No, No, No (Destiny's Child song)

No, No, No is a song by American R&B group Destiny's Child. It was released as their debut single in November 1997 from their self-titled debut album, Destiny's Child (1998). The song is a mid-tempo R&B track that showcases the group's vocal harmonies and signature style.

The song was released in two versions: Part 1 and Part 2. Part 1 is the original version, while Part 2 features a remix with Wyclef Jean, incorporating a more hip-hop influenced sound and adding a rap verse. The remix, "No, No, No Part 2", became the more commercially successful version, propelling Destiny's Child to mainstream attention.

Lyrically, "No, No, No" explores the theme of female empowerment and setting boundaries in relationships. The lyrics convey a message of rejecting unwanted advances and asserting independence. The repeated "No, No, No" emphasizes the firmness of the rejection and the group's stance against unwanted attention.

The success of "No, No, No" marked the beginning of Destiny's Child's career, laying the foundation for their subsequent chart-topping hits and solidifying their place in popular music. The song is considered a defining moment in the late 1990s R&B scene.
