Solange Piaget Knowles, a multifaceted American artist, was born on June 24, 1986, in Houston, Texas, alongside her older sister, Beyoncé, a renowned singer and former member of the R&B group Destiny's Child.
As a young girl, Solange demonstrated a keen interest in music recording, which eventually led her to break into the music scene at the tender age of 16.
Throughout her career, Solange has released two studio albums: Solo Star in 2003 and Sol-Angel and the Hadley St. Dreams in 2008, which reached a remarkable number nine on the US Billboard 200 chart.
In addition to her music endeavors, Solange has also explored other creative avenues, including film, modeling, and entrepreneurship. In 2009, she co-launched the junior apparel collection Deréon, a sister line to House of Deréon, which was established by her mother and sister.
Despite being often compared to her sister by the media, Solange is quick to dismiss these comparisons, emphasizing that they are artistically distinct individuals with their own unique styles and contributions to the entertainment industry.
