"Somebody Loves You Baby (You Know Who It Is)" is one of Patti LaBelle's signature songs released as a single in 1991 on the MCA Records label. The song was the second single to be released from LaBelle's acclaimed gold-selling CD, Burnin'. The song was co-written by LaBelle's friend and former Philadelphia International artist Bunny Sigler, who also produced the song. The song became a smash hit single for LaBelle reaching number two on the Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs chart in early 1992. Like her previous single, "Somebody Loves You..." was also shot at the Apollo. Rapper Plies later sampled the song for his track, "Somebody (Loves You)" off his second release, Definition of Real.
