"Drunk in Love" is a song by American singer Beyoncé, featuring her husband, American rapper Jay-Z. The duo composed the song with the help of Future Hendrix known as Future along with credited production and writing by

female sexuality
, are sung by Beyoncé in a sensual and confident way.

Many music critics called the song a follow-up to Beyoncé's and Jay-Z's song "

57th Grammy Awards, "Drunk in Love" won Best R&B Song and Best R&B Performance
.

The song's music video was directed by Hype Williams and shot in black-and-white in Golden Beach, Florida at a beach front manse. The visual features scenes of the pair singing the song together. "Drunk in Love" was performed by Beyoncé and Jay-Z at the 56th Grammy Awards. It was later added to the set lists of the second European leg of Beyoncé's The Mrs. Carter Show World Tour in 2013 and the pair's joint On the Run Tour in 2014. Numerous remixes and cover versions of the song were made, most notably the official rework by rapper Kanye West. The music video won Best Collaboration and was nominated for Video of the Year at the 2014 MTV Video Music Awards.

Conception and release

Jay-Z is credited as a co-writer and featured artist.

"Drunk in Love" was written by

J-Roc, Dre Moon, Brian Soko and Rasool Ricardo Diaz contributed to the production of the song. Elaborating on the conception of the song, Beyoncé said: "We just kinda had a party. It was so great because it wasn't about any ego... we weren't trying to make a hit record, we were just having fun, and I think you can hear that in the record."[2]

In 2014, rapper Future claimed that he had previously recorded a demo version of the song. He worked together with Detail who persuaded him to record vocals for the track as it would convince Beyoncé more easily to record it. Several days later, Detail informed Future that Beyoncé was in the studio recording "Drunk in Love". However, when the rapper was working on his second studio album Honest, he used the same melody of the demo version on a song called "Good Morning" as Beyoncé still hadn't released her version seven months after he was told that she worked on it. When Beyoncé released her album, the track was scrapped from the track listing of Honest.[4][5]

"Drunk in Love" was subsequently included on Beyoncé's self-titled fifth studio album

hot adult contemporary and rhythmic contemporary radio in the US on December 16, 2013, as the first single from the album.[7][8][9] "Drunk in Love" impacted urban contemporary radio stations on December 17, 2013,[10] serving as one of the two lead singles from Beyoncé. On March 24, 2014, "Drunk in Love" was added to British radio station BBC Radio 1's C-List.[11]

Musically, the song consists of

Vulture found trademark Timbaland synths in the song and further went on to describe its production as "skittering, blaring".[24]

Keeping in with the most prominent theme of Beyoncé, "Drunk in Love" explores

Drake and 2 Chainz.[33][34] The Verge's Trent Wolbe felt that the song featured Animal Collective-esque vocal filtering.[35]

On the

verse of the song is half-rapped by her.[25] Jay-Z later appears to provide his rapped verse as he relates having aggressive sex to Mike Tyson who was convicted of rape in 1992.[36] Tyson also bit off a piece of Evander Holyfield's ear during a boxing match in 1997 which Jay-Z references: "Catch a charge I might / beat the box up like Mike / In '97 I bite."[37] He then compares his relationship with Beyoncé to that of Ike Turner and Tina Turner.[38] He forgoes subtlety as he raps, "Foreplay in a foyer, fucked up my Warhol/ Slid the panties right to the side/ Ain't got the time to take drawers off on sight... your breasteses is my breakfast".[25][27][39] Similarly to Beyoncé, Jay-Z sings about the places they have had sex in their house.[40] During his lines, he raps about "reppin' that Third", a reference to the Third Ward area located in Houston.[41]

In 2014,

New York Civil Rights Law did not apply to it.[43]

Critical reception

The song garnered universal acclaim. Mikael Wood of the

Crazy in Love'".[44] Rob Sheffield of Rolling Stone chose the "sex song" as the album's best one, commenting that it is a "superb duet".[40] Jon Dolan from the same publication also chose it as the album's best further comparing it with "Crazy in Love" with "100 percent more drunkenness".[23] Andrew Hampp of Billboard called the track a "potential smash" as he praised its appeal to R&B radio stations and its "infectious, wailing of 'loooove' on the chorus". He also commended Beyoncé's and Jay-Z's rapped verses.[25] Andrew Barker from Variety wrote in his review of Beyoncé, "a radio-ready pop single [is] buried somewhere within the Jay Z feature 'Drunk In Love,' yet Beyonce and Boots embellish it with enough strange grace notes and recitatives to create a much stranger monster than one might expect".[45] Joey Guerra from the Houston Chronicle stated that Beyoncé was in "a fluid swagger" in "Drunk in Love".[41]

