"Marry Me" is a song by American singer Jennifer Lopez and Colombian singer Maluma. It was released through Universal Studios and Sony Music Latin on February 2, 2022, as the third single from the soundtrack to the 2022 romantic comedy film of the same name.

The ballad version was written by Michael Pollack, Nicholas Sarazen, Olivia Waithe, Maluma and Edgar Barrera and produced by Kim Burse and Kevin Teasley. The uptempo version was produced by Pollack, The Monsters & Strangerz and Sarazen and features additional writing from Stefan Johnson, Jordan Johnson and Oliver Peterhof.

Music video[edit]

Kat & Bastian Duet[edit]

The music video for the "Kat & Bastian Duet" version of "Marry Me", premiered exclusively on Facebook on March 18, 2021,[1] and later on YouTube on June 18, 2022.

Ballad[edit]

The music video for the ballad version of "Marry Me" was released on March 11, 2022. In the video, Ben Affleck makes a cameo appearance.[2]

The bed sequence of the music video has a link to an earlier Lopez music video, "Baby I Love U!" (an Affleck-inspired song), as both music videos have a bed sequence. In 'Baby I love U' she is alone in bed and looking at the camera, but in the music video for Marry Me (Ballad) she is seen in bed alongside Affleck.

Critical reception[edit]

Tomás Mier of Rolling Stone called the "Kat & Bastian Duet" version of "Marry Me" an "earnworm" and said that while the lyrics are repetitive, Lopez's "sugary vocals" and its "cinematic production" make up for it. He, however, stated that the ballad version "falls flat".[3]
