Quote: |
She
is the lead singer and founder of Destiny's Child. |
|
She
began her career at the age of 7 when she auditioned for
a role in a child singing group.
The group was made up of her, Latavia Roberson, Beyonce's
cousin, Kelly Rowland and LeToya
Luckett. Her musical influences include, The Supremes,
Jackson 5. She and the other members of
her group started off small, doing local events but got
their break when performing on Star
Search. Their young energy and sound was a revelation
for Hip Hop/ R&B music during the 90's.
Soon after
that Destiny's Child got it's formal name and started
doing bigger gigs and were the
opening act for other groups like SWV, Dru Hill and
Immature. They released their self titled
album in 1998 and Beyonce was the cornerstone in the
group. Working out most of the lyrics and
sound for the new group. She was the dominent lead singer
in the group and no one could dispute.

Beyonce
was responsible for most of the lyrics for hit songs,
NO, NO, NO, BILLS, BILLS, BILLs
and many of their other top 10 hits. In March of 2000
LeToya and Latavia left Destiny's Child
because Beyonce and Matthew Knowles were causing them
distress and not giving them the freedom
to develop as artists on their own and contribute. Two
replacements, Michelle Williams and Farrah
Franklin were hired to take their place and keep the band
going.
Beyonce got
her first big film break in the Austin Powers: In Goldmember.
Besides that her recent
song, Survivor with Destiny's Child has cemented her
superstardom. She will most likely be
appearing in other Hollywood productions and will continue
to perform her music. We wish all
the best for her.
