Which group included Beyoncé before her solo career became internationally successful?

The story behind the answer

Beyoncé was a member of Destiny’s Child before her solo career became internationally successful.

The group originated in Houston in the 1990s and initially performed under other names, including Girl’s Tyme. 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 scored major hits such as “Say My Name,” “Survivor,” and “Bootylicious.” The group’s album The Writing’s on the Wall helped establish its commercial profile, while Survivor became a defining release of the early 2000s.

Destiny’s Child officially disbanded in 2006 after a farewell period. Beyoncé’s time in the group provided extensive experience in vocal harmonies, choreography, songwriting, recording, and live performance before her solo breakthrough.
