Which group launched Beyoncé’s professional singing career?

Destiny’s Child launched Beyoncé’s professional singing career.

The Houston-founded group began under the name Girl’s Tyme and later became Destiny’s Child. Beyoncé performed with the group alongside childhood friend Kelly Rowland, and the lineup changed several times before settling into the highly successful trio of Beyoncé, Kelly Rowland, and Michelle Williams.

Destiny’s Child became one of the best-selling female groups in music history. Their major singles included “Say My Name,” “Survivor,” and “Bootylicious,” while albums such as The Writing’s on the Wall and Survivor established the group internationally. Beyoncé’s solo success came after this period, but Destiny’s Child supplied the key recording, touring, and television experience that shaped her career. It is distinct from later solo projects and from Girl’s Tyme, the earlier group name.
