"Every Little Thing I Do" is the second single from R&B group Soul 4 Real's first album, Candy Rain. Eldest brother, Chris, sings lead. While it was not as big a hit as "Candy Rain", it reached number 11 on the Billboard R&B chart and number 17 on the Billboard Hot 100.[1] The song samples "Outstanding" by The Gap Band. The single was certified Gold by the RIAA for selling over 500,000 copies in the United States on October 25, 1995. In 2018, Jase, the lead singer of Soul for Real, remade the group’s single “Every Little Thing I Do” on his solo project, called "If You Feel Like Me: The Mixtape".[2] Which features his brother Choc, who sang lead on the original song.

Directed by Brett Ratner, the video takes place in a club complete with a bar, roller rink and a rotating platform where the group is performing on. R&B girl group Total, rap group and former labelmates The Lost Boyz and their former boss the late Heavy D, make cameo appearances in the video.
