Not even Dionne Warwick and her mind-reading friends could have predicted that, over the course of two CDs, Destiny's Child would become one of the most successful girl groups on the planet. But successful this Houston trio is, and their sophomore CD shows why. Yes, the lineup changes as often as lead singer Beyoncé's hairstyle, but fun, disposable pop/R&B needn't be rooted in permanence, and DC is mad fun and mad catchy to boot. With the assistance of hitmakers Shek'spere and Kandi Burruss, Destiny's Child trade in effervescent, hip-shaking, finger-wagging, 'you-go-girl, kick-him-to-the-curb' anthems. The Writing's on the Wall is loaded with tracks like "Bills, Bills, Bills," which are suitable both for dancing and as topics on the Ricki Lake Show. The percolating "Bug A Boo" is irresistible, as is the sassy "So Good." To their credit, the girls can slow the pace down, and on the sultry "Temptation" they get to work their considerable chops to nice effect. But as sales and chart figures have shown, Destiny's Child are at their best when they are laying down the law to some trifling man, and/or working their own groove thang. Work it they do on this somewhat formulaic but ultimately irresistible effort. --Amy Linden

5 out of 5 stars Stardom For Beyonce Was Born .......2007-03-09

What can I say about this CD is that the album is excellent. There really isn't anything bad I can say about this is that I wish Beyonce could've shared the mic a little more with the other members, and maybe slow down on the male-bashing. In all honesty, they do need it at times if the show trifling behavior. The standout tracks would be "Say My Name", "Hey Ladies", "Temptations", "Now That Your Gone", and "Bills, Bills, Bills". This will forever be a classic and DC's best album. "Survivor was a horrible follow-up.

4 out of 5 stars Destination Stardome!.......2006-11-06

Few People would have thought that the band with the quite modest debut would be able to make such a great second album and eventually become one of the most succesful girl-groups of all time. "The Writing's on the Wall" would have countless of hits and the album itself would eventually sell 12 million copies and spend 99 consecutive weeks on the Billboard album charts (that's about 2 years). With new producers, Rodney "Darkchild" Jerkins and Missy Elliott among others, the sound would also change and they would find their true identity. There would be some ballads, but the hitsingles would be uptempo songs with female attitute, something that contributed to their rise of fame. Unfortunately there would also be changes in the lineup, LeToya and LaTavia who were both childhood friends with Beyonce and Kelly felt they were maltreated by manager Matthew Knowles (Beyonce's Father) and left the band, they appeared on the recording but not in the videos. Farrah Franklin and Michelle Williams joined instead, but Franklin's visit would be shortlived also. The album however is very strong, uptempo's like "Bills Bills Bills" "Bug A Boo" "Jumpin' Jumpin" and "Say My Name" were all big hits and with that Destiny's Child both had good critital acclaim and a great fan base. Album songs like uptempo "So Good" and slow pace/ballads "Confession" and "Temptation" are not bad either, towards the end there's a few too many songs though, 12 songs instead of 16 would have been better. The end result is good, Destiny's Child had got superstatus with a own sound and the album was more even the their debut, their upcoming 2 albums would also be good before a split-up was inevitable. 4 stars.

5 out of 5 stars This album was their destiny!.......2006-10-21

Beyonce and company created a classic album with `Writings on the Wall', arguably the best Destiny's Child album period. With hit after hit, it was this album that made Destiny's Child a household name. Sure, `No, no, no' was great, but can you remember any other track off their ill-fated debut? I can't, but I can sure remember just about every track off this album. Actually just today (don't tell my wife this is so embarrassing) but I was driving to lunch when I heard `Bug A Boo' come on the radio (probably my favorite Destiny's Child song ever) and I just started singing with Beyonce, every word flooding back into my mind. So freaking catchy! Anyways, the album is great, from hit club bangers like `Jumpin, Jumpin' and `Bills, Bills, Bills' to classic slow jams like `Stay' and `Temptation' (sultry) and then my personal favorites `Bug A Boo' and probably their biggest hit `Say My Name' Destiny's Child will forever be remembered for this brilliant sophomore album. It's too bad that Michelle wasn't a part of this since I really like her talent...it's just that Destiny's Child will never be able to reach the greatness they experienced with this album.

5 out of 5 stars Destiny's Child will leave you speechless.........2006-09-07

Beyonce, Letoya, Kelly, and Latavia grabbed the music industry in a chokehold and squeezed the air out with this solid sophomore album. This was the last album we saw with the "original" memebers of Destiny's Child (today just Kelly, Michelle, and Beyonce) and redefined 'girl groups' in R&B forever.

This album was primarily based on the do's and don't of relationships. These women covered everything from cheating, to paying bills, bugging your mate to death, jumpin' off in the club, giving into temptation, confessions on infidelity, and so much more. There was so much substance to the album that it put Destiny's Child on the map, unfortunately we saw roster changes for 8 months straight (but that didn't stop their reign, it only made them stronger....hence "Survivor"..)

Standout tracks: Confessions, Temptation, So Good, If You Leave Her, Say My Name, and Hey Ladies. Phenomenal work!

        5 out of 5 stars A great buy.......2006-04-30

        This Germany import of Destiny's Child's first 2 albums : 1. Self titled and 2 : "The writing's on the wall" is a great buy. It is less expensive than paying for them separate and you'll get 5 extra tracks that you won't when you the the US editions of these 2 cds. This is the way to go if you don't have their first 2 albums yet.

            5 out of 5 stars Their best album.......2003-01-16

            This album is their best so far. The songs are catchier than those on their first album but not as cheezy as on their third. Most of the songs are R n'B with a few pop numbers.
            Intro, So good: A catchy R n'B-Song. Dedicated to the haters. One of their best.
            Bills Bills Bills: The first single. About a man who uses them for getting money.
            Confessions: A slow R n'B song. I liked it at fist but at the second time I heard it I didn't. Now it starts growing on me again.
            Bug a boo: My favourite Up Tempo-song. It'S about an ex-boyfriend who can't let her go.
            Temptation: Sounds like one of the better songs on their first album. Very relaxt.
            Now that she's gone: Like "Temptation" but not as good.
            Where d'you go: Pretty ballad about lovesickness.
            Hey ladies: nON OF MY FAVORITES BUT GREAT LYRICS.
            iF YOU LEAVE: fEAT nEXT: nICE SOULBALLAD BUT BORING:
            jUMPIN JUMPIN. gREAT POPSONG: i LOVE IT:
            sAY MY NAME. tHE GREATEST HIT FROM THE ALBUM: aBOUT A GUY WHO SUDDENLY IGNORES THEM.
            She can't love you: Another ballad about lovesickness.
            Stay: MY favourite ballad.
            Sweet sixteen: About a girl who runs away and gets a baby. Very touching.
            Outro: Amazing grace. They sing it accapella. Very good.
            Get on the bus: Hip Hop song. I don'T like it.
            Bonus CD: It'S not so necessary to buy this version now because all of the songs are on other albums.
            Independent women Part I: They say that this is a remix but it'S the single version. One of their biggest hits and best songs.

            Independent women Part II: This doesn't really sound like Part I which I prefer. But it'S also good.
            ( days of Christmas: One of the best Pop-Christmas songs that I know.
            No no no Part II: Their first hit. With Wyclef Jean
            What I really like about this CD is not only the great voices of the band members but also the well written lyrics. You should sit down listen and enjoy :-)
