"Break 4 Love" is a song written, produced and recorded by Vaughan Mason, the principal member of house music group Raze, the song's original credited performer. The song, the group's only significant U.S. hit, featured vocals by Keith Thompson and sexual sound samples by Erique Dial. The single peaked at number 28 in the UK Singles Chart and it topped the U.S. Hot Dance Club Play chart in 1988. It is still considered a classic of the early house music genre.
The song has been remixed, re-recorded and reissued on several different independent dance music labels, the most significant of which, "All 4 Love (Break 4 Love 1990)" which featured Lady J and The Secretary of Entertainment produced by Erique Dial climbed to number 30 in the UK in early 1990. The song's drum loop is a reworking of the beat from "Today, Tomorrow and Forever", a 1987 song by The Castle Beat.
The song can be heard in the video game Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas, on the in-game radio station SF-UR, which also features other house music songs by different artists.

Famous quotes containing the words break and/or love:
“It took nine years, and a great depression, and two wars ending in defeat, and one surrender without war, to break my faith in the benign power of the press. Gradually I came to realize that people will more readily swallow lies than truth, as if the taste of lies was homey, appetizing: a habit.”
—Martha Gellhorn (b. 1908)
“There is something in the unselfish and self-sacrificing love of a brute, which goes directly to the heart of him who has had frequent occasion to test the paltry friendship and gossamer fidelity of mere Man.”
—Edgar Allan Poe (1809–1845)
