Which 2003 Beyoncé single won the Grammy for Best R&B Song?

Beyoncé’s 2003 single “Crazy in Love” won the Grammy Award for Best R&B Song. The song features rapper Jay-Z and was released as the lead single from Beyoncé’s debut solo album, Dangerously in Love.

The track was built around a prominent horn sample from the Chi-Lites’ 1970 song “Are You My Woman (Tell Me So).” Its energetic arrangement, repeated “uh-oh” vocal hook, and high-profile video helped establish Beyoncé as a major solo performer after her years with Destiny’s Child.

“Crazy in Love” won two Grammy Awards at the 46th Annual Grammy Awards in 2004: Best R&B Song and Best Rap/Sung Collaboration. The latter award recognized the interaction between Beyoncé’s sung performance and Jay-Z’s rap verse. It is distinct from “Single Ladies,” which became one of Beyoncé’s later signature singles.
