Beyonce is currently in the news due to her album “Lion King: The Gift” which featured various African acts including Wizkid, Burna Boy, Tiwa Savage, Yemi Alade, Tekno, and Shatta Wale.
She can now be considered an icon in the music industry. But her rise to success did not start today.
Over the years, Beyonce has been known for her incredible ability to catch everyone by surprise. When she has been out of the spotlight for a while and no one is expecting anything, she either comes in with a sensational album, a startling revelation or a stirring performance.
