Transcript of Music artist background
Beyoncé originally started out in a girl group called Destiny’s Child with Survivor, Independent woman, Say my name etc.
They were managed by Matthew Knowles which was Beyoncé's dad who was a successful music producer.
They then signed a record deal with Columbia Records in 1997 and their first big hit song was featured on the Men In Black soundtrack.
They became a hit from the end of the 1990’s and then were a hit right throughout until 2005 when they eventually split wanting to pursue solo careers.

Beyoncé's Album covers
Beyoncé's album covers are all
headshots or mid-shots of her in
different settings, the majority of
them are staged in a studio with a plain
background with beyonce being the main attraction of
the cover.
The opening scene of the music video is Beyoncé on a horse in a derelict area where there is rubbish thrown about. There then is a long shot showing the contrast in colours showing the dark black of the horse and the purity of Beyoncé in all white and white is represented as almost angelic and God-like showing superiority. It flips between Beyoncé on a horse, Police riots running about and Beyoncé being on top of a car as if she is leading the riots. She shows the superiority of the girls by showing the Police men running around in a panic with The girls stood in position ready for the police to come with the weapons and lions as protection fitting the theme of the song. As the police arrive Beyoncé is central of the girls in lots of gold headwear showing she is the leader of the riot and then the music comes in which she is supported by the girls behind her with the lyrics in the song and the stance.
