Which Beyoncé song features rapper Jay-Z and opens with a famous horn riff?

“Crazy in Love” is the Beyoncé song featuring Jay-Z that opens with its famous horn riff.

Released in 2003, “Crazy in Love” was the lead single from Beyoncé’s debut solo album, Dangerously in Love. The song combines Beyoncé’s R&B vocals with a prominent sampled horn line derived from “Are You My Woman (Tell Me So)” by the Chi-Lites.

Jay-Z appears as a featured rapper, and the recording became the couple’s first major musical collaboration. The song reached number one on the Billboard Hot 100 and topped charts in several other countries. Its music video was directed by Jake Nava and includes choreography that became closely associated with the track.

The song is often confused with “Drunk in Love,” another Beyoncé and Jay-Z duet from 2013. “Crazy in Love” is the earlier recording and the one built around the instantly recognizable horn sample.
