Her debut album, Dangerously in Love (2003), was followed by the US number-one solo albums B’Day (2006), I Am… Sasha Fierce (2008), and 4 (2011). After creating her own management company, Parkwood Entertainment, Beyoncé achieved critical acclaim for the experimental visual albums Beyoncé (2013) and Lemonade (2016), which explored themes such as feminism and womanism.
