This is it folks - the end of Destiny's Child - as Beyonce, Kelly and Michelle branch out on their various solo projects. It all ends in Vancouver, Canada this fall with the last concert of their world tour.
The group known as "The Best-selling Female Group of All Time" has morphed from a duo to a trio, to a quartet and back to a trio since their formation in 1990 through their first albums, and finally to this greatest hits album. The album has thirteen hits and three new songs, the first single being the group's last hurrah, "Stand Up For Love", officially the 2005 World Children's Day Anthem, and widely known as the song of hope for the victims of Hurricane Katrina. The other two new songs are the excellent dance/hip hop track "Check On it" featuring Slim Thug and the solid R&B song "Feel the Same Way I Do".
The other tracks are "No No No Part 2" featuring Wyclef Jean, the remix single from their first album "Destiny's Child" in 1998; the four hits from 1999's "The Writing's on the Wall"; four from the huge 2001 album "Survivor" the first album with Beyonce, Kelly and Michelle as a trio, and including mega hits "Independent Woman Part 1", "Bootylicious" and "Survivor"; and four from 2004's "Destiny Fulfilled".
This album is a "must-have" for any music collection, but as Destiny's Child have so many other great songs, you need to collect `em all. Buy it for yourself, and then buy it for your friends.

For the first few years of the 21st century, Destiny's Child ruled the roost in terms of pop music. Their touch was golden, and pretty much everything they released was extremely successful in the UK or the USA, or both.
Listening to this collection, it's not difficult to know why. Their competence in carrying off great pop hooks is considerable, and their vocals are way better than those of people in so-called 'credible' Indie bands. Vocals should actually count for something, and by God can Beyonce Knowles carry a note.
Great pop music is all over this album, from the memorable 'Bills, Bills, Bills', to the utterly anthemic 'Independent Woman' and the similarly anthemic 'Survivor'. This was where Destiny's Child were at their best, promoting the idea of friendship and female solidarity, actually quite a positive message for a pop band to be putting across. Even sludgier songs like 'Emotion', a Bee-Gees cover, are carried off by the sheer force of Beyonce's voice, and if there is anyone who can not want to dance to 'Bootylicious', they must be one severely miserable so and so. 'Lose Your Breath' has a similar effect, hinting all too tantalisingly at what Destiny's Child may have gone on to release had they not split up when they did.
Buy this and revel in the past glories of arguably one of the greatest pop acts of all time, from these purveyors of damn near perfect pop.

The album was fab, lots of the old music and very familiar songs. If you love Destiny's Child you will love this.

I cannot honestly say that Destiny's Child are my favourite trio, or my sort of music, not really. As a middle-aged prog rock lover who enjoys all sorts of music I thought I'd give... Read more

Highly enjoyable hits album which takes you back to loved tracks.
