Release and promotion

edit

In July 2021, Juice Wrld's manager, Lil Bibby, revealed the title of the album and shared what his plan with it would be.[2][3] In February 2023, his estate announced that the album was in active development.[4][5] After teasing the album's release, the lead single of the album, "Lace It", a collaboration with American rapper Eminem and American record producer Benny Blanco, was released on December 16, 2023.[6] A two-track extended play, The Pre-Party, was released as a precursor to the album on September 9, 2024.[7][8] The second and final single of the album, "AGATS2 (Insecure)", a collaboration with Trinidadian rapper Nicki Minaj, was released on November 15, 2024.[9][10]

The album's cover art, which was designed by Japanese contemporary artist Takashi Murakami, was revealed on November 21, 2024.[11] Juice Wrld's estate collaborated with Epic Games to include a character skin of Juice Wrld in Fortnite Battle Royale.[12][13] At the end of Chapter 2 Remix of Fortnite Battle Royale, a virtual concert was held in tribute to Juice Wrld on November 30, 2024.[14]

Critical reception

edit

The Party Never Ends received generally mixed reviews from critics, who criticized the way Juice Wrld's management handled the creation and rollout of the album.[citation needed]

Robin Murray of Clash wrote that the album lacked a cohesive identity and that the album's material remained "unfinished for a reason."[1]

The Party Never Ends debuted at number four on the US Billboard 200, with 86,000 album-equivalent units in its first week, including 123.43 million on-demand streams of the songs, and 2,000 in album sales.[15][16]
