"Who Do You Love" is a song performed by American contemporary R&B singer Bernard Wright, co-written[1] by Wright and Lenny White. The song was issued as the first single from Wright's third studio album Mr. Wright. The song was his highest chart appearance on the Billboard R&B chart, peaking at #6 in 1985.[3][4] The female vocalist was Marla Adler.

"Who Do You Love" was covered by co-writer Lenny White in 1995[5] as well as gospel group Winans Phase 2 in 1999. Since the song's release, it has been sampled in numerous songs: "Never Been in Love B4" by Shinehead, "If It Ain't Love" by Tichina Arnold, "Tell Me (I'll Be Around)" by Shades, "Who Is a Thug" by Big Pun, and "Is It Kool?" by Luniz; as well as in the remix of "Loungin" by LL Cool J.[6] The song was regarded as Wright's most significant R&B appearance.[7]

The official music video for the song was directed by Zbigniew Rybczyński.[8]
