In fact, Beyonce did not write her big hit "Crazy in Love," or even conceive of it. "Crazy in Love" — its horns, percussion, chief melody and overall "feel" — was written by the late and very great Eugene Record of the Chi-Lites (he died this summer). The group recorded and released it in 1969 as "Are You My Woman (Tell Me So)."
The article continues dealing with many examples of how these "musicians" don't write much except probably their silly lyrics. I have little respect for these sampler types especially when they claim so much more about the song writing.
