Dangerously in Love is the debut solo album by American R&B singer Beyoncé, released in June 2003 (see 2003 in music) on Columbia Records.

According to The Beyoncé Experience announcers, Dangerously in Love has sold over ten million copies worldwide.

[edit] History

[edit] Production

Dangerously in Love was basically named after "all of the steps in a relationship from when you first meet a guy to ... breaking up to having to love yourself after the breakup. All of that. A celebration of love".[6] Although most of the album's production had been partly finished and Dangerously in Love was widely expected to be released in October 2002,[7] Columbia Records, Knowles, and her management decided to push her solo debut back to 2003 so that Destiny's Child bandmate Kelly Rowland could capitalize off of the success of her chart-topping collaboration with rapper Nelly, "Dilemma", in the autumn of 2002. While Knowles expressed that she felt "kind of disappointed" about the album's delay at the time,[8] she eventually agreed to return to the recording studios to team up with a couple of other songwriters, including Rich Harrison. The producer helped adding a retro edge to the album, a sound Knowles promoted to be different from anything she had previously recorded with the band: "All of the songs I wrote for Destiny's Child were usually so strong and that's a good thing—but sometimes people lose touch with you being a human", she said. "I wanted people to know that I'm strong, but I can fall in love, I can get hurt, I can feel like I need someone and everything every other woman goes through".[8] She describes the album as "very eclectic. I have a different variation of different types of music, from reggae to hip hop to Middle Eastern to jazz. I took songs from the 70s that inspired me from Shuggie Otis, who was a classic 70s artist, to duets with hip hop artists Jay Z [sic], Sean Paul, Missy Elliott, to legendary people like Luther Vandross".[9]

[edit] Chart performance

The album debuted at number one on the Billboard 200 with first-week sales of 317,000 copies. It spent fifty-one weeks on the top fifty and seventy-two weeks on the top one hundred. In the UK, it also debuted (selling over 113,000 copies in its first week) at number one for five weeks, resulting to have the most consecutive weeks to reach the top position on the albums chart for 2003. It spent fifty-four weeks on the UK Albums Chart. Knowles is the first female artist (and the fifth artist ever) to top both singles (with "Crazy in Love") and albums chart simultaneously for both the U.S. and the UK, following The Beatles, Simon and Garfunkel, Rod Stewart, and Men at Work. The album earned her five Grammy Awards in 2004 as well as over thirty winnings and more than twenty further nominations from other industry awards for the album and its accolades achievements.
