Mathew Knowles Confirms New Destiny’s Child Remixes Are Coming
Mathew Knowles has announced that a collection of unreleased Destiny’s Child remixes is set to arrive within the next 30 days.
Fans of the iconic girl group Beyoncé, Kelly Rowland, and Michelle Williams have reason to celebrate. Mathew Knowles, the group’s former manager and father to Beyoncé, has officially confirmed that new Destiny’s Child remixes are coming, marking a significant moment for the group more than two decades after their final studio album, Destiny Fulfilled.
During a recent appearance on SiriusXM’s Page Six Radio, Knowles revealed that the project is imminent. “We’re about to market a bunch of new remixes, some you’ve never heard before,” he stated. While he stopped short of confirming a full-length album, he noted that the music is expected to drop within the next 30 days. The collection promises a diverse array of sounds, ranging from dance-oriented tracks to classic urban mixes, featuring guest appearances that have remained under wraps for years.
A Treasure Trove of Unreleased Music
Knowles emphasized the depth of the group’s archives, noting that there is a significant amount of material that never saw the light of day during their active years. “We have a number of remixes that have never been released, and we’ll be putting those out soon,” he explained. “We have some guest rappers on it, but it’s the girls on them. And then there’s some that are dance mixes, and then there’s some that are just regular urban mixes. So there’s a combination.”
When pressed for details regarding potential collaborators, Knowles offered a tantalizing hint, confirming that Missy Elliott is featured on at least one of the tracks. However, he quickly pivoted, opting to keep the rest of the project’s surprises intact.
Celebrating a Legacy
The announcement arrives just as the group celebrates the anniversary of their breakthrough sophomore album, The Writing’s on the Wall. Originally released in 1999, the album featured the classic lineup of Beyoncé, Kelly Rowland, LaTavia Roberson, and LeToya Luckett. The group recently took to social media to honor the milestone, sharing the album cover with a caption that read, “Receipts were kept. Rules were written. Classics were made. Celebrating The Writing’s on the Wall, released on this day in 1999.”
Following the departure of Roberson and Luckett in 2000, the group underwent a transition, eventually solidifying as a trio with the addition of Michelle Williams. This iteration went on to release the massive hits Survivor and Destiny Fulfilled. For fans who have long awaited a return to the group’s distinct soulful sound, this upcoming release serves as a nostalgic bridge to one of the most influential eras in R&B history.
