Which Beyoncé song features Jay-Z and samples the Chi-Lites?

Beyoncé’s “Crazy in Love” features Jay-Z and samples the Chi-Lites’ “Are You My Woman (Tell Me So).”

The song was released as the lead single from Beyoncé’s 2003 debut album, Dangerously in Love. Its instantly recognizable horn arrangement comes from the Chi-Lites recording, giving the track a strong retro-soul element within a contemporary R&B and hip-hop production.

Jay-Z contributes a rap verse and was also Beyoncé’s collaborator on the song’s writing and performance. “Crazy in Love” became a major international hit and topped the Billboard Hot 100 for eight weeks.

The sample is sometimes confused with the song’s separate writing credits or with other Beyoncé and Jay-Z collaborations, including “Drunk in Love” and “’03 Bonnie & Clyde.” Those tracks also connect the pair musically, but only “Crazy in Love” uses the prominent Chi-Lites sample identified here.
