PartyNextDoor 4 (shortened to P4) is the fourth studio album by Canadian singer PartyNextDoor, released on April 26, 2024, through OVO Sound and the Santa Anna Label Group.[1] Unlike his previous projects, the album features no guest appearances, however it features production from PartyNextDoor himself, 40, Cardiak and OG Parker, alongside others.[2] It is his first album in four years since the release of Partymobile (2020), and marks the first installment of his eponymous album series in over seven years since PartyNextDoor 3 in 2016.

Release and promotion

PartyNextDoor released the album's first single, "Her Old Friends" on January 13, 2023.[3][4] The album's second single, "Resentment" was released six months later on July 7, 2023.[5] Under a year later, while teasing the release of the album, PartyNextDoor released a CCTV video for the track while setting the album for pre-order.[6] This was followed by the release of the album's third single, "Real Woman" on March 15, 2024, alongside the album's official announcement.[7][8] On April 2, Party officially released the album's NSFW artwork while confirming the album's release date.[9] On April 11, Party released the album's final single, "Lose My Mind" before sharing the album's tracklist just a day prior to the album's release on April 25.[10][11]

Upon the release of the album, Party released the official music video for "For Certain".[12]

Clash8/10[13]

Clash's Robin Murray wrote that the "whole project is cohesive" and that "each song speaks to the next" while describing the project as an "alluring document of salacious R&B titillation". Murray concluded that "the album closes on an oddly sombre note" and that PartyNextDoor 4 "taps into his core values".[13]

Commercial performance

PartyNextDoor 4 debuted at number ten on the US Billboard 200 chart, earning 37,000 album-equivalent units in its first week.[14] This became Party's third US top-ten debut.[14]
