Some thought it would never happen, but after solo successes and a three-year hiatus the ladies of Destiny's Child have reunited for the eagerly-anticipated Destiny Fulfilled. The Houston-based trio of Kelly, Michelle and some girl named Beyonce follow up their mega successful Survivor with another album full of infectious dance grooves and melancholy tales of women done wrong. Lead single "Lose My Breath" is their first offering of the former. Backed by a kinetic marching band sample, they sing with an urgency that bolsters the Rodney Jerkins-produced track. Current single "Soldier" is more of the same. Featuring T.I. and Lil' Wayne, the song allows the trio to sing the praises of the kind of men they like. Despite this one-two uptempo punch, DC does do ballads. They go old-school on the moving "If." Michelle, who has several impressive solos throughout, and Beyonce trade lines about finding and holding on to love. However, on "Bad Habit" the trio goes for the paint-by-numbers woman finding her inner-strength theme. Other highlights include the 9th Wonder and Beyonce-produced "Girl" and the midtempo gem "Free." --Rashaun Hall

Summary: Hands down! My favorite album by Destiny's Child. Vocally stunning!
Comment: I must confess, I was so mad at Destiny's Child when I first purchased this album because I saw it only had eleven tracks. With that being said, I have since learned to appreciate the quality of work that went into this album. Their harmonies are at its best and each member appears to have equal time on all of the songs. To my surprise, all three members participated in the songwriting process and are listed as album producers, which was a smart business move. The main reason why I love this album is because of the amount of growth displayed. Remember, the last album was Survivor, so in comparison to the songs on that album, as well as any albums before Survivor, Destiny Fulfilled is a vocal masterpiece. The maturity of the lyrics is such songs as Bad Habit, T-Shirt, Girl, Free shows that they have experienced the same pitfalls of love as anyone else. My favorite tracks are: Bad Habit, which was written by Solange and Kelly, Girl, Cater To You, and Love. I would have to say that Kelly shows the most growth. Her voice is purely angelic and one thing I have noticed is that Kelly sounds best when produced by Beyonce. I believe that due to their closeness, Beyonce really knows Kelly's voice, so she is able to pull out certain elements in her voice that other prodcuers can't. All I can say is get this album, because it is their best work yet.

Summary: Beyonce contradicts herself and Destiny's Child is lame
Comment: Ok... Beyonce sings about being a very independent woman and being a Survivor but she's singing about have a ghetto thug in Soldier to make her complete and that she will slave over a man in Cater 2 You? She lacks substance in her music and she's contradicts herself. There's a better word for this a Hypocrite. First of all, the Destiny's Child girls are from a upper middle class neighborhood in Texas but they're dressing up as ghetto girls in the Soldier video? And they're singing about that they want a ghetto thug as a boyfriend. No girl wants a ghetto dude as a boyfriend. They mays sell more albums than most girls groups but TLC, the Supremes, and En Vogue and even latin freestyle girl groups from the 1980's like the Cover Girls, Sweet Sensation, Seduction, Expose have more substance in their music and lyrics.
