Songfacts®:

  • "Some Of Your Love" is PartyNextDoor's hazy, alcohol-fueled R&B come-on. He wants a woman's body for one night only and promises her a good time, but he has no interest in sweet talk or romance. Honesty may not always be romantic, but it certainly saves time.
  • The track is one of three previously unreleased songs added to the 10-year anniversary edition of PartyNextDoor 3 (P3), released on August 21, 2026, to mark a decade since the original album dropped in 2016.
  • It's unlikely any single woman inspired "Some Of Your Love." Instead, it fits right alongside the core themes of his mid-2010s work: casual intimacy, heavy drinking, and emotional detachment, a vibe similar to the P3 favorite, "Transparency."
  • PartyNextDoor wrote the track alongside producers Jordan Evans, Jordon Manswell, and J'vell Boyce. Jack Tatum and the French songwriting duo Jean-Jacques Debout and Roger Dumas also receive songwriting credits due to samples.

    Tatum's credit comes from "Chinatown," a 2010 track by his dream-pop solo project, Wild Nothing. The shimmering, reverb-heavy textures of "Chinatown" form the backbone of the beat, giving PartyNextDoor's vocals their woozy, late-night feel.

    The Debout and Dumas credits bring a much more surprising piece of musical history to the track. Debout is a veteran French singer-songwriter, and Dumas was his long-time lyricist. Together, they wrote over 80 songs, many for Debout's wife, pop singer Chantal Goya, and were fixtures of the French pop scene from the 1960s through the 1980s. Their sample credit on a 2010s Toronto R&B track is a reminder of how far modern sampling can reach across genres and generations.
  • "Some Of Your Love" first surfaced on October 3, 2015, when PartyNextDoor premiered it during Episode 7 of OVO Sound Radio on Beats 1. He used the set to debut a wave of unreleased tracks. Despite the buzz, "Some Of Your Love" wasn't officially released at the time. It survived as a low-quality radio rip passed around on SoundCloud and fan forums.

    Over the next decade, it became one of PartyNextDoor's most requested "vault" tracks, building the kind of mythic status songs get when fans spend years imagining how great the finished studio mix must sound.
  • The original PartyNextDoor 3 arrived on August 12, 2016, debuting at #3 on the Billboard 200 and eventually going Gold in the US. Ten years later, OVO Sound finally released the expanded PartyNextDoor 3 [10-Year Edition] on August 21, 2026. The reissue added "Some Of Your Love," "Routine Rouge," and "You Made It," officially rescuing the songs from PartyNextDoor's vault, a place fans like to picture as a mysterious underground chamber rather than a collection of forgotten hard drives.
