{"title":"Beyoncé","description":"\u003cp\u003eA flexible powerhouse singer, songwriter, producer, and dancer, Beyoncé is a multifaceted global superstar by any measure. The Houstonian rose to fame in the late '90s as the central member of pop-R\u0026amp;B group Destiny's Child. The following decade, she started her ongoing streak of number one solo studio albums with Dangerously in Love (2003), the source of her first number one pop single, the ecstatic \"Crazy in Love.\" Nearly omnipresent hits such as the elegantly dismissive \"Irreplaceable\" (2006) and boisterous \"Single Ladies (Put a Ring on It)\" (2008), combined with sold-out world tours and Grammy Awards, all heightened Beyoncé's profile in the 2000s. Billboard named her female artist of the decade, while the RIAA acknowledged that, with 64 gold and platinum certifications, she was its top-selling artist. Beyoncé continued to diversify in the 2010s with the visual albums Beyoncé (2013) and Lemonade (2016), the latter of which she directed, followed by the Jay-Z collaboration Everything Is Love (2018) and her work on the remake of The Lion King (2019). The latter project was expanded with the soundtrack The Lion King: The Gift, executive-produced by Beyoncé, who also wrote and directed the related musical film Black Is King (2020). Beyoncé has since become the most awarded artist in Grammy history with Renaissance (2022), a cosmopolitan dancefloor celebration tying together gospel, disco, house, bounce, and Afrobeats with nods to ballroom culture and further proud affirmations of the singer's Southern roots.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBorn in Houston, Beyoncé Giselle Knowles began performing at age seven, winning over 30 local competitions for her dancing and vocal abilities. She joined her cousin Kelly Rowland and classmates LaTavia Roberson and LeToya Luckett in forming an adolescent vocal group. Mathew Knowles, Beyoncé's father and Rowland's legal guardian, signed on to be the girls' manager, eventually quitting his full-time job to focus on their efforts. This situation would ultimately lead to the creation of one of the most popular female R\u0026amp;B groups of all time: Destiny's Child.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDestiny's Child gained momentum throughout the '90s. They appeared on Star Search in 1992 (under the name Girls Tyme) and weathered several lineup changes before signing to Columbia in 1997. Four studio albums later, the group had officially become the best-selling female group of all time, with such smash hits as \"Jumpin' Jumpin',\" \"Bills, Bills, Bills,\" \"Say My Name,\" and \"Survivor\" bolstering the young women's momentum despite lawsuits from former members Roberson and Luckett. In 2001, Beyoncé, Rowland, and replacement member Michelle Williams allowed themselves a break from the group to pursue individual solo careers. Before landing several movie roles, Beyoncé became the first African-American female artist and second woman ever to win the annual ASCAP Pop Songwriter of the Year Award. An appearance in the MTV drama Carmen: A Hip Hopera quickly followed, but it was her role as Foxxy Cleopatra in 2002's Austin Powers in Goldmember that established her as a true Hollywood star.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhile \"Work It Out,\" her inclusion on the movie's soundtrack failed to chart in the U.S., it was a Top Ten hit in the U.K. Beyoncé's full-length solo debut, 2003's Dangerously in Love, reached multi-platinum status. Featuring collaborations with Sean Paul, Missy Elliott, OutKast's Big Boi, and romantic interest Jay-Z, the album spawned a total of four Top Ten singles and garnered the singer five Grammys. Destiny's Child reconvened the following year to release Destiny Fulfilled; upon completing the resulting tour, the group issued one final album, a greatest-hits compilation entitled #1's, and subsequently disbanded. Beyoncé turned her full attention to her burgeoning solo career. She released B'day in September 2006 and, three months later, turned in an award-winning performance for the movie musical Dreamgirls. The singer then embarked on the Beyoncé Experience concert tour and released a live DVD in November 2007.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe following year proved to be another busy one as Beyoncé landed the role of Etta James in Cadillac Records, a musical biopic that explored the heyday of Chicago's Chess label. Shooting commenced in February 2008, with Beyoncé also serving as co-executive producer. One month before the film's December release, the singer released her third studio album, I Am...Sasha Fierce. The double-disc effort emphasized her two distinct personalities, allowing Beyoncé to explore both mainstream sounds and traditional R\u0026amp;B. Some live releases followed. Released in 2009, I Am...Yours, a CD\/DVD set, documented an August 2009 performance at Wynn Las Vegas, while 2010's I Am...World Tour, available in separate audio and video formats, was recorded at London's significantly larger O2 Arena (a few months after the Vegas program). She followed ten Grammy nominations with 2011's 4, which debuted at the top of the Billboard 200. One of her most energetic and empowering tracks, \"Run the World (Girls),\" was issued as the lead single, while \"Love on Top\" eventually won a Grammy for Best Traditional R\u0026amp;B Performance.