Which Beyoncé single features rapper Jay-Z and begins with a famous horn riff?

Beyoncé’s single “Crazy in Love” features rapper Jay-Z and opens with a distinctive horn riff.

Released in 2003, the song served as the lead single from Beyoncé’s debut solo album, Dangerously in Love. The production was created by Rich Harrison, who built the prominent brass hook from a sample of “Are You My Woman (Tell Me So)” by the Chi-Lites. Jay-Z added a rap verse, making the track a high-profile collaboration between the two artists.

The song reached number one in several countries and became one of Beyoncé’s signature recordings. Its energetic arrangement, vocal performance, and dance-focused music video helped introduce her solo era with immediate impact. It also earned Grammy Awards for Best R&B Song and Best Rap/Sung Collaboration.

“Drunk in Love” is another Beyoncé and Jay-Z collaboration, but it appeared much later on the 2013 album Beyoncé. The two titles are therefore often mixed up by casual listeners.
