Beyoncé

Contemporary R&B
Contemporary R&BCountryPop

Beyoncé is a Contemporary R&B and Country act. Their catalogue also touches Pop. Their sound grew out of Hiatus Kaiyote, Moonchild Sanelly, Tina Turner, My 21st Century Blues and At Last!. Those roots explain a lot about how Beyoncé arrange songs and choose their tones. They run in the same orbit as The Carters, Destiny's Child, Chloe x Halle, Chlöe and Kelly Rowland, sharing audiences, venues and reference points rather than a straight line of influence. Their influence carried into Agnez Mo, Zara Larsson, Sam Smith, Bridgit Mendler and Meghan Trainor, where the same ideas turn up rearranged for a later generation. Altogether the chart holds 318 connections around Beyoncé, reaching back through Hiatus Kaiyote and forward to Agnez Mo.
