"If I
Were a Boy" is a music performed by American singer and songwriter Beyoncé
from her 3-d studio album I Am... Sasha Fierce (2008). It was composer by BC
Jean and Toby Gad, who also
handled its production alongside Beyoncé. Inspired
by the difficult break-up of a romantic relationship, the single was initially
recorded by Jean, whose record company rejected it. Beyoncé then recorded her
own version. Jean was upset when she learned that Beyoncé was releasing it as a
son, but eventually they reached an agreement. "If I Were a Boy" was
released by Columbia Records on October 12, 2008, as the album's lead single
alongside "Single Ladies (Put a Ring on It)". The two songs showcased
the contrast between Beyoncé's personality and her aggressive onstage persona,
Sasha Fierce. A Spanish version of the song, titled "Si Yo Fuera un
Chico", was digitally released in Mexico and Spain.
