Destiny's Child Reunites!

Imagine my excitement when I read Beyonce's announcement on her website that Destiny's Child will release a new album titled; Love Songs later this month. Beyonce wrote, on her website; "I am so proud to announce the first original Destiny's Child music in eight years!"

I remember last August, when Kelly Rowland hinted the new album, telling Jam there were no plans for a new project or tour; "We don't want to scratch each other's eyes out; we love each other too much," said Rowland. If (reuniting is) something that we would want to do, you know, (we would do it) but in the meantime we're just enjoying each other's friendship. That's the greatest gift of Destiny's Child."

The Amazon pre-order page for the album describes the project as a collection of previously recorded romantic gems. I listened to one of the tracks Nuclear. It was produced by Pharrell Williams and was written by Pharrell, Michelle Williams, James Fauntleroy and Lonny Bereal. Beyonce and Bereal provided vocal production. They will be performing the track at the Super Bowl XLVII halftime show.

The group split in 2005 following their successful "Destiny Fulfilled and Lovin' It Tour" to focus on their solo careers. Their last live performance was at the 2006 NBA All-Star Game, where the group sang "The Star Spangled Banner."