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eGiving birth to Blue Ivy Carter in January 2012 didn't slow her down. Within a few months, she was performing in Atlantic City, and she later appeared at President Barack Obama's second inauguration. Joined by Michelle Williams and Kelly Rowland, she headlined the Super Bowl XLVII halftime show. Life Is But a Dream, a documentary, first aired on HBO in February 2013, and was followed by appearances on albums by Rowland, the-Dream, and Jay-Z. New material, such as \"Bow Down\" and \"Standing on the Sun,\" trickled out without proper releases. Then, on December 13 -- with no preceding announcement -- Beyoncé released a self-titled visual album (a full-length studio recording with an accompanying video for each song). Her husband and daughter, along with Drake, Frank Ocean, and writer Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie (via a sampled TED talk), made guest appearances. Beyoncé, assisted by the likes of Hit-Boy, Pharrell, Timbaland, Justin Timberlake, and Miguel, co-wrote and co-produced the majority of the album's material. Like Beyoncé's four previous solo albums, it went to number one, and quickly went platinum in the U.S. Three months after she completed the Mrs. Carter Show world tour, she and Jay-Z embarked on the On the Run Tour, which reached the U.S., Canada, and France from June through September 2014. The following February, she was nominated for six Grammy Awards and won three, including Best R\u0026amp;B Song and Best R\u0026amp;B Performance, both for \"Drunk in Love.\" Although she didn't release any new material in 2015, she co-wrote and appeared on Naughty Boy's Top Five U.K. pop hit \"Runnin' (Lose It All),\" and contributed vocals to Coldplay's \"Hymn for the Weekend.\"\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn February 2016, a new single, \"Formation,\" and its trenchant accompanying video, were released just before her Super Bowl 50 half-time performance. That April, another striking visual album, Lemonade, premiered on HBO, and its audio was subsequently available for streaming and download. Some of the album's specific, forthright lyrics fueled speculation about the status of Beyoncé and Jay-Z's relationship. Kendrick Lamar, Jack White, James Blake, and the Weeknd appeared as featured artists, while Just Blaze, Mike Dean, and Diplo were among the co-producers. The Formation World Tour began days later, just before the album became her sixth consecutive number one studio album. After wrapping that half-year trek, Coachella announced that Beyoncé would be headlining the festival's 2017 installment. While that performance was eventually canceled due to the birth of her twins, she would make a triumphant return to the desert stage a year later. Backed by a pyramid constructed with bleachers and over two-hundred backing performers, Beyoncé became the first Black female to headline the festival, closing both weekends of Coachella 2018 with historic performances that highlighted Black culture and featured guest appearances by Jay-Z, Solange, and a reunited Destiny's Child.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMonths later in June 2018, while Beyoncé and Jay-Z's co-headlining On the Run II tour was underway, the couple released Everything Is Love, a collaborative full-length credited to the Carters. Led by \"Apeshit,\" a single featuring input from Pharrell Williams, Quavo, and Offset, the album narrowly missed the top spot on the Billboard 200. Wrapping at the end of the year, On the Run II was the third-highest grossing tour of 2018.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTrue to form, Beyoncé issued a surprise live album, the Grammy-winning Homecoming, in April 2019. Paired with a film of the same title, the set documented her 2018 Coachella performance and added a cover of Maze's \"Before I Let Go.\" Later that year, she not only starred as Nala in the photorealistic remake of The Lion King, but curated the film's accompanying soundtrack, The Lion King: The Gift. Featuring a wealth of African artists collaborating with the likes of co-star Donald Glover, Jay-Z, Pharrell Williams, Kendrick Lamar, and Tierra Whack, the album also included her single \"Spirit,\" which went on to receive both Grammy and Oscar nominations. Beyoncé returned to the top of the Hot 100 in May 2020 as a featured artist on Megan Thee Stallion's \"Savage Remix.\" Only two months later, she was behind the musical film Black Is King, also her third visual album. She took four awards from the subsequent Grammy ceremony: Best R\u0026amp;B Performance (for the Juneteenth charity single \"Black Parade\"), Best Rap Song and Best Rap Performance (both for \"Savage\"), and Best Music Video (\"Brown Skin Girl\"). Another soundtrack song, \"Be Alive,\" arrived in May 2021 as part of the tennis biopic King Richard.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn June 2022, Beyoncé released \"Break My Soul,\" a house track made with \"Single Ladies (Put a Ring on It)\" collaborators the-Dream and Tricky Stewart, as the first single off her seventh studio album. The song reached the Top 20 of the Hot 100 before the late-July arrival of its parent release, Renaissance. A vibrant and uptempo collection inspired in part by post-'70s Black and queer dance music, Renaissance debuted at number one and in early 2023 earned Beyoncé four more Grammy Awards, making her the most awarded artist in the organization's history. Following the triumphant Renaissance World Tour, she released its accompanying documentary concert movie Renaissance: A Film by Beyoncé, which she wrote, directed, and produced. A new track, \"My House,\" was released in conjunction.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBeyoncé's next era was unveiled in February 2024 during Super Bowl LVIII in the form of singles \"Texas Hold 'Em\" and \"16 Carriages,\" from the country-tinged Act II of her proposed album trilogy. ~ TiVo Staff, Rov\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c!----\u003e","products":[{"product_id":"beyonce-homecoming-the-live-album-4-lps-in-a-slipcase-jacket-with-a-52-page-insert-booklet","title":"HOMECOMING: THE LIVE ALBUM (4 LPs, in a slipcase jacket, with a 52 page insert booklet)","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003cspan style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"\u003ePRODUCT DESCRIPTION\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e:\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eHOMECOMING: THE LIVE ALBUM\u003c\/i\u003e is a four LP set of Beyoncé’s historic headlining Coachella performance on two weekends in April 2018.

