“Crazy in Love” is the Beyoncé song that won the Grammy Award for Best R&B Song.
Released in 2003 as the lead single from Dangerously in Love, “Crazy in Love” features rapper Jay-Z. The track was built around a prominent horn sample from the Chi-Lites’ 1970 song “Are You My Woman (Tell Me So),” helping give it an instantly recognizable opening.
The song topped the Billboard Hot 100 and became Beyoncé’s first number-one single as a solo lead artist in the United States. Its energetic production, vocal performance, and choreography helped establish the sound and visual confidence of her early solo era.
At the 46th Annual Grammy Awards in 2004, “Crazy in Love” won Best R&B Song and Best Rap/Sung Collaboration. It is sometimes mislabeled as a Destiny’s Child recording, but the credited lead artist is Beyoncé, with Jay-Z as the featured performer.
