"Let Me Love You" is a song by American singer Ariana Grande featuring American rapper Lil Wayne from the former's third studio album Dangerous Woman (2016). It was written by the artists alongside Victoria Monét and producers TB Hits and Steven Franks. The song was released as the second promotional single from the album on April 18, 2016. A slow-paced, sultry R&B track, "Let Me Love You" features delicate piano chords, electro-beats, smooth, deep bass, trap-lite, hip-hop beats, and interspersed vocals. Lyrically, the song talks about getting over an ex and laying on the chest of someone new.
A music video for the song, directed by Grant Singer, was released on May 16, 2016. For the first week, the music video was available to watch exclusively on Apple Music. It shows Grande in various intimate settings and Wayne appears as well. The music video spawned a nomination for Best Collaboration Video at the 2016 MTV Video Music Awards.
