Which girl group included Beyoncé as a lead singer before her solo career?

Destiny’s Child was the girl group in which Beyoncé became a lead singer before her solo career.

The group formed in Houston in the 1990s and initially performed under other names before becoming Destiny’s Child. Its best-known lineup consisted of Beyoncé Knowles, Kelly Rowland, and Michelle Williams. The trio became one of the most successful female groups in popular music.

Destiny’s Child released hit songs such as “Say My Name,” “Survivor,” and “Bootylicious.” Beyoncé’s visibility as a vocalist and songwriter within the group helped prepare audiences for her later solo work.

Several members came and went during the group’s early years, which can cause confusion about the classic lineup. LeToya Luckett and LaTavia Roberson were original members, while Farrah Franklin was briefly part of the group. Destiny’s Child officially disbanded in 2006 after a farewell period.