Jody Rosen writing for Vulture described the song as an "appealing" record and one of the best collaborations between the duo throughout their careers. He concluded that "Jay's rap is goofy but not embarrassing."[24] Nick Catucci of Entertainment Weekly termed Beyoncé's rap as "truculent" and noted that "Drunk in Love" is one of the few songs of the album that displays scale-busting.[14] Kitty Empire of The Observer wrote that "Drunk in Love" finds Beyoncé "rapping lasciviously and making eyes at her husband. It's about 100 times better than that description allows for."[46] Julia Leconte from Now praised the singer's "perfect" growling vocals.[22] Chris Kelly of FACT magazine dubbed the song as the "requisite duet with Jay Z (whose Ike Turner-referencing verse caps off a year of cringeworthy efforts)".[47] Pitchfork Media's Carrie Battan felt that the lines in which Beyoncé ad-libbed "surfboard" were "some of the most infectious snippets of pop music in 2013", elaborating "the single word serving as both shorthand for woman-on-top and a neat summation of an entire era of trends in rap cadence".[48] Greg Kot of the Chicago Tribune described the track as a "frisky reverie".[38] Likewise, Evan Rytlewski of The A.V. Club wrote:

The D'Angelo-indebted grind session 'Rocket' and frisky 'Drunk In Love' are similarly sexy, but they're not sexy like a glamour shot or a steamy video. They're sexy like an overeager, pre-shower quickie, or a hushed morning make-out session before the baby wakes up. These are the most unapologetically raunchy songs she's ever sung, and in many ways also the most romantic.[49]

Philip Matusavage of

Philadelphia Media Network writer Dan DeLuca panned "Drunk in Love" as Beyoncé's biggest "misstep" due to Jay-Z's contribution.[53]

Although being praised by media outlets, "Drunk in Love" sparked controversy for its lyrics referencing domestic violence. On the song, Jay-Z rapped the lyrics "I'm Ike, Turner, turn up / Baby no I don't play / Now eat the cake, Anna Mae / I said eat the cake, Anna Mae" which alludes to Tina Turner's abusive relationship with her former husband, Ike Turner.[54][55][56] The lyric specifically refers to a scene from Tina Turner's biopic What's Love Got to Do with It (1993) in which Ike forced Tina to eat cake by pushing a piece of cake in her face. That particular scene was fabricated, but the film is loosely based on Tina Turner's real-life experience with a volatile husband.[55] Rolling Stone's Rob Sheffield described the reference as "tasteless" in his review of the song and The Guardian writer Tshepo Mokoena called the song's lyrics "disturbing" and "distasteful".[40][54] British radio station Bang Radio aired an edited version of the song excluding the lyrics.[57]

In 2014, the writers of Pitchfork placed the song at number 44 on their list of the 200 best songs of the decade so far, with editor Carrie Battan writing, "Someday, it will be heard as a brilliant ruse, a masterpiece of pop theater, or as simply a masterpiece, period."[59] Rolling Stone ranked "Drunk in Love" at number one on its year-end list of the best songs in 2014. The magazine's writers described it as a "future-pop fantasy" and "the sexiest thing on the radio", further praising the singers for making "marriage sound ridiculously hot".[60] By the end of 2019, the same magazine would list Drunk in Love as the 22nd best song of the 2010s,[61] while NME would place it at number 59 on their decade-end countdown.[62]

Music video

Background and synopsis

"[We were] much freer than anything I'd done in the past. We really just tried to trust our instincts, embrace the moment, and keep it fun... We were in Miami for Jay's concert, and it was just the two of us, on the beach, amazing weather, and one outfit! It's beautiful in its simplicity. If you want something to feel real and urgent, you can't overthink it."

Beyoncé talking about the filming of the video for "Drunk in Love"[96]

The video was filmed on August 15, 2013, in Golden Beach, Florida at a beach front manse that Beyoncé rented out for the shoot.[97][98] It was directed by Hype Williams and shot in black-and-white; the clip depicts Beyoncé and Jay-Z "madly in love".[98] The black-and-white shoot was meant to reference the work of fashion photographer Herb Ritts.[99] Talking about the video in an iTunes Radio session, Beyoncé said, "The shoot was extremely effortless and spontaneous and we completely captured the energy of the song."[98] She also went on to say that it was the most organic shoot she had ever done and further added: "I wanted to carry this idea of being in the moment and embracing mistakes and effortlessness into the video. I wish every video was like 'Drunk [in Love]'."[2] The clip was first released on the iTunes Store on the visual album itself on December 13, 2013, which contained a previously filmed music video for every song and was later uploaded to Beyoncé's Vevo channel three days later, on December 16, 2013.[98][100]

