Which song was the lead single from Beyoncé’s debut album Dangerously in Love?

“Crazy in Love” was the lead single from Beyoncé’s debut album Dangerously in Love.

Released in 2003, the song features rapper Jay-Z and was produced by Rich Harrison and Beyoncé. Its prominent horn sample came from the Chi-Lites recording “Are You My Woman (Tell Me So),” giving the track its instantly recognizable opening figure.

The single reached number one in the United States and the United Kingdom. Its music video showed Beyoncé performing with dancers in a series of highly stylized settings, helping define the visual identity of her early solo career.

“Crazy in Love” is sometimes confused with other Dangerously in Love singles, especially “Baby Boy,” which features Sean Paul. “Baby Boy” was also a major hit, but “Crazy in Love” was the album’s lead single and opening solo statement.
