Drop that mic, Beyonce and Jay Z just killed it on the Grammys stage.

The duo opened the 56th Annual Grammy Awards Sunday night with their song Drunk in Love, off of Beyonce's latest eponymous album. The performance was sexy, to say the least.

Beyonce and Jay Z each have 17 Grammys to their names. Jay Z is nominated for nine Grammys this year for his album, including Best Rap Album.

Beyonce's "visual album" — which generated major headlines for being released without any warning or promotional marketing in December — was not eligible for the 2014 Grammys because it was released after the September cut-off date.

Good luck to the rest of the performers tonight — it's hard to top the King and Queen.
