After the release of ''[[Music/Survivor2001 Survivor]]'', the group went on hiatus to release solo projects in hopes of sparking more interest in the group. Michelle came first with the release of ''Heart to Yours'' in April 2003; Kelly followed up in October that same year with ''Simply Deep.'' Beyoncé was the final member of the group to release a solo project with the release of ''Music/DangerouslyInLove'' in June 2003. Following Knowles’s massive solo success, there was speculation that the group would never come back together. However, they reunited one last time to record ''Destiny Fulfilled'' in a three week process.

#Best Contemporary R&B Album

* SelfBackedVocalist: Kelly on "Bad Habit." This is notable because much of the album heavily features Beyoncé on the background vocals.

* MelismaticVocals: A hallmark of Destiny’s Child’s style.

* SendInTheClones: The premise of the “Lose My Breath” music video. Three versions of Destiny’s Child appear to dance battle each other: a prim and proper version in identically stylish red suits; an urban version donning streetwear; and the “fierce” version, styled in furs and heels, appears towards the end of the video to join the fray.
* SingleTargetSexuality: The protagonist’s new lover as describe in “Love.”

* SouthernRap: “Soldier.” Fitting sitting since mostly everyone[[note]]Michelle is from Illinois[[/note]] on the song is from [[UsefulNotes/NewOrleans down]] [[UsefulNotes/GeorgiaUSA south]].

''Destiny Fulfilled'' is a ConceptAlbum detailing the journey of a woman’s relationship from beginning to end. The protagonist goes through the initial meeting phase of her lover (“Lose My Breath”). Then there is the lust and official vetting period (“Soldier), followed by the love stage (“Cater 2 U” & “T-Shirt”). Soon, she becomes suspicious that her man has been unfaithful (“Is She The Reason”), and her friends are catching on to the boyfriend treating her wrong despite her protests (“Girl”). Finally, the protagonist starts to wise up and makes the decision to do what’s best for herself (“Bad Habit” & “If”). She breaks up with her sleazy ex and while she liberated (“Free), she still is dealing with the heartbreak of being betrayed. She swears of men and decides to dedicate herself more to relationship with God (“Through with Love”). After many years, she finds love again with a new man who treats her well and restores her faith in men (“Love”). She truly feels that this man is ''[[OneTrueLove the one]]'' (“Game Over”).

'''''Destiny Fulfilled''''' is the fourth[[note]]not counting 2001’s ''8 Days of Christmas''[[/note]] and final album by American girl group Music/DestinysChild. It was released on November 15, 2004.

* ChurchLady: Michelle can be seen wearing her Sunday’s best in the “Girl” music video as her verse plays in the background. Also, her verses on "Through with Love" and "Game Over" are sung with a particular religious fervor. Considering she pursued a solo career in Gospel, it is safe to say this fits her!
