Plot
With their sleek, cyber R&B sounds and lyrical/video world of cars, money, shopping, boys, and sex, Texas's Destiny's Child have hardly broken any new ground. However, The Platinum's on the Wall captures them at their career height and proves no one is doing this stuff with more grandeur, sass, and ice-cool efficiency. To paraphrase one commentator in 2001: This is Destiny's Child's world, the rest of us are just living in it. Beginning with their first, 1997 hit, the slow-burning, teasing "No, No, No (Part 1)" and including the foxy trot of "Bills, Bills, Bills" (an attack on backsliding homeboys as withering as TLC's "No Scrubs"), these videos, which feature costume changes on an almost frame-by-frame basis, are certainly lavish. The group, however, is seen to best advantage on the likes of "Say My Name," in which Beyonce Knowles, the group's leader and true star, gets to show off her persona a little. Disappointingly, the extra "biography" feature here is not a steamy account of their rapid rise and frequent personnel changes but a dreary, text-only account of their numerous TV appearances and platinum sales figures. --David Stubbs
