After six years since her last album “Lemonade,” Beyoncé is finally back on track. The artist surprisedly announced the past June 16th of this year that she would be releasing her seventh solo album, causing a significant impact on social networks.
With the return of Queen B, we can’t ignore the contributions that the singer and songwriter have had to the music industry and what we can musically expect from her new album. So sit down, relax, and let’s take a quick look at the musical contribution of Beyoncé in different music genres.
The Legacy of One of the Most Important Female Artists in the World
It is no secret that Beyoncé is one of the most brilliant female performers in the modern music industry. She has demonstrated she can sell out entire arenas and achieve musical recognitions no one else has ever accomplished.

From a young age, the Texas native singer started her musical career in female-only groups that quickly became a hit around the world, and yes, we are talking about Destiny’s Child.
The female group was what practically gave Beyoncé the jump to fame and also defined a lot of her musical styles inclined to R&B, soul, country music, and rap genres.
Soon, the female artist started experimenting with her solo career, and in 2006, Destiny’s Child split up, giving space to a new stage in her career.
In her solo career, Beyoncé’s music has stood out for addressing genres such as R&B, pop, and hip hop. Also, it should be noted that one of the reasons she is now one of the world’s most recognized female artists is the way she adds funk and soul to her songs that converge incredibly well with her particular tone of voice.
Her dramatic and rapid musical transformation has led her to become much more than an excellent performer, songwriter, and singer.
Beyoncé is currently considered a cultural icon with significant influence in our society. On numerous occasions, she has received multiple awards and is now considered the most-awarded female artist and one of the best-selling music artists of all time.
To this day, Sascha Fierce (alter ego) has obtained around 79 nominations, of which she has won 28 of them, something never reached by any other artist in the entire history of the Grammy Awards, one of the most important awards in the industry.
Discography
As a solo artist, Beyoncé has released six albums, of which she has sold more than thirteen million in the United States.
Lemonade is her most recent work, in which we observed a much more human and personal experience. Throughout the songs on the album, you can feel that there is a narrative that refers to her origins, her personal life, and her relationship with Jay-Z, something never seen before in that way.
Time for Renaissance
What can we expect from Bey’s 7th album?
Last July, the outstanding female exponent of the musical genre announced through social networks that she would soon be releasing her new album named Renaissance on July 29.
Only with the album’s name can we analyze that a new style and original combinations that perhaps we have not yet heard from the singer are expected.
On June 20, he gave us a little preview of what we can expect from his new album with the preview of the 6th track called “Break my soul,” in which tones of soul and dance music glimpsed with samples of Robin S’s 1993 hit “Show Me Love” and Big Freedia’s “Explode.
Among the surprises that Beyoncé and her team have prepared for us, they have let us know that this album has been in the making for years, precisely during the difficult times we have been through due to the recent pandemic.
On her Instagram, Beyoncé mentioned that this album could represent all that motivation that humanity needs to move evil with musical art.
At Gogitta Entertainment, we cannot fail to mention the vital legacy of such an outstanding female artist as Beyoncé because we believe that just like her, there are talented emerging artists who can make great strides in their careers.
We can’t wait to see what she has in store for us.
