Long before they were blazing the Superbowl stage, Destiny’s Child were once the talk of the town when they performed during the NBA All-Star Game.

From The Vault journeys back to that glorious day of February 2005.

A few months removed from releasing their farewell album ‘Destiny Fulfilled’, and its first single ‘Lose My Breath,’ Michelle, Kelly, and Beyonce were enjoying a rather successful comeback after focusing on solo projects.

Hot on the promo trail, they hit the All-Star Game stage to perform the aforementioned single alongside its follow-up ‘Soldier’ – both peaked at #3 on the Billboard Hot 100.

It is with style, attitude, and showmanship aplenty that the trio managed to get the audience in the palm of their hands.

***********

Oh, what we would give for a Destiny’s Child reunion, of any sort.

As evidenced by the fire that occurs every time they link up, whether on stage or on a song, it’s very clear that the magic is still there.

It is also worth noting that there hasn’t been a female band that was able to reach the critical, cultural as well as chart heights our favorite girls enjoyed during their time as a unit.

Ladies, it’s time to give the people what they want!

Your thoughts?

Pink is setting the record straight and, true to form, the singer is not holding back.

Currently strutting the promotional trail in support of her new album ‘Trustfall,’ the airborne performer found herself flying into the headlines following a remark made about Christina Aguilera. 

Over the years, the Pop rebel has made no secret about the tenseness that existed between her and Xtina dating back to the ‘Lady Marmalade’ video shoot.

In the time since the pair mended fences and have been complimentary about each other. Indeed, they appeared on shows together and even collaborated on an unreleased track

For some, though, it appears there’s drama anew after a recent comment Pink made in an interview about Aguilera and the ‘Marmalade’ experience. Comments some equate to her “shading” the belter.

Pink, however, is having none of it.

Not even two months after Beyonce saw her latest Hot 100 #1 hit, ‘Break My Soul,’ help pen her in the record books of the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA) when it earned the diva her 40th Platinum plaque, Rihanna had already eclipsed the record thanks to fan favorites from her last album, 2016’s ‘Anti.’

With moderate buzz (compared to its predecessors), ‘Trustfall‘ – the ninth studio album from P!nk – charged to chart battle on February 17.

Lifted to digital shelves on the heels of previously released singles ‘Never Gonna Not Dance Again’ and its title track, the project – her first studio effort since 2019’s ‘Hurts 2B Human’ – boasts 13 songs and guest appearances from The Lumineers, First Aid Kit, and Chris Stapleton.

Yet, despite managing to see only one single impact the Hot 100 (‘Never’ has peaked at #99 so far), reports of Apple Music and iTunes domination suggested the set is pacing toward making quite the splash on the Billboard 200 its first week.

Thanks to that commercial activity, industry analysts have announced their prediction of how sales and streaming will likely spell out for the Pop diva by the end of the LP’s inaugural sales period.
