"Before I Lay (You Drive Me Crazy)" is a 1996 song by American musician CeCe Peniston, released as a duet with JoJo Hailey of Jodeci. The single was released as the second single from the singer's third and final studio album, I'm Movin' On (1996). It peaked at number fifty-two on the US Billboard R&B chart, while reaching number twenty-one on the Billboard Bubbling Under Hot 100 Singles chart (a virtual equivalent to number 121 on the Billboard Hot 100).
Critical reception
Peter Miro from Cash Box wrote, "Hailey makes a strong statement when paired with house diva Peniston, here flexing her soulful capabilities in a steamy situation that should make for an urban radio mainstay in key markets. Approaches the chemistry of K Ci's duet with Mary J. Blige three years ago, and has party slow jam written all over it for close-clinging baptisms of fire."[1]
