天命真女 （Destiny's Child）是美國的 R&B 女子組合。起初是一隊二重唱組合，後來發展成四重唱組合。最後演變成三重唱組合。天命真女的唱片及單曲創下了五千萬的銷售記錄。2005年 6月12日，天命真女宣佈在西班牙巴塞隆納舉行演唱會，而且她們不會再一起演出，反而追求各自的音樂、戲劇、電視和電影事業。

[编辑] 早年

1990年，原始成員碧昂絲．諾利斯(Beyoncé Knowles)和LaTavia Roberson還是9歲的時候，於德克薩斯州的休斯頓成立天命真女。碧昂絲的父親馬修．諾利斯(Mathew Knowles)以組合“Girls Tyme”的名義為她們開始唱歌和說唱的生涯。因為碧昂絲爸爸的介入，所以碧昂絲常常擔當組合的隊長。她們在電視節目“Star Search”亮相，演唱了一首說唱的歌曲。LaTavia Roberson在小學中認識凱莉．蘿蘭 (Kelly Rowland)，而且介紹凱莉給碧昂絲認識。凱莉的母親決定搬回喬治亞州的亞特蘭大之後，凱莉終於搬到諾利斯家居住。1993年，LeToya Luckett加入組合。四重唱的組合終於暫時集齊。碧昂絲的母親汀娜．諾利斯(Tina Knowles)從聖經舊約一段中的內容為她們的組合起了名稱—天命真女(Destiny's Child)。她們在休斯頓俱樂部渡過了今後的數年。在1995年，天命真女與“Elektra Records”簽約，但最後終止了合約。1997年，天命真女從“Columbia Records”得到一張唱片合約。

碧昂絲和凱莉從8歲開始接受David Lee Brewer的密集訓練直至她們發行第二張專輯「有跡可循」為止。David Lee Brewer現在是Brewer International的行政總裁，在柏林有一個藝術性的發展和管理代辦處, 而德國繼續生產贏取獎項的歌手。

天命真女的首支錄音歌曲“Killing Time”在黑超特警組的電影原音帶中率先曝光。天命真女的首張同名專輯“天命真女”在1998年 2月17日推出。專輯的第一首單曲“No, No, No”(不，不，不)兩個完全不同的版本“No, No, No Part 1”和“No, No, No Part 2”同時推出市面。然而“Part 2”在考慮過後改成Part 1的Remix版本。“No, No, No Part 2”由“The Fugees”成員“Wyclef Jean”和音。迅速登上Billboard R&B單曲榜冠軍及流行單曲排行榜第三名，而且單曲創下了破百萬張的紀錄。但是，接下來的單曲“With Me Part 1”和“Get On The Bus”不及“No, No, No”成功。天命真女最終成地下創下白金銷售紀錄。更為其家鄉德州打破了長久以來只有鄉村樂盛行的窠臼形象，而開啟了新的音樂方向。外間對天命真女的第二張專輯期望不太高，如同多數評論家認為她們和其他一次性的R&B女子組合一樣只有「一次奇蹟」。天命真女的LP唱片最終售出三百萬張以上。

[编辑] 有跡可循時期

天命真女很快又回到錄音室製作她們的第二張專輯，這次她們參與了更多的詞曲創作和製作工作，更邀來多位先前未曾合作過的當紅製作人，打算創造出更新的樂風與聲音。首支單曲“Bills, Bills, Bills”（帳單滿天飛）及另外兩首快版的歌曲“So Good”和“Bug A Boo”，便邀來樂壇當紅炸子雞Kevin "She'kspere" Briggs 來合寫及製作，“Bills, Bills, Bills”迅速登上Billboard單曲榜冠軍而且“Bills, Bills, Bills”更是天命真女的第一支冠軍單曲。1999年 7月27日，天命真女的第二張錄音室專輯「有跡可循」(The Writing's on the Wall)推出，登上Billboard流行榜第六位。專輯內還收錄Rodney Jerkins製作的“Say My Name”（呼喊我），Daryl Simmons製作、優美哀愁的“Stay”（停留）等等歌曲，為天命真女再創了樂壇新高峰。

天命真女得到突破的成績後，兩名原始成員LeToya Luckett和LaTavia Roberson譴責經理人馬修．諾利斯(Mathew Knowles)給予她們不均衡的收益，企圖支配她們，而且偏袒於他的女兒碧昂絲。但他們從未欲離開天命真女, 關係日漸變差，當天命真女的新單曲“Say My Name”（呼喊我）的音樂錄影帶在2000年 2月推出之後，音樂錄影帶中出現了兩名天命真女新的成員—蜜雪兒．威廉斯(Michelle Williams)和Farrah Franklin。LeToya Luckett和LaTavia Roberson大怒，她們提出訴訟而且控告馬修．諾利斯和前隊友違反合作關係和受託責任。一場口舌之戰由傳媒界散播；其時，天命真女一度成為通俗文化現象。但仍無損天命真女的歌唱事業，“Say My Name”成為了天命真女的最成功的單曲，而且連續三星期登上冠軍位置。

