"Someone to Love" is the fifth track on Jon B.'s debut album, Bonafide. This song is a duet with Babyface that gained wide exposure on the Bad Boys soundtrack.

The song, with a style very much inspired by Babyface, peaked at #10 on the U.S. Hot 100 chart and at #7 on the U.S. R&B chart.

The song received a Grammy Award nomination for the category Best Pop Collaboration with Vocals in 1996. The then 21-year-old Jon B. stated he felt the nomination was "an honor he could not have asked for."
