Beyoncé

Beyoncé Giselle Knowles-Carter, best known under the name of Beyonce, is an American singer of R&B, pop, soul, hip hop. She was born on 4 September 1981. She is married to Jay-Z. They have one child, whose name is Blue Ivy Carter. To date she has sold more than 160  million disks. Before starting her solo career, she was part of a group: “Destiny’s Child”. She released her first solo album, and became the best-selling album of the year. Then she released her second solo album in 2006 and her third solo album in 2008. This has enabled her to beat the record for Grammy Award won by a female artist in a single ceremony.

 She began a career of actress in 2001. Moreover Beyoncé and her mother Tina have launched their own fashion brand online in 2004: “House of Deréon”.

She is the most powerful and  influential  person of the world of music just behind Lady Gaga.

She released a new album entitled “Eponyme”, it’s composed of fourteen songs. My favorite song is “Drunk in love”, she released this song with her husband.

My opinion:

I like this singer because she sings well and she has style.  In the album there is a good variety of different styles, the songs vary between Alt-Urban and Indie-Pop including the beautiful, futuristic, retro and contemporary sounds. We discover a quiet mature Beyonce, who seems more willing to do vocal experimentation than to demonstrate her capabilities.

Question:

What has Beyoncé created with her mother?

What is the name of her new album?
