Which Beyoncé song includes the famous “Single Ladies” chorus?

The story behind the answer

“Single Ladies (Put a Ring on It)” is the Beyoncé song built around the famous “Single Ladies” chorus.

The song was released in 2008 as a single from Beyoncé’s third studio album, I Am... Sasha Fierce. Its upbeat production, repeated hook, and sharp choreography made it one of her signature pop performances.

The black-and-white music video was directed by Jake Nava and featured Beyoncé with dancers performing choreography created by Frank Gatson Jr. and JaQuel Knight. The video’s single-take visual style helped make its dance widely recognizable.

The song won three Grammy Awards in 2010, including Song of the Year, Best Female R&B Vocal Performance, and Best R&B Song. People often use “Single Ladies” as shorthand, but the full official title includes “(Put a Ring on It).
