Which artist is featured on Beyoncé’s 2003 single “Baby Boy”?

Sean Paul is featured on Beyoncé’s 2003 single “Baby Boy.”

“Baby Boy” was released as the second single from Beyoncé’s debut solo album, Dangerously in Love. The track blends contemporary R&B with dancehall and reggae influences, and Sean Paul contributes a guest verse that gives the song its distinctive Caribbean crossover character.

Beyoncé co-wrote the song with Scott Storch, Robert Waller, Jay-Z, and Sean Paul, among others. Storch produced it, while the composition also incorporates an interpolation of “No Fear,” performed by Odetta Y’ard and recorded by Wally Badarou.

The single became one of Beyoncé’s biggest early solo successes. It spent nine weeks at number one on the US Billboard Hot 100 and helped keep Dangerously in Love at the center of the pop and R&B market during 2003.
