When your sister is Beyonce, stepping out from that shadow is no mean feat. However, thanks to her individuality and talent, Solange Knowles has proved to the world that she's a superstar in her own right.
Originally starting her career as a back-up dancer for Destiny's Child at the age of 14, Solange has released two solo albums but had a true "breakthrough" moment in 2012, when she released her critically-acclaimed EP True.
