PartyNextDoor News

PartyNextDoor has quickly become a fan favorite r'n'b singer, thanks to an OVO deal and solid stream of releases behind him. In December, the singer hit fans with four new records as part of a quick Colors EP, which also came with a world tour announcement.

When hip-hop began, samples were all that DJs and producers had to construct instrumental tracks with. They'd dig through crates of vinyl trying to find isolated drum breaks, melodies or vocals that they could repurpose for use in hip-hop music.

PartyNextDoor took over the song list late last night when he dropped four new records. Travi$ Scott is featured on "Jus Know," and he's got Ca$h Out on "Don't Worry." He also let go "Girl From Oakland  and "Let's Get Married."

PARTYNEXTDOOR kicked off his "PND Live" tour with a bang tonight in Montreal, Canada, bringing out his OVO Sound label boss Drake for a live performance of "Recognize," the duo's acclaimed collaboration from PARTYNEXTDOOR 2. Instagrammers at the show were quick to upload videos of the performance to the web.

PARTYNEXTDOOR released his sophomore project earlier this summer, and has been subsequently supporting Drake and Lil Wayne on their "Vs." tour. Now the singer will get a chance to showcase his new material on a solo run, announcing dates for "PARTYNEXTDOOR Live" today.

This week we see one new entry below, belonging to October's Very Own's PARTYNEXTDOOR. The r'n'b singer is relatively new, having released his first official mixtape PARTYNEXTDOOR just last summer.

When hip-hop began, samples were all that DJs and producers had to construct instrumental tracks with. They'd dig through crates of vinyl trying to find isolated drum breaks, melodies or vocals that they could repurpose for use in hip-hop music.

PARTYNEXTDOOR is Canadian rising star Jahron Brathwaite, formerly a producer of soft, sunny R&B with EDM inflections. His first wide release under the new name represented a new label situation, through signing with Drake’s OVO Sound, and a fully realized change in sound and lyrical content.

Drake's takeover of the rap game has been far from subtle, but his OVO label artists infiltration was a little more low-key.

Like The Weeknd before him, mystery plays quite a big role in OVO singer PARTYNEXTDOOR's career. That's why it shouldn't come as any shock that the Toronto songwriter/producer has announced his next project just two weeks before it drops.

With the 4th of July having happened this past week, and people still celebrating this weekend, the blogging has been toned down the past few days. However, at the beginning of the week, we saw notable mixtape releases from Ty Dolla $ign, PartyNextDoor and Joey Bada$$.

Drake is once again helping to launch the career of an r'n'b artist from Toronto, since The Weeknd successfully signed with a major label last year. This time the artist, PARTYNEXTDOOR, is signed to his own OVO imprint.

 Very little information has been provided, but it looks like OVO's latest signee, PARTYNEXTDOOR, will be releasing a self-titled project in a couple weeks.

You know how it goes. We've grabbed some of the tracks we thought were overlooked this past week, and placed them all in one place (here) for your enjoyment. This week it really is about rappers that are overlooked (apart from Party Next Door, who is not a rapper at all).

The month of April is already wrapping up, even though it seems like it just arrived. We celebrated 4/20 over the weekend, which saw an influx of weed-smoking songs on the site, as expected. Nonetheless, we like think that you can make every day a 4/20, especially when you have the right music.
