What was the name of Beyoncé’s girl group before her solo career?

The story behind the answer

Beyoncé’s girl group before her solo career was Destiny’s Child.

The group formed in Houston in the early 1990s under an earlier name, Girl’s Tyme. After lineup changes and a record deal, it became Destiny’s Child and signed with Columbia Records. Its early members included Beyoncé Knowles, Kelly Rowland, LaTavia Roberson, and LeToya Luckett.

Destiny’s Child became one of the best-selling female groups in music history. Songs such as “Say My Name,” “Survivor,” and “Bootylicious” helped establish the group internationally.

The lineup changed several times, and the final trio consisted of Beyoncé, Kelly Rowland, and Michelle Williams. The group went on hiatus in 2006, after which Beyoncé continued her solo career while remaining associated with the group’s legacy.
