Her first solo recording debut was as a feature on Jay-Z's '03 Bonnie & Clyde' in 2002. Her first solo album Dangerously in Love sold 317,000 copies in its first week and debuted on the top of the Billboard 200. Beyoncé Knowles is one of the best-selling music artists of all time. Born Shawn Corey Carter, Jay-Z is a rapper, record producer and entrepreneur. He is touted to be one of the most financially successful hip-hop artists and entrepreneurs in America, having sold more than 75 million records and receiving 17 Grammy Awards for music works, as well as numerous other nominations. In May 2014 Jay-Z was assaulted by Beyoncé's sister Solange Knowles. The attack was caught on tape in the elevator of The Standard Hotel in New York after the group had attended a Met Gala together.