(2 LP)","description":"Beyonce had little to prove on her second solo outing, B'DAY, having already demonstrated her taste, (solo) vocal prowess, and sparkling star quality on her first post-Destiny's Child release in 2003. Nevertheless, the singer and her crack team of producers and collaborators (R\u0026amp;B's finest, including the Neptunes, Swizz Beats, and Rich Harrison) have come up with a collection that's at least equal to her previous triumphs, and that shows off an almost angry intensity only hinted at on earlier releases.\r\nThe club hit \"Deja Vu,\" with an extended rap from boyfriend\/producer Jay-Z, boasts an addictive bass line that contrasts dramatically with Beyonce's emotive upper register.

Nevertheless, the singer and her crack team of producers and collaborators (R\u0026amp;B's finest, including the Neptunes, Swizz Beats, and Rich Harrison) have come up with a collection that's at least equal to her previous triumphs, and that shows off an almost angry intensity only hinted at on earlier releases.

Two months and a couple weeks later, it appeared as a culturally seismic visual album. Loaded with layers of meaning and references, and experienced en masse through its televised premiere, Lemonade honored black sisterhood with the presence of Warsan Shire, Serena Williams, and the mothers of Trayvon Martin, Michael Brown, and Eric Garner. Subsequently given audio-only release, its title comes from a popular proverb given extra personal relevance by Beyonc?'s grandmother-in-law, whose citation is heard here during a crucial moment in the sequence. Mrs. Knowles-Carter indeed turns her own lemons into Lemonade. She uses the platform to demand contrition from her adulterous partner, assert her excellence, reflect upon the bonds with the men in her life, and their relationships with other women, and wonders if her trust can be earned back. The cathartic and wounded moments here resonate in a manner matched by few, if any, of Beyonc?'s contemporaries. She sometimes eclipses herself in terms of raw emotion, as on the throttling Jack White encounter \"Don't Hurt Yourself.\" At the low-volume end, there's more power in the few seconds she chokes back tears while singing \"Come back\" -- timed with the backing vocal in Isaac Hayes' version of \"Walk on By\" -- than there is in most contemporary ballads. Romantic conflict is nothing new for her, but there is a degree of concentration and specificity, and an apparent disregard for appealing to commercial radio that makes Lemonade a distinct addition to her catalog. (Another distinguishing factor is the length of credits which, due to a vast assortment of collaborators and samples, exceeds that of the self-titled album.) Lemonade can also be heard as the dark flipside of Beyonc?. When \"Dishes smashed on the counter\" is bleakly observed, just before \"Pictures snatched out the frame\/Bitch, I scratched out your name and face\" is delivered with seething wrath, it's hard to not flash back to \"Drunk in Love,\" in which the presumably same couple were revelrous in the same room. After the first three-quarters play out in compelling if somewhat erratic fashion, Lemonade closes with a torrid stretch. \"Freedom\" is a marching anthem of resilience and preservation, produced by Just Blaze with a glowing guest verse from Kendrick Lamar. The loved-up \"All Night\" is a tangle of emotions and hints at reconciliation, facilitated by the horns from OutKast's \"SpottieOttieDopaliscious.\" And then, at last, there's the strutting \"Formation,\" simultaneously a tack-on and an ideal finale, where Beyonc? delights in her blackness, femininity, and Southern origin with supreme wordplay. ~ Andy Kellman\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGenre: Pop\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRSD Date: n\/a\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFormat: Vinyl\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eReleased: 09\/15\/2017\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBest Sellers: Top Seller\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Beyonce","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43699002671337,"sku":"YY8WWK-0NOU-00","price":40.98,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0654\/3523\/8633\/files\/Beyonce-LEMONADE_arnIq.jpg?v=1740624419"},{"product_id":"beyonce-bday-deluxe-edition-ger","title":"B'Day-Deluxe Edition (Ger)","description":"\u003cp\u003eB'Day-Deluxe Edition (Ger) is a Music CDs from Beyonce\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGenre: Pop\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFormat: CD\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eReleased: 03\/17\/2009\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Beyonce","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43699003031785,"sku":"FXPBRN-UK05-00","price":18.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0654\/3523\/8633\/files\/Beyonce-BDay-Deluxe-Edition-Ger_l4pvT_08aeee06-8b63-437a-910d-29b53732efcb.jpg?v=1758858808"},{"product_id":"beyonce-beyonce-platinum-edition-explicit-ver","title":"BEYONCE [PLATINUM EDITION]- EXPLICIT VER","description":"\u003cp\u003eBeyonc? wasn't exactly quiet during the first 11 months of 2013 -- new songs trickled out, and she appeared on albums by from the-Dream, Kelly Rowland, and husband Jay-Z -- but the December 13 release of her fifth album was a surprise.