The visual is almost six and a half minutes long. As the video begins, waves are seen crashing on a night time beach. Nearly a minute later, Beyoncé appears; she is strolling on a beach at night and she seemingly carries a massive trophy while an eerie music is playing in the background. Sporting a sheer negligee that reveals her bra and panties beneath, she twists her body in the sand. The singer also dances seductively against a backdrop of smoke and mouths the song's lyrics, staring at the camera. Beyoncé is later joined by husband Jay-Z, who is wearing a T-shirt and a backwards baseball cap. He raps with his eyes down holding a glass with alcohol in his hand while Beyoncé mouths the words behind him, smiling. The last seconds of the video show Beyoncé dancing and it concludes with close-up shots of the singer's face.

Reception

On a review of the clip, Kory Glow of Rolling Stone wrote, "The video, as metaphorical as it is, perfectly captures the feeling of the track."

Madonna's visual for "Cherish" (1989).[104] Brent DiCrescenzo of the magazine Time Out also felt that the video for "Cherish" strongly influenced the video for "Drunk in Love".[105]

Jon Dolan from Rolling Stone described the video as the second most

Complex felt that the pair "get wet and wild" in the video further elaborating, "For an album that is rooted in love, marriage, and sex, unleashing a video featuring her and her husband frolicking euphorically on the beach is the best first taste."[109] Slate's Forrest Wickman called the clip one of the simplest on the album and noted, "It's not the album's peak, musically or visually, but unconstrained by heavy choreography... it legitimately looks like they're having fun."[19] Maura Johnston of Spin placed the video at number 5 on the magazine's list of the best music videos in 2013 saying that it was a "worthy addition" to the collaborations between Beyoncé and Jay-Z.[110]

The video was nominated in the categories for Best Female Video and Best R&B Video at the 2014 MTV Video Music Awards Japan.[111][112] It was also nominated for Video of the Year at the 2014 BET Awards.[64] At the 2014 MTV Video Music Awards the video was nominated in the categories for Video of the Year and Best Collaboration, eventually winning the latter.[113][114] At the 2014 Soul Train Music Awards the clip was nominated in the category for Video of the Year.[66]

Live performances

On January 26, 2014, the couple opened the 56th Annual Grammy Awards in Los Angeles, performing the song live together for the first time.[115] The performance opened with Beyoncé sporting wet-look hair in a leotard and a leather basque, sitting on a chair with her back to the audience.[115][116][117] She continued seductively dancing cabaret-style, singing and gyrating on the dark stage surrounded by smoke.[118][119] Jay-Z appeared to rap his verses dressed in a suit and bow tie.[115] The sexually-charged performance ended with a kiss and the two walked off with their arms around each other. Beyoncé's chair dance received comparisons with scenes from the movie Flashdance, the song's music video and the video for "Partition";[118][120][121] VH1's Emily Exton felt that it was one of the best chair dances of all time.[119] The duet was described as "scorching" and "chill inducing" with many critics considering the performance to be a show highlight;[120][122] Lily Harrison of E! added that the pair "set the bar impossibly high".[116] A Rolling Stone editor felt it was "near flawless".[115] Nadeska Alexis writing for MTV News noted that when the singer started singing the first verses of the song, "you could almost taste the aroma of sex appeal in the air".[118] A negative review came from Beverly Beckham of The Boston Globe who felt that the pair failed to showcase love in the lyrics and performance.[123]

The performance sparked criticisms from some parents on social media who believed the performance was "provocative" and "inappropriate" due to its risqué nature; Melissa Henson, a representative of the

DirecTv pre-Super Bowl party.[127] Christopher R. Weingarten of Rolling Stone referred to the pair's chemistry as the highlight of the event and said the performance was "smiles and hugs and laughs, with one of the most famous rappers in the world gladly playing hypeman" in contrast to the Grammy performance.[127] Nekesa Mumbi Moody writing for the Associated Press felt that it was the set's highlight.[128] At the 2014 MTV Video Music Awards on August 25, 2014, Beyoncé performed "Drunk in Love" live during a medley consisting of songs from her self-titled album. The performance featured the singer dressed in a bejeweled bodysuit and a singalong from the audience.[129] She started the performance on a set of steps, with numerous dancers in headstands around her and went to the stage afterwards. Nadeska Alexis from MTV News commented that when the song opened, "the crowd really started to lose their composure".[130] Writers of The Hollywood Reporter described the song's performance as "booty-popping".[129]

