Composition
On the 6 incorporates parts of Lopez's life, which is evident in the track "Feeling So Good". The opening track, "If You Had My Love" is a soulful Pop and R&B influenced song which was written by Rodney Jerkins, LaShawn Daniels and Cory Rooney. The next set of songs are ballads, "Should've Never" and "Too Late" show off the gentler and lighter side of Lopez's vocals. In "Should've Never", Lopez has an "orgasmic Spanish moan." "Let's Get Loud" has a more fiery upbeat sound. "Feelin' So Good", produced by her then-boyfriend Sean Combs is one of the Hip-hop influenced songs on the album. "Waiting for Tonight" and "Open off My Love" draw inspiration from rap, R&B and Latin styles and make use of horns, keyboards and intense beats.

Famous quotes containing the word composition:
“There was not a grain of poetry in the whole composition of Lord Fawn, and poetry was what her very soul craved;Mpoetry, together with houses, champagne, jewels, and admiration.”
—Anthony Trollope (1815–1882)
“Since body and soul are radically different from one another and belong to different worlds, the destruction of the body cannot mean the destruction of the soul, any more than a musical composition can be destroyed when the instrument is destroyed.”
—Oscar Cullman. Immortality of the Soul or Resurrection of the Dead? The Witness of the New Testament, ch. 1, Epworth Press (1958)
“If I don’t write to empty my mind, I go mad. As to that regular, uninterrupted love of writing ... I do not understand it. I feel it as a torture, which I must get rid of, but never as a pleasure. On the contrary, I think composition a great pain.”
—George Gordon Noel Byron (1788–1824)
