"U Make Me Wanna" is a hip hop and R&B-flavored song by New York rapper Jadakiss, released as the third and final single from his second studio album, Kiss of Death.

The song features an interesting Middle Eastern/Indian-inspired beat, with synthesized flutes, sitar, orchestral strings and percussion.

"[2] Jon Caramanica of Rolling Stone wrote: "When he's (Jadakiss) undone, it's by tinkertoy production on tracks such as the insipid Mariah Carey vehicle 'U Make Me Wanna'".

[5] Aqua Boogie of Vibe wrote that love themed "U Make Me Wanna" shows that Jada has more to offer than body counts and gun talk.

"[6] Reviewing the album, RapReviews was favorable: "He even shows love for the ladies on the Mariah Carey-blessed 'U Make Me Wanna'.
