I have only listened to Destiny Fulfilled which I think is deemed one of their worst oops. But I loved that!

This witch hunt laugh.gif

I am a big fan of this album honestly with it being a huge step up following their debut, which while that was a good album this just goes one step further and sees the group come into their own. The singles choices were superb: Jumpin', Jumpin' being my personal favourite although Say My Name will also go down as a classic Destiny's Child single.

Wedged between two #1 singles I was surprised that Bug a Boo kinda flopped in the US all things considered, it is the weakest of the singles here I admit but even then I would have expected a much better showing ohmy.gif