The song was added to the set list and performed live during the second European leg of The Mrs. Carter Show World Tour in February and March 2014.[131] For the performance, Beyoncé danced on a chair in a catsuit as kaleidoscope of lights illuminated her.[132][133] Digital Spy's Robert Copsey felt that the track became a stadium sing-along like the other hits performed by the singer.[134] Kitty Empire of The Observer wrote that the singer's ad libs made listeners feel like she "got tipsy and had the hots for her husband".[135] Jay-Z joined her on stage to perform the song together at all six London shows of the leg, as well as at the final tour stop in Lisbon.[136][137] A professionally recorded live performance of the song with Jay-Z from the tour aired on August 4, 2014, on Beyonce: X10, an HBO series documenting renditions of the song performed during The Mrs. Carter Show World Tour. Erin Strecker from Billboard felt that the choreography from the performance was "instantly iconic".[138] Anna Silman of Variety praised the singer's different sparkling costumes and noted that overally, the rendition was "as sultry and showstopping as you'd imagine".[139] "Drunk in Love" was part of the set list of Beyoncé and Jay-Z's co-headlining On the Run Tour (2014). For the performance of the song, Beyoncé performed a chair dance and was accompanied by Jay-Z for his part which contained a short snippet of Kanye West's "On Sight".[140][141] While reviewing the opening concert of the tour, Rebecca Thomas writing for MTV News described the performance of the song as "intoxicating".[142] Beyonce also performed this song on her The Formation World Tour in 2016. In 2018, her and Jay-Z performed the song during their second co-headlining tour, the On the Run II Tour.

In 2023, she performed the song as part of her viral private performance for the opening ceremony of Atlantis, The Royal resort in Dubai, arranging a complex arabesque vocal riff as she ascended on a platform. The riff went viral on TikTok, prompting fans to challenge themselves to recreate it.[143][144]

It was initially included on the opening night setlist of the Renaissance World Tour in Stockholm, along with the famous vocal riff, but was cut along with two other songs, "Thique" and "All Up In Your Mind", for the remainder of the tour. However, on August 14, 2023, Beyoncé returned all three songs to the setlist for the final night of her three-night Atlanta stop at Mercedes-Benz Stadium, surprising fans and prompting speculation whether the songs will remain for the rest of the tour.[145]

In December 2013, American singer Rico Love and American rapper Plies released a remix of "Drunk in Love" in which they sang about their sex experiences.[146] On January 16, 2014, English musician James Blake debuted a remix of the song on BBC Radio 1 using his alter ego Harmonimix considerably altering Beyoncé's voice.[147] Future utilized Auto-Tune on his version of the song, which he released in late January 2014.[148] At BBC Radio 1's Live Lounge, American rapper Angel Haze performed "Drunk in Love", substituting Jay Z's verses with new lines that discuss empowerment and braggadocio.[149] They later released a studio version in April leaving some vocals by Beyoncé from the original; this version was noted for containing more aggression than their live rendition.[150]

It was titled "Drunken Love" and it included unreleased audio elements from the recording of the original song from which several variables of it existed.[3] Pitchfork Media's Carrie Battan described his version as "chopped-up, stretched out, cathedral-ready".[153] On February 14, 2014, American rapper Kanye West, frequent collaborator of Jay-Z, released the official remix of "Drunk in Love", featuring an explicit verse by himself and a slightly modified instrumental produced by Mike Dean. In his lines, West rapped about his wife Kim Kardashian and referenced the video for his own song, "Bound 2" (2013). A day after the release of the remix, Beyoncé uploaded a 30-second clip in which she played a cowgirl corralling horses as West's vocals played in the background.[154] Miriam Coleman of Rolling Stone felt that West's rework was an "even raunchier spin on the already-adult-themed song".[155] The remix version was later included on the track listing of the platinum edition of Beyoncé, released on November 24, 2014.[156] Diplo produced an EDM-influenced remix of the song, which he released on February 15, 2014.[157] Canadian singer The Weeknd and American rapper T.I. both released their respective remixes on the same date; the former's version featured lyrics about drug use and corruption.[158][159] On February 18, 2014, American rapper Cassidy released a song titled "Surfboard", with the tag "Drunk in Love G-Mix", which heavily samples "Drunk in Love".[160] On December 18, 2014, Tiësto released a remix of the song after playing it in DJ sets a few months earlier.[161]
