What was the title of Beyoncé’s first number-one single on the US Billboard Hot 100?

“Crazy in Love” was Beyoncé’s first number-one single on the US Billboard Hot 100.

The song reached the top of the chart in 2003 after its release as the lead single from Dangerously in Love. It marked a major transition from Beyoncé’s established role in Destiny’s Child to her independent solo career. Jay-Z appears on the recording, and Rich Harrison produced the track around a striking horn-led sample.

“Crazy in Love” spent eight weeks at number one on the Billboard Hot 100. Its success was reinforced by an acclaimed music video directed by Jake Nava, which introduced choreography and visual styling that became closely associated with Beyoncé’s early solo era.

Later Beyoncé singles that also topped the Hot 100 include “Baby Boy,” “Irreplaceable,” “Single Ladies (Put a Ring on It),” and “Break My Soul.” The question refers to chronological order, not to the song’s biggest sales total or Grammy count. “Crazy in Love” is the first of those number-one solo singles.
