Bey’s Dangerously In Love is arguably her best album, and of course, her first solo album. A standout track from it was her duet with the late Luther Vandross, called “The Closer I Get To You.” A super soulful rendition of the original song by Roberta Flack and Donny Hathaway, the two shared great chemistry and really put a unique spin on it with their powerful voice.
