"No, No, No" is a song by American girl group Destiny's Child. It was written by Calvin Gaines, Mary Brown, Rob Fusari and Vincent Herbert and recorded for their first studio album, Destiny's Child (1998), with production helmed by Fuasri und Herbert. A sensual mid-tempo ballad that blends contemporary R&B with lush 1970s soul, it was renamed "No, No, No (Part 1)" after musician Wyclef Jean was consulted to produce and appear on a remix of the song. Built around a hard-sliding bassline and sung in a staccato, rhythmic style, featuring co-production from Che Greene and Jerry Duplessis, it was titled "No, No, No (Part 2)".
"No, No, No" was released as Destiny's Child debut single on November 11, 1997 by Columbia Records, with both versions serviced to radio stations and music video networks. In the United States, the song reached number three on the Billboard Hot 100 and became the ninth best-selling single of the year, selling more than 1.3 million copies. It was eventually certified platinum by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA). Elsewhere, "No, No, No" reached the top forty on the charts in appeared on and became a top ten hit in the Flemish region of Belgium, the Netherlands, Norway, and the United Kingdom.
Darren Grant directed accompanying music videos for each version of "No, No, No" in October 1997. "Part 1" features the group performing at a nightclub stage, while "Part 2" begins with a choreographed dance in a large gold room. Destiny's Child performed "No, No, No" on several television and award show ceremonies, such as Teen Summit, The Keenen Ivory Wayans Show, and the Soul Train Lady of Soul Awards. It has been performed at almost every one of the band's concert tours, and is featured on their remix album This Is the Remix (2002) and on their compilation albums, #1's (2005) and Playlist: The Very Best of Destiny's Child (2012).
