How many Grammy Awards did Destiny’s Child’s “Say My Name” win in 2001?

The story behind the answer

Destiny’s Child’s “Say My Name” won two Grammy Awards in 2001.

The song won Best R&B Performance by a Duo or Group with Vocals and Best R&B Song at the 43rd Annual Grammy Awards. It was released on Destiny’s Child’s second studio album, The Writing’s on the Wall, which arrived in 1999.

“Say My Name” became one of the group’s defining recordings. Its lyrics describe suspicion in a relationship, while the production uses layered vocals, rhythmic changes, and a tightly controlled arrangement. Beyoncé was the group’s lead vocalist, alongside Kelly Rowland and Michelle Williams during the group’s best-known period.

The song is sometimes credited with more awards because Destiny’s Child won other honors during the same era. The Grammy total for “Say My Name” itself is two, not the group’s overall career total or the number of awards received by its album.
