This, making it almost impossible for descendants of enslaved Africans to trace their roots back to the continent…until now.

How Oprah did it?

Readers of That Grape Juice know what avid music lovers we are – especially of hits past.

So, just as our retrospective features ‘From the Vault’ and ‘TGJ Replay’ allow us the chance to re-spin the gems and jams of yesterday of one artist, our newest feature Chart Rewind – a variation of our current Retro Rewind assay – accedes salutes to an entire era of music history.

This week we shake things up with Destiny’s Child‘s fourth and final #1 on the Hot 100, ‘Bootylicious.’   Featuring a thunderous sample of Rock goddess Stevie Nicks‘ 1982 hit ‘Edge of Seventeen,‘ the tune – released in late May 2001 as the official second single from the group’s third album ‘Survivor’ – found itself bounced to #1 not even 3 months later.

Most famously earning an entry in the dictionary, ‘Bootylicious’ would go on to remain a DC3 favorite well-beyond the trio’s official disbandment in 2005.  In fact, many may not know that some 16 years later ‘Bootylicious’ remains the last song by a girl group to top the Hot 100!

As we ‘cut a rug’ to the 2001 bop, tuck in below to see what familiar faces joined them in the top 25 this week 16 years ago:
