What was Destiny’s Child’s third studio album, released in 2001?

Destiny’s Child’s third studio album, released in 2001, was titled Survivor.

The album followed The Writing’s on the Wall and marked a major commercial peak for the group. Its title track, “Survivor,” became one of Destiny’s Child’s signature songs, while “Bootylicious” and “Independent Women Part I” also became major hits.

A common mix-up is placing Survivor after Destiny Fulfilled. Destiny Fulfilled was the group’s fourth and final studio album, released in 2004 after a period in which the lineup consisted of Beyoncé, Kelly Rowland, and Michelle Williams.

Survivor also reflected a transitional period for Destiny’s Child. The group had undergone lineup changes, but its 2001 album established the trio’s best-known configuration and helped make Beyoncé a major pop and R&B star before her solo career fully expanded.
