"Portrait of Love" is the official first single from Cheri Dennis' debut album In and Out of Love. The single features her Bad Boy label-mates Yung Joc & Gorilla Zoe. The song was originally entitled "Portrait" and only featured Yung Joc, until it was decided to change the title and to add Gorilla Zoe due to the single being leaked for a year.

[edit] Video

The video premiered on BET's 106 & Park on December 3, 2007 as the new joint.

The first scene in the video Cheri is standing next to Joc while he is rapping his verse in a auditorium, she is walking around in a museum full of people. The next scene has a blue background, Cheri is wearing a silver trench coat with her hair in curls dancing with four other women. The third scene of the video Cheri is wearing a silhouette while her dancers are nude with a silk sheet covering their bodies. For Gorilla Zoe's verse he is sitting in a chair in the lobby of a hotel rapping. For Cheri's last scene she is laying on the floor along with three other women, the background is black and the vision is kind of slurry.
