"I Got That" is a hip-hop song by American rapper Amil from her album All Money Is Legal (2000). She wrote the track with its producers, L.E.S. and Poke & Tone, along with Jay-Z, Makeda Davis, and Tamy Lestor Smith. In the lyrics, Amil encourages women to seek out emotional, financial, and romantic independence. "I Got That" uses a sample from the 1985 Gwen Guthrie song "Seventh Heaven". Beyoncé performs the song's chorus and backing vocals, as her label was trying to assess her viability as a solo artist outside of her girl group Destiny's Child.

Roc-A-Fella and Columbia Records released "I Got That" on July 5, 2000, as the lead single from All Money Is Legal. It was Amil's debut solo single after featuring on songs by Jay-Z and other Roc-A-Fella artists. Jay-Z and Darren Grant directed the music video, which shows Amil and Beyoncé shopping. In the United States, "I Got That" topped the Billboard Bubbling Under R&B/Hip-Hop Singles chart in September 2000. Contemporary critics negatively compared the single to the more personal tracks on the album; later coverage focused on Beyoncé, who was praised for her vocals. According to retrospective articles, the song has largely been forgotten or overlooked since its release.
