'If I Were a Boy' was well received by critics, who complimented Beyoncé's tormented and emotive vocal performance and called the song her best work to date. The song's lyrics lament the misunderstandings between the genders and indict the male side of relationships. 'If I Were a Boy' is a pop and R&B introspective ballad which draws influences from folk rock through its instrumentation of which includes acoustic guitars, drums and strings.

A Spanish version of the song, titled ' Si Yo Fuera un Chico', was digitally released in Mexico and Spain. The two songs showcased the contrast between Beyoncé's personality and her aggressive onstage persona, Sasha Fierce. Columbia Records released 'If I Were a Boy' to US radio on October 8, 2008, as a double A-side single alongside ' Single Ladies (Put a Ring on It)' as the lead singles. Jean was upset when she learned that Beyoncé was releasing it as a single, but eventually, they reached an agreement. Inspired by the difficult break-up of a romantic relationship, the song was initially recorded by Jean, whose record company rejected it. Jean and Gad also handled its production alongside Beyoncé. The song gained international attention the same year in a version by the American singer Beyoncé, from her third studio album I Am. ' If I Were a Boy' is a song written by BC Jean and Toby Gad and originally performed by Jean in 2008.
