After Party is the second studio album from American singer-songwriter and drag queen, Adore Delano. The album was released through Producer Entertainment Group on March 11, 2016. It was made available to pre-order on February 18, 2016. The album's lead single, "Dynamite" was released on February 26, 2016 with the song's music video premiering the same day.
In August 2015, Delano spoke to So So Gay, revealing that her double album would feature 22 songs, and will be released sometime in 2016. This was changed in a recent interview with Queen Magazine, confirming that half of the songs would be used for another album. She has performed a new song from the album, "I Can't Love You" various times on her tour. She's described it as "about not being able to give your full self to someone. It's a sad song". On November 17, 2015, Delano confirmed that her upcoming album's name was going to be called After Party. She confirmed it via Twitter, and later on through Facebook. The album was put on Amazon Music for pre-order, with a release date of March 11, 2016. The first single, "Dynamite," was released February 26, 2016, the second single, "Take Me There," was released March 10, 2016 and the third single, "I.C.U.," was released on September 1, 2016. Adore was one of ten contestants on the second season of All Stars on RuPaul's Drag Race. Delano quit the show in the second episode, becoming the first contestant in Drag Race history to voluntarily withdraw.
As of 2017, Adore is currently working on new music.
On April 4, 2017, after saying she should be multi-millionaire, Delano filed a lawsuit against Producer Entertainment Group. She revealed that she was supposed to earn $2.5 million over the past three years instead of only earning $300k. The management team then threatened to "destroy her career" if Adore continued questioning his finances.
She's suing $1 million in lost wages, and another $2.5 million in punitive damages.
Delano will embark on a tour to promote the release of After Party in the United Kingdom commencing on March 3, 2016 in London and concluding on March 6 in Manchester. Fans who bought VIP tickets were due to also receive their own physical copy of the album exclusively before the worldwide release, however this was later changed to receiving an exclusive signed poster.
