“Drunk In Love” has emerged as arguably the most popular track off of Beyonce’s hit self-titled album.

The sexy, 808-laced duet with her husband Jay Z has been a staple in the clubs for the past few months.

The Beyhive stans love it, and so do the fellas, but what if the track wasn’t originally meant for Queen Bey?

At last week’s SXSW festival, rapper singer and Auto Tune aficionado Future was hosting a show for Spin, and previewed an unreleased track “Good Morning” that sounds eerily similar to “Drunk In Love.”

“I was recording with this producer by the name of Detail. We were working on ‘Drunk In Love,'” Future said at the concert. “We started working on this other record at the same time, and then once ‘Drunk in Love’ came out it pushed this song to the side. At the same time, it’s one of my favorite songs that didn’t make the album.”

Producer Detail has worked with the likes of Lil Wayne and Drake, and is a respected hitmaker. He also appears as a writer on “Drunk In Love” as well, so it possible that “Good Morning” share the same patterns and hooks. Either way it doesn’t matter because “Good Morning” has plenty of appeal on its own.
