Which former girl group did Beyoncé belong to before her solo career?

The story behind the answer

Beyoncé belonged to Destiny’s Child before beginning her solo career.

Destiny’s Child formed in Houston in the 1990s and became one of the best-selling female groups in music history. The group’s best-known final lineup consisted of Beyoncé, Kelly Rowland, and Michelle Williams.

The group’s major hits included “Say My Name,” “Survivor,” and “Bootylicious.” Their music combined contemporary R&B with pop songwriting and themes of independence and self-respect.

Destiny’s Child announced a temporary hiatus in 2001, and the members later pursued individual projects. Beyoncé’s first solo album, Dangerously in Love, arrived in 2003, while Destiny’s Child reunited for selected performances afterward.
