hop song which lyrically is about Lopez s desire despite her level of fame and fortune to remain humble and true to her roots in The Bronx The song was noted by critics for using a large amount of music samples from songs such as 20th Century Steel Band s Heaven and Hell Is on Earth 1975 Boogie Down Productions South Bronx 1987 and Hi Jack by Enoch Light While some critics praised the song and theme others disregarded the lyrics as silly and laughable Despite this the song became a commercial success topping the charts in Canada reaching number three on the US Billboard Hot 100 and charting within the top ten of several major music markets The song s music video also caused controversy It featured Lopez and her boyfriend at the time Ben Affleck who later credited the video with nearly ruining his career in several raunchy scenes through the paparazzi s point of view The song has been referenced in popular culture and since its release Lopez has been referred to as Jenny from the Block in the media In 2024 Lopez sampled the song on Hearts and Flowers a song from her album This Is Me Now which

other stations owned by Infinity Broadcasting In response Lopez and Epic Records pushed forward the album s release date to September 26 the same day Jenny from the Block was officially sent to US radio 1 Unlike her previous studio albums On the 6 1999 and J Lo 2001 Lopez had a more hands on role on This Is Me Then 1 The album also had more of an adult R amp B sound Musically majority of the songs on This Is Me Then were lyrically dedicated to her relationship with then fiance actor Ben Affleck 2 The Age newspaper said the album was a declaration of love for Affleck 2 During an interview Lopez said I wrote a lot of songs inspired in a way by what I was going through at the time that this album was being made and he Affleck was definitely a big part of that 3 Several critics highlighted that the album showed how smitten she was and that the content was borderline annoying 4 During the production of the album Affleck and Lopez were a prominent super couple in the media and were dubbed Bennifer Lopez stated We try to make the best of it sic I m not saying there s not times that we wish we could just be going to the movies and come out and there s not a crowd there waiting You just want to spend your Sunday afternoon not working but at the same time we both love what we do If that s something that s part of it then that s fine We feel the love and we re very happy about it 3 The overexposure from the media and public interest in their relationship resulted in less admiration for their work and negatively affected their careers in particular affecting the video for Jenny from the Block 5 6 7 Production and lyrics edit nbsp Jenny from the Block 2002 source source A 19 second sample consisting of the chorus from Jenny from the Block in which Lopez professes No matter where I go I know where I came from 8 Problems playing this file See media help Jenny from the Block is an uptempo R amp B and old school hip hop song It was produced by Troy Oliver written by Andre Deyo remixed by Samuel Barnes Jean Claude Olivier and contained samples by Enoch Light Lawrence Parker Scott Sterling and Michael Oliver Trackmasters produced the song alongside Oliver and Cory Rooney 8 The song intones her modest childhood roots with Lopez singing in the chorus Don t be fooled by the rocks that I got I m still I m still Jenny from the Block Used to have a little now I have a lot No matter where I go I know where I came from She implores the listener not to be fooled by the amount of money that she now possesses because she is still Jennifer from the same block Despite now having a lot of money she still knows where she comes from 9 At the start of her career J Lo s first big break was as a backup dancer for New Kids on the Block 10 Jenny from the Block samples a number of songs The opening line of the track Children grow and women producing men go working some go stealing everyone s got to make a living is derived from 20th Century Steel Band s 1975 song Heaven and Hell Is on Earth 8 The constant flute loop through the song is an interpolation of Enoch Light s Hi Jack 1975 while the bridge samples Boogie Down Productions South Bronx 1987 11 Trackmasters allegedly incorporated the sample of The Beatnuts song Watch Out Now from their album A Musical Massacre 1999 which also sampled Hi Jack on the track 12 Believing Lopez and the song s producers had stolen their sample of Hi Jack without consent they subsequently insulted Lopez on the song Confused Rappers from their album Milk Me 2004 13 14 The group said Anybody familiar with our music who heard Jenny From The Block knew it was a Beatnuts beat There s no getting around it That s a straight up bite It s the same drums the same flute the same tempo everything is our idea If we never flipped that sample there would be no Jenny From The Block 15 Critical response edit Jenny from the Block generated a polarized reception among music critics and pop music fans with some applauding it as a strong self statement and homage to Lopez s roots and others dismissing it as silly 16 17 Sal Cinquemani of Slant Magazine called the song infectious but noted that it is more like a disease than a chunky casserole 12 Tom Sinclair of Entertainment Weekly was favorable writing Lopez insists that fame hasn t changed her and seduced by the breezy pleasure of her new music we re almost inclined to believe her 18 Arion Berger of Rolling Stone opined that the song is worth listening to its windup wind down chorus is as sly and curvy as Lopez 19 On a list of 17 of the Best Songs About NYC Time magazine placed Jenny from the Block at number twelve 20 Complex magazine praised the inclusion of the South Bronx sample writing After becoming a full blown superstar whose entire life was different in every way J Lo was still trying to convince us she was real and still the same old girl from the block What better way to connect to her roots musically than to put on for

Jennifer Lopez released a video for her single Jenny From the Block The video is basically about how she cannot find privacy with her fiance Ben Affleck A lot of glamour is associated with fame and fortune however along with that glamour comes the loss of privacy 45 Justine Ashley Costanza of International Business Times wrote in 2012 Back when Lopez was engaged to the wholesome actor she decided it would be best to make a video about how hard their lives were Poor J Lo couldn t lounge on her yacht be adored in a hot tub or wear her 1 million engagement ring without someone taking her picture It s not easy being overly wealthy superstars The video s premise shows Lopez dealing with the perils of fame the only way she knows how by taking off most of what she s wearing 46 Live

Jenny from the block If the block in question is that one on Rodeo Drive between Cartier and Prada 70 In October 2015 a video clip filmed in Afghanistan years ago surfaced online of two US Marines singing Jenny from the Block moments before being fired at by the Taliban 71 Ben Affleck s appearance in the song s music video became notorious having been released at the peak of the couple s frenzied tabloid coverage Paper magazine wrote Love makes people do crazy things and that s our only explanation for this 72 Their relationship received widespread media coverage 73 with excessive media attention factoring into their cancelled wedding and subsequent breakup 74 75 Lopez later described the split as her first real heartbreak and attributed it in part to Affleck s discomfort with the media scrutiny 76 In 2008 Affleck said he nearly ruined his career by starring in the clip If I have a big regret it was doing the music video But that happened years ago I ve moved on He also stated It not only makes me look like a petulant fool to blame Lopez but it surely qualifies as ungentlemanly For the record did she hurt my career No 77 In response Latina magazine wrote Riiiigght So it wasn t a string of bad movies starting with Reindeer Games in 2000 and a general lack of on screen appeal that ruined your career right Ben It was a music video What else can we blame on a music video Global warming 78 Following Lopez s marriage to Marc Anthony she reportedly attempted to have the music video blocked from television networks such as VH1 and MTV 79 In 2024 Lopez released her
