"BEYONCE KNOWLES"Knowles' music is generally contemporary R&B, but she also incorporates pop, funk, hip hop, and soul genres into her work. While she almost exclusively releases English songs, Knowles did record several Spanish records for the re-release of
B'Day. Destiny's Child had already recorded a Spanish song and received favorable responses from their Latin fans. Her discography, as a solo artist, began in 2003 and includes three studio albums, twenty singles as a lead artist, ten as a featured artist, ten soundtrack and promotional singles, two live albums, one extended play and eight video albums. In June 2003, during the hiatus of Destiny's Child, Knowles released her debut solo album,
Dangerously in Love, which became one of the most successful albums of that year, and signaled her viability as a solo artist. The album was a commercial and critical success, spawning the worldwide hits "Crazy in Love", "Baby Boy", "Me, Myself & I" and "Naughty Girl". Knowles became the first female artist (and the fifth artist ever) to top both the singles—with "Crazy in Love"— and albums chart simultaneously in the United States and the United Kingdom, following The Beatles,
Simon and Garfunkel, Rod Stewart, and Men at Work. Beyoncé is currently the only artist in history to have all her studio albums win the Grammy Award for Best Contemporary R&B Album, and debut at the number one spot on the Billboard 200 throughout her solo music career.