2000年 1月，第四支單曲“Jumpin' Jumpin'”（躍躍欲試）登上流行榜Top 5，然而，其它離開的成員發展成另一組合。代替離開成員的Farrah Franklin在加入之後的五個月後因為許多的私人理由便退出了組合。較少爭議的是，「有跡可循」最終銷量破八白金，而且全球創下一千三百萬銷量。同時，2000年尾，LeToya Luckett和LaTavia Roberson以分帳交換中斷部分對碧昂絲和凱莉的訴訟。雖然她們繼續攻擊碧昂絲的父親；但作為協議一部分，雙方禁止了公開攻擊對方。

有跡可循一碟不但推進了天命真女的事業、成為2000年十大最高銷量唱片之一，而且還是眾非裔女子團體中最高銷量的專輯。

Now a trio of Beyoncé Knowles, Kelly Rowland, and Michelle Williams, Destiny's Child were tapped to record the theme song for the film version of Charlie's Angels; released as a single in October 2000, "Independent Women, Pt. 1" raced up the charts and spent an astounding 11 consecutive weeks at No.1 (the longest running of 2000 and by a female group). They quickly began work on a new album to capitalize on their success. In the meantime, Destiny's Child won 2 Grammy awards for "Say My Name", including Best R&B Vocal Performance by a Duo or Group and Best R&B Song. While speaking with MTV.com, Rowland had this to say about the upcoming album: "I know everybody can relate to this album it's very diverse and inspiring. The year 2000 was very challenging, and I know that gave Beyoncé a lot of inspiration to write songs for the album. We cannot wait for everybody to hear it. It's so empowering for a lot of people who have already heard a little bit of it."

On the third Destiny's Child album, Beyoncé assumed more control than ever before, taking a greater hand in co-producing and co-writing the entire album. "We're excited about the album," Knowles told MTV News shortly before the album's release. She adds, "…I got a chance to co-write and produce all of the songs." "And she did an incredible job," the group's Kelly Rowland added. "But everybody is a part of the music," Knowles said. "Everybody is singing lead on every song, and it's so great — because now Destiny's Child is at the point vocally and mentally that it should be at. It's just great to be a part of this group." Arguably, this was clearly an inaccurate statement, as some of the songs are completely sung by Beyonce, including "Brown Eyes", "Perfect Man" and "Dance With Me" (in the Australian and UK special versions of 'Survivor'), as well as "Dangerously In Love"- the song that Beyonce used for the title and lead track for her solo album, even though it was credited as being sung by Destiny's Child. However, the lead vocals, on the majority of songs on the album, are divided evenly, where Beyonce and Kelly sing a verse each, and Michelle does the bridge, however there were some variations, particularly on "Bootylicious" (where Kelly sings two verses) and "Independent Women Part 1" (where Beyonce sings first and second verses, whilst Kelly sings the pre-chorus twice).

Survivor - whose title was reportedly inspired by a DJ's joke about Destiny's Child members voting one another off the island, much like the popular CBS reality series Survivor - hit stores in the spring of 2001, and entered the Billboard 200 at number one, selling over 663,000 copies in its first week sales (the highest ever for a girl-group.) The first three singles, "Independent Women Part I", "Survivor" and "Bootylicious", were predictably huge hits, with the latter becoming the group's fourth No.1 Hot 100 single. An über-melismatic cover of the Bee Gees' "Emotion" was also successful, becoming a Top 10 pop hit. Survivor sold well - certified 4x platinum domestically and going on to sell a total over 12 million worldwide. In the UK, Destiny's Child had two consecutive hit singles at number one which were "Independent Women Part 1" and "Survivor". In Australia, the album was certified 2x platinum and debuted at #4 on the charts. It made a comeback months later, peaking at #8 on the Australian charts. "Independent Women Part 1" reached #4 and went 2x platinum, Survivor reached #7 and went platinum, Bootylicious reached #4 and went Platinum, "Emotion" reached #22 and went Gold, and "Nasty Girl" reached #10 and also went Gold. All Up the albums and singles sold more than 450,000 units in Australia, and for the second year running, were one of the top 20 selling artists in Australia (following "the writing's on the wall" a year earlier) In the US, The LP was the seventh highest selling album of the year. Toward the end of the year, the group released a holiday album, 8 Days of Christmas, and announced plans for a series of side projects, including solo albums from all three members (to be staggered over the next year and a half, so as to avoid competition). In early 2002, a remix compilation titled This Is the Remix was released to tide fans over.

