“Independent Women Part I” foi lançada como single da trilha sonora do filme *Charlie’s Angels* (2000), marcando a primeira vez que a música foi divulgada antes do álbum completo.
Apesar de ter sido gravada durante a fase de produção do álbum inicialmente intitulado *Independent Women*, a faixa acabou sendo incluída no álbum *Survivor*, cujo título refletia as mudanças turbulentas na formação do grupo.
A canção alcançou o topo da Billboard Hot 100, tornando‑se o terceiro single do Destiny’s Child a chegar ao número 1 nos Estados Unidos.
A produção da música contou com a participação de Beyoncé Knowles, que coescreveu a maior parte das faixas do álbum *Survivor* e ajudou a definir o som R&B/pop com influências de dance, funk e hip‑hop.
O sucesso global de “Independent Women” contribuiu para que *Survivor* fosse certificado quadriplatina pela RIAA, consolidando o álbum como o único da dupla a estrear em primeiro lugar na Billboard 200.
O tema foi reconhecido nas premiações da época, sendo incluído na campanha que levou o álbum *Survivor* a ser indicado ao Grammy de Melhor Álbum R&B em 2002.
