"Love Me or Hate Me" was the fourth single from Public Warning, the debut album by English grime artist Lady Sovereign, and it arrived in October 2006 on Def Jam with Łukasz "Dr. Luke" Gottwald producing; Gottwald shares the writing credit with Louise Amanda Harman. The video stacks her up in Tetris-style blocks, acting out the words.
No British rapper had topped MTV's TRL before it did, and it became her first American chart single, peaking at 45 on the Hot 100 and selling more than 750,000 copies there. In Britain it climbed to 26 in 2007, her highest-charting solo hit. It got around, too, from a Verizon Wireless spot for the LG Chocolate to the Bad Girls Club theme and Need for Speed: Carbon, and Blender ranked it the 32nd best song of 2006.
