In honor of Beyonc&eacute;'s latest album, Renaissance, L'OFFICIEL takes a look back at every era of her career.&nbsp;

Today, <a href="https://www.lofficielusa.com/pop-culture/beyonce-jay-z-net-worth" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Beyonc&eacute;</a> released her seventh studio album, <a href="https://www.lofficielusa.com/music/everything-we-know-about-beyonce-new-album-renaissance" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Renaissance</a>. Beyonc&eacute;'s career has spanned over a decade. From her time in <a href="https://www.lofficielusa.com/music/girl-groups-throughout-history-tlc-destinys-child" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Destiny's Child</a> to her movie ventures and even starting a line of <a href="https://www.lofficielusa.com/fashion/adidas-ivy-park-fifth-collection-halls-of-ivy-beyonce" target="_blank" rel="noopener">athleisure clothing</a>, Beyonc&eacute; can do it all. But there's no doubt where she shines best is her music career. After all, she is the most nominated singer and female artist in <a href="https://www.lofficielusa.com/beauty/best-beauty-looks-from-the-2022-grammys-red-carpet" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Grammy</a> history with 79 nominations and 28 wins. As we enter this new and exciting era for Beyonc&eacute;'s music career, let's take a look back on her previous albums as well.&nbsp;

Dangerously in Love (2003)

Beyonc&eacute;'s first solo album, Dangerously in Love, earned her five Grammys and two number-one singles for "<a href="https://www.lofficielusa.com/fashion/zendaya-beyonce-2003-vintage-versace-dress-2021-bet-awards" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Crazy In Love</a>" and "Baby Boy." To promote the album, Beyonc&eacute; went on a tour in 2003 in the UK, the Netherlands, and Ireland.&nbsp;

B'Day was aptly released on Beyonc&eacute;'s 25th birthday. The album featured her hit songs, "Irreplaceable" and "Beautiful Liar." In April 2007, she released a deluxe version of the CD with the B'Day Anthology Video Album, which had a <a href="https://www.lofficielusa.com/music/harry-styles-late-night-talking-music-video" target="_blank" rel="noopener">music video</a> for every song.

I Am...Sasha Fierce (2008)

I Am...Sasha Fierce is one of Beyonc&eacute;'s most iconic albums. With singles like "If I Were A Boy," "Single Ladies," and "Halo," it's no surprise the album sold eight million copies worldwide. Beyonc&eacute; also took the album on tour from 2009 to 2010 with her I Am...World Tour. The tour brought on designer <a href="https://www.lofficielusa.com/fashion/how-thierry-mugler-empowered-women-through-his-outlandish-designs" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Thierry Mugler</a> as a creative advisor, handling everything from costumes to lighting.&nbsp;

Beyonc&eacute;'s fourth studio album, accurately titled&nbsp;4, focused on a message of <a href="https://www.lofficielusa.com/politics-culture/famous-feminists-that-changed-womens-rights" target="_blank" rel="noopener">female empowerment</a>, as evident by the lead single "Run the World (Girls)." One of the most iconic moments to come out of this era was her "Love On Top" performance at the 2011 VMAs where she revealed her pregnancy.&nbsp;

Beyonc&eacute; dropped her self-titled album in the middle of the night with no warning or promotion and still made it to the top of the Billboard Top 200. Beyonc&eacute;&nbsp;was developed as a <a href="https://www.lofficielusa.com/music/kacey-musgraves-announces-new-visual-album-star-crossed-film" target="_blank" rel="noopener">visual album</a>, with each of the songs getting its own video.&nbsp;

Lemonade is Beyonc&eacute;'s second <a href="https://www.lofficielusa.com/pop-culture/beyonce-harvard-university-course-black-is-king" target="_blank" rel="noopener">visual album</a> and the most acclaimed album of her career. The album earned Queen B a Peabody Award in Entertainment because of the way the album addressed Black culture and feminism. The album went on to be promoted with an all-stadium tour.&nbsp;

While the Renaissance era has just begun, Beyonc&eacute; has already given us visuals to drool over. She wanted this album to be a safe place to escape the injustices of the world. When the album dropped, it was announced to be the first act of a three-part project to come.&nbsp;
