"I Need a Man" is the debut single by Grace Jones, released in 1975 through Beam Junction.

It was re-released in 1977, and reached number 83 on the US Billboard Hot 100 and topped the US Dance Club Songs chart.

The track was later re-mixed and released in the U.S. on the minor disco label Beam Junction before Jones signed with Island Records and included it on her 1977 debut album Portfolio.

"I Need a Man" then became a modest hit, reaching number 1 spot on the Billboard dance chart.

The music video for the song was made using the chroma key technique and presents Jones wearing a white, knee-length plain dress, dancing to the track.
