Biography
> We all experience pain and loss, and often we become inaudible. My intention for [Lemonade] was to create a body of work that would give a voice to our pain, our struggles, our darkness, and our history. To confront issues that make us uncomfortable.

Born Beyoncé Giselle Knowles on Sept. 4, 1981, in Houston
-
Beyoncé initially rose to prominence as a member of Destiny's Child. The trio scored two No. 1 hits in 1999 with "Bills, Bills, Bills" and "Say My Name" from their Top 5 album The Writing's On The Wall. In 2003, Beyoncé released her debut solo album, Dangerously In Love, which topped the Billboard 200 and spawned the No. 1 hits "Crazy In Love" (a duet with Jay-Z) and "Baby Boy."
-
She won her first three career GRAMMYs with Destiny's Child, including Best R&B Performance By A Duo Or Group for "Survivor." She won five awards as a solo artist at the 46th GRAMMY Awards, including Best Contemporary R&B Album for Dangerously In Love.
-
She made her GRAMMY stage debut with Destiny's Child at the 43rd GRAMMYs in 2001, performing a medley of "Independent Women, Part I" and "Say My Name." Alongside Prince at the 46th GRAMMY Awards in 2004, Beyoncé performed a medley that included his "Purple Rain" and her "Crazy In Love."
-
At the 65th GRAMMY Awards in 2023, Beyoncé made history by becoming the artist with the most GRAMMY wins ever at that time, reaching 32 total GRAMMYs. As of the 2025 GRAMMYs, Beyoncé now holds 35 GRAMMY wins and 99 nominations, making her both the most-awarded and most-nominated artist in GRAMMY history. She surpassed her previous tie with her husband, Jay-Z, who for a time shared the top spot for nominations.
