Written by Rodney "Darkchild" Jerkins, Dernst "D'Mile" Emile, Tasleema Yasin, and LaShawn Daniels and produced by Jerkins and Emile, it was released to urban radio on February 11, 2008 as the album's third U.S. single and second UK single.

ong information

As the single has a fan videoclip currently in productions, and due to the very low promotion given on radio stations and on TV, the song failed to chart in the United Kingdom. The song uses jazz harmonic, which were very popular in the late 1940s.

Reception

Critical

In reviews of "Discipline", Allmusic described "Luv" as "carrying a brisk, feel-good clap-and-bounce", [ [http://www.allmusic.com/cg/amg.dll?p=amg&token=&sql=10:w9fqxzwjldke allmusic ((( Discipline > Overview ))) ] ] while "Newsday" said the song "grooves along like it could have come from Ciara's album, aside from a few trade Jackson harmonies."
