Five years may have passed since PARTYNEXTDOOR last graced a UK stage, but if his sold-out shows at Hammersmith Apollo proved anything, it’s that his grip on the R&B realm is as strong as ever. From the moment he stepped out under the lights, the atmosphere was nothing short of electric. The crowd, a lively mix of R&B lovers, seemed ready for more than just a performance. They came to party.
This giant, intimate celebration with the audience, with their drinks in hand, swayed and sang along to every word, their voices rising in unison with hits like “Not Nice” and “LoseMyMind”. And when he delved into his signature collaborations, including the unmistakable Drake and Rihanna-penned “Work,” it was pure euphoria and nostalgia.
But it wasn’t just the music that had the crowd enraptured. The Sorry I'm Outside Tour was joined by talented dancers whose movements flowed effortlessly with his topical sound. PARTYNEXTDOOR gave fans a show that was as visually captivating as it was sonically thrilling. The dancers mirrored the smooth and sultry energy of the songs, adding layers to tracks like “No Chill,” a standout from his latest album and where the live band transformed the studio polish into something rawer and more intimate. With his magnetic stage presence, the energy was infectious as he used moments between tracks to connect with his audience of diehard PND fans as well as engage with the dancers, much to the crowds delight and adding a sense of fun that heightened the atmosphere. Not only was he performing with the crowd, he was celebrating with them.
The live band were the evening’s secret weapon. Each note brought an electric touch that swept through the venue like a swift breeze. It was a reminder that while PARTYNEXTDOOR is known for his infectious hooks and dancefloor-ready beats, his music carries an undercurrent of passion that resonates just as powerfully in a live setting.
As the night drew to a close, one thing was clear: after three back-to-back sold-out shows, PARTYNEXTDOOR's legacy in R&B remains unshaken. His absence from the UK only amplified the love and loyalty of his fans, who danced the night away, grateful for the rare chance to see their icon in action.
