What was the name of the girl group that launched Beyoncé’s career?

The story behind the answer

Destiny’s Child was the girl group that launched Beyoncé’s recording career.

The group formed in Houston in the 1990s and originally included Beyoncé Knowles, Kelly Rowland, LaTavia Roberson, and LeToya Luckett. After lineup changes, the best-known final trio consisted of Beyoncé, Rowland, and Michelle Williams.

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 before Beyoncé began her solo career. The group announced a hiatus in 2002 and formally disbanded in 2006, though its members have reunited for occasional performances.
