<p>We all know that Solange Knowles-Ferguson is Beyoncé&#8217;s little sister, but she&#8217;s so much more than than&#8211; she&#8217;s an individual. It takes a lot of confidence to step out from behind the shadow of someone that&#8217;s not you and to thrive, and we believe Solo has done just that. Here are a few reasons why we can&#8217;t get enough of you, Soul-Angel!</p>
<p>1.) She&#8217;s been in formation.<br />

<p>Never forget when her wedding photos broke the internet! There was nothing more epic than seeing such a gorgeous group of sistahs in every shade of brown you could ever dream of!</p>
<p>2.) She fights for what she believes in.</p>

<p>You can take that however you want. #NoShade, but this woman is passionate! I&#8217;ve always taken the line &#8220;My sister told me I should speak my mind&#8221; in Bey&#8217;s Flawless to mean that she&#8217;s the type of person who always stands up for what&#8217;s important to her.</p>
<p>3.) She&#8217;s a great mother.</p>

<p>Solo gave birth to her son Julez in 2004 and she has clearly become a better woman because of him. Just look at how happy she is! They say your kids help you learn about yourself and it appears that she&#8217;s got a clear understanding of life.</p>
<p>4.) She has great taste in music!</p>

<p>Didn&#8217;t know she was a DJ, did you? She&#8217;s graced many ears with her sickening mashups at various high-profile industry events and even spins at her own parties.</p>
<p>5.) She&#8217;s unapologetically expressive.</p>

<p>Solange is a person that takes the time to express exactly who she is through her clothing and her music! Expression is expression&#8211; she doesn&#8217;t judge the method and she does it so effortlessly!</p>