[编辑] 百戰嬌娃之後的個人發展

[编辑] 魅行天下時期

After three years apart, achieving individual success in movies, on Broadway, endorsements and with solo albums, the three women of Destiny's Child reunited with a new album, Destiny Fulfilled. The album is claimed to have been written and recorded in three weeks, which is an achievement on its own. A world tour, sponsored by McDonald's, "Destiny Fulfilled ...and Lovin' It", hit 16 countries and over 75 cities worldwide, kicking off in Hiroshima, Japan on April 9, 2005, and ending in Vancouver, Canada; stops included Australia, Europe, and the U.S. and Canada. "Lose My Breath" the album's first single, produced by Rodney Jerkins, became the group's ninth Top 10 Hot 100 hit. The album saw the trio shift to a harder, 'urban' sound and was released in November 2004. The album also saw greater equality in the trio, with each member contributing to writing on all tracks on the album, as well as becoming executive producers aside Matthew Knowles. This was also evident in the photography, as Beyonce no longer assumed the central position- this was now occupied by Kelly and Michelle- who is the central figure on the cover of the 'Destiny Fulfilled' album, as well as a lot of the accompanying photography and posters promoting the album. In terms of lead vocals, on nearly all tracks, these are divided evenly, where Beyonce and Kelly do a verse each, and Michelle does the bridge, however there were some variations, particularly in "Bad Habit" (where Kelly sings all verses and possibly all vocals), "Love" (kelly sings 2 verses), "Free" and "Through With Love" (where Beyonce sings 2 verses). In terms of background vocals, most are clearly performed by Beyonce and Kelly, however Beyonce is a lot more audible. But in the chorus of the song, "Soldier", you can clearly hear both Kelly and Michelle, as well as Beyonce. Beyonce however continued be the central figure of Destiny's Child, as she co-produced most of the tracks, alongside producers such as Rodney Jerkins, Mario Winans, Erron Williams, Rockwilder, Rich Harrison and Brian Michael Cox. The second single, "Soldier" featuring rappers T.I. and Lil Wayne quickly entered the Top 10, peaking at No.3 in February 2005 becoming the groups tenth Top 10 hit. "Lose My Breath" was certified 2x platinum and "Soldier" was certified platinum by the RIAA. Despite receiving worldwide mixed reviews, Destiny Fulfilled was certified 3x Platinum in early 2005 and has sold over 8 million copies worldwide. The album's third and fourth singles were "Girl" and "Cater 2 U," both of which went Gold by the RIAA respectively. In Australia, New Zealand and across Europe the album was certified Platinum. Destiny Fulfilled was one of the best selling albums of 2005 and it pushed the ladies back into the position of the best selling female group and American group of the year.

The album did not win any of the Grammy awards for which it was nominated. During this time, Destiny's Child was named the Best Selling Female Group of All Time by the World Music Awards.

[编辑] 天命真女解散及將來

On June 13, 2005, it was announced the group will disband after their world tour ends in the fall of 2005. [1] It was decided that the split would occur after the very last concert in Vancouver, Canada. The group first appeared on MTV's Total Request Live on June 21, 2005 to officially confirm their split. Their management decided to document their final tour for a special farewell DVD to be released March 28, 2006. It must be noted that Beyoncé herself has been quoted as saying that the breakup of the group is not permanent and she would not rule out any future Destiny's Child projects.

The group released their greatest hits album, # 1's on October 25, 2005, [2][3], which includes three new songs. One of the new songs is titled Stand Up For Love [4]. Lyrically the song is the anthem for World Children's Day, but relates to troubled times such as third world poverty, Hurricanes Katrina and Rita, and the late 2004 tsunami. "Stand Up For Love" was Destiny's Child's last single. Number 1's charted at #6 on the official UK album top 40 with first week sales over 30,000 and #1 on U.S. Billboard 200 Album chart with sales of 113,000.

Mattel released Destiny's Child Barbie Collector Dolls in August 2005. With Destiny’s Child’s recent breakup announcement, this trio of dolls is expected to become a major collector's item. In November 2005, Destiny's Child helped Wal-Mart kick off an intensive holiday campaign with television ads with the group celebrating the holidays with family and friends. Destiny's Child's last televised performance was at the 2006 NBA All-Star Game on February 19 in Houston, Texas. Beyoncé told MTV News, "Every time we go on someone's television show, they want to be the person to say it's the last show. But we've said a million times, 'It's not the last show!' Because we're gonna sing together again, again and again. We love each other and we're friends. It's the last album, but it's not the last show." [5] On March 28th, 2006, Destiny's Child received a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame.
