Beyoncé was named Billboard's Top Female Artist of the 2000s in February 2009 as well as their Artist of the Millennium in May 2011. She was the RIAA's top certified and best-selling overall artist of the decade and the NRJ Music Awards also awarded her as their Artist of the Decade in France. She is one of the most influential artists of the century with solo record sales surpassing 160 million.

During the hiatus of Destiny's Child in 2003, Beyoncé released her debut solo album, Dangerously in Love, which became one of the most successful albums of that year, and signaled her viability as a solo artist.

Suga Mama
by Beyoncé
Damn that was so good I wanna buy him a short set
I'mma be like a Jolly Rancher that you get from the corner store
I'mma be like a waffle cone that's dripping down to the floor
The way you do if for me I can't lie
About to be up in the mall all night
Whatever I get you putting it on
Don't give me no lip let mama do it all
Let me be, I wants to be, gots to be
Your sugar, give mama some sugar, mama (sugar mama mama mama I'm your!)
Sugar mama, sugar mama (sugar mama)
Let me be, I wants to be, gots to be
New whip, new heavy on the wrist 'cause I'm a
Sugar mama mama mama, I'm your!
Sugar mama, sugar mama
Hey, hey
Sit on mama lap (hey, hey)
Come sit on mama lap (hey)
Come sit on mama lap (hey, hey)
Come sit on mama lap (hey)
It's so good to the point that I'd
Do anything to keep you home
Baby what you want me to buy
My accountant's waiting on the phone (on the phone)
Just the thought of making love to you
Dropping everything that's what I'll do
Whatever I get you putting it on
Now take it off while I watch you perform
Let me be, I wants to be, gots to be
Your sugar, give mama some sugar mama (sugar mama mama mama I'm your!)
Sugar mama, sugar mama (sugar mama)
Let me be, I wants to be, gots to be
New whip, new heavy on the wrist 'cause I'm a
Sugar mama mama mama, I'm your!
Sugar mama, sugar mama 'cause I'm a
Sugar mama mama mama, I'm your!
Sugar mama, sugar mama
Hey, hey
Sit on mama lap (hey, hey)
Come sit on mama lap (hey)
Come sit on mama lap (hey, hey)
Come sit on mama lap (hey)
And I've always been the type to take care of mine
I know just what I'm doing
Don't you worry it's cool and everything is steady
Claimed you on my taxes already, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
I promise I won't let no bills get behind
'Cause every touch, every kiss and hug
You best believe it'll be on time
Sugar mama mama mama yeah yeah yeah (let me be, I wants to be, gots to be)
Your sugar give mama some sugar mama (I give you all my money baby)
(Sugar mama mama mama I'm your!) (sugar mama) (honey I'll call something crazy)
Sugar mama (sugar mama) (take my credit card, the key to my house)
Let me be, I wants to be, gots to be (take my car)
New whip, new heavy on the wrist 'cause I'm a
Sugar mama mama mama, I'm your!
Sugar mama (sugar mama hey, hey)
Sit on mama lap (hey, hey) (yes!)
Come sit on mama lap (hey) (yes!)
Come sit on mama lap (hey, hey) (yes!)

Sit on mama lap (hey, hey) (yes!)
Come sit on mama lap (hey) (yes!)
Come sit on mama lap (hey, hey) (yeah)
Come sit on mama lap (hey) (yeah yeah!)

I would LOVE to hear her sing this today with her current tone. It’d be so full, deep and gritty. Just creating an entire new mood for the song.

Leïna Nehari
See ? Beyoncé has always been sexual. It's not a new Beyoncé who came in 2013, it's the same Beyoncé !
Bihzy
@Leïna Nehari man if dont see the difference from then til now you live an a complete other universe u lost chicken!
Imani Alexander
Bootee Tee she does.
Trans goddess
That Is the beauty of Beyonce. She is not my favorite. I'm not a stan.
But her sexy comes from being equally sexy as a man. What I mean is....not just physical beauty but power and respect.
The most sexy thing is beyonce thirst for power. This song flips the idea that a woman is only sexy for a man because they want something.
She dont need a man. It was always her choice. Her option. Hence she can be a sugar mama.
Her work ethic and her unapologetic boss mentality is the sexiest thing about her
Vicky A
Classier in the past tho but im not complaining
