No one thought that Beyoncé would go on to slay the pop charts when she started out with Destiny's Child. And apparently, she hasn't forgotten just how little their record label invested in their success. In 2016, Beyoncé told Elle of her Destiny's Child days,
"They underestimated us."
While she didn't specify which record label it was, Destiny's Child was signed to Columbia Records at the time.
Always one to keep her eyes on the prize, Beyoncé looked at her record label's alleged neglect as an opportunity to hone her craft. She explained,
"They allowed us to write our own songs and write our own video treatments. It ended up being the best thing, because that's when I became an artist and took control. [...] We had a vision for ourselves and nobody really cared to ask us what our vision was. So we created it on our own, and once it was successful, I realized that we had the power to create whatever vision we wanted for ourselves."