On “YA YA,” Beyoncé expands the scope to rock ’n’ roll at its most red-blooded and fundamental, playing the parts of both Ike and Tina as she interpolates The Beach Boys and slips in a slick Playboi Carti reference, yowling: “My family lived and died in America\/Good ol’ USA\/Whole lotta red in that white and blue\/History can’t be erased.” A Patsy Cline standard goes Jersey club mode on “SWEET ★ HONEY ★ BUCKIIN’,” with a verse from the similarly genre-flouting Shaboozey and a quick note regarding RENAISSANCE‘s Grammy fortunes: “AOTY I ain’t win\/I ain’t stuntin’ ’bout them\/Take that shit on the chin\/Come back and fuck up the pen.” \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size:12px;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-family:Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;\"\u003eWho but Beyoncé could make a crash course in American music history feel like the party of the year?

RENAISSANCE’s euphorically nasty house bounce returns, albeit with more banjo, on “RIIVERDANCE,” where “II HANDS II HEAVEN” floats on clouds of ’90s electronica for an ode to alternately riding wild horses and 24-inch spinners on candy paint. (Houston, Texas, baby!) There are do-si-do ditties, murder ballads, daddy issues, whiskey kisses, hungover happy hours, cornbread and grits, Beatles covers, smoke breaks, and, on “DAUGHTER,” what may or may not be a wink in the direction of the artist who won AOTY instead.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size:12px;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-family:Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;\"\u003eThere’s also a Dolly-approved Beyoncification of “Jolene,” to whom the protagonist is neither saying please nor begging on the matter of taking her man.

She was the first Black woman to perform at the Grand Ole Opry, but her attempt to move from soul and R\u0026amp;B into the realm of country in the 1960s was met with racist resistance—everything from heckling to outright blackballing. Beyoncé knows the feeling, as she explained in an uncharacteristically vulnerable Instagram post revealing that her eighth studio album was inspired by a deep dive into the history of Black country music following an experience where she felt similarly unwelcome. COWBOY CARTER is a sprawling 80-minute tribute not only to those pioneering artists and their outlaw spirit, but to the very futility of reducing music to a single identifying word.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size:12px;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-family:Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;\"\u003eAnother key quote from that post: “This ain’t a country album.

On “AMERIICAN REQUIEM,” in a voice deep and earthy as Texas red dirt, the Houston native sings, “Used to say I spoke too country\/And then the rejection came, said I wasn’t country enough.” She nods again, as she’s done before on songs like “Formation,” to her family ties to Alabama moonshiners and Louisiana Creoles. “If that ain’t country,” she wonders, “tell me what is.”\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size:12px;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-family:Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;\"\u003eWith subtlety and swagger, she contextualizes country as an offshoot of the Black American musical canon, a storytelling mode springing from and evolving alongside gospel and blues.
