"I Love My Bitch" (or "I Love My Chick" in its edited version) is the second single from Busta Rhymes's seventh studio album The Big Bang. The single features guest vocals from will.i.am – who also produced the single – and Kelis.

The release date for the single in the UK was July 10, 2006. However, due to UK chart rules allowing songs to chart on download sales alone, one week before the single's physical release, it was the second consecutive Busta Rhymes hit to make the top 40, entering at number twenty three on download sales only, the same position that "Touch It" had charted at. Upon its physical release, the single became his second consecutive top 10 solo hit, peaking at number eight there, two positions lower than "Touch It" had charted.

There are a total of 92 profane words throughout the song. This song also recognized will.i.am as a producer.
