Which rapper did singer Beyoncé marry in 2008?

Singer Beyoncé married rapper Jay-Z in 2008. The couple reportedly held a private wedding ceremony on April 4, 2008, after years of working together and dating. Their relationship became one of popular music’s most prominent partnerships.

Beyoncé and Jay-Z first collaborated on the song “03 Bonnie & Clyde” in 2002. They later recorded several major hits together, including “Crazy in Love,” “Déjà Vu,” and “Drunk in Love.” Their marriage has also influenced their joint artistic projects, such as the 2018 album Everything Is Love.

The couple have three children: daughter Blue Ivy, born in 2012, and twins Rumi and Sir, born in 2017. A common mix-up is confusing their wedding year with the year they first began dating, which was several years earlier.
