What was Destiny’s Child’s first major-label single, released in 1997?

The story behind the answer

Destiny’s Child’s first major-label single, released in 1997, was “No, No, No.”

The song appeared in two principal versions: Part 1 was produced by the R&B group’s regular collaborators, while Part 2 featured Wyclef Jean. It was released as the lead single from Destiny’s Child, the group’s 1998 debut album.

“No, No, No” became Destiny’s Child’s first major commercial success and reached the top of Billboard’s Hot R&B Singles chart. Its success introduced the group to a much wider audience in the United States.

Listeners sometimes confuse it with “Say My Name,” which became a later signature hit. “Survivor” came later still, after the group’s lineup and musical profile had changed considerably.
