The teenage R&B trio known as Divine has catapulted to the top of the charts with "Lately," the first release off the band's debut, "Fairy Tales," which arrived in stores last week.

Comprised of 17-year-old Nikki Bratcher, 17-year-old Kia Thornton and 18-year-old Tonia Tash, the group released its breakout single back in August, and Bratcher told the MTV Radio Network that the song's success was due to its universal theme -- lost love.

"'Lately' is about young love, lost love," Bratcher explained, "the girl's boyfriend is moving away and she's remembering all the fun they had together when they were kids. And she's just missing him."

"Fairy Tales" also features an appearance by former Digable Planets rapper Lady Mecca, as well as a cover of George Michael's "Faith"-era ballad, "One More Try."
