Blender magazine placed the song at number thirty-seven on its list of “The 100 Best Songs of 2004”. “You Don’t Know My Name” was sampled on Lil Wayne’s 2008 song “Comfortable” featuring Babyface, also produced by West. The single became the first offering from Alicia’s sophomore album “The Diary of Alicia Keys” and would go on to became Keys’ third top ten hit in the United States, peaking at number three on the Billboard Hot 100, as well as topping the Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs for eight consecutive weeks, her first Top 10 single in both charts since 2002’s “A Woman’s Worth”.Īdditionally, the song won a Grammy Award for Best R&B Song in 2005 and a Soul Train Music Award for Best R&B/Soul Single, Female in 2004. That song was “ You Don’t Know My Name” and instantly I fell in love with it.
