"I'm Looking for the One (To Be with Me)" is a song by American hip hop duo DJ Jazzy Jeff & The Fresh Prince, released in November 1993 by Jive as the third single from the duo's fifth studio album, Code Red (1993). The song peaked at number 79 on the US Billboard Hot 100. It samples "Tell Me If You Still Care", a song sung by the S.O.S. Band, and is written by Jimmy Jam & Terry Lewis.

Critical reception

In his weekly UK chart commentary, James Masterton felt that here, the rappers are "moving back into the more laidback groove that first brought them Top 10 success in 1991 with "Summertime" and although probably destined not to be as big as the last hit, it stands a chance of becoming Top 20 next week."[1] Alan Jones from Music Week described it as "a slower rap track that samples the SOS Band's "Tell Me If You Still Care", and includes some nice vocoder work. The more gentle style works well, and the Fresh Prince's rap nicely disses gangsta rap. Not another number one, but strong enough to reach the Top 10."[2]

David Quantick from NME constated that the duo return with "a '70s groove", adding that Fresh Prince's pop grooves are the "exact equivalent" of The Fresh Prince of Bel Air.[3] James Hamilton from the Record Mirror Dance Update called it a "Teddy Riley produced languid Zapp-style vocodered sinuous thigh twiner".[4] Alex Kadis from Smash Hits gave "I'm Looking for the One (To Be with Me)" four out of five, writing, "Smoochier than "Boom", this has precise lyrical rap, funky chunky beats and strong clear vocals. Dead sexy too."[5]
