"Party People" is a song recorded by American rapper Nelly, featuring American singer Fergie. It was recorded for Nelly's fifth studio album, Brass Knuckles, and the deluxe edition of Fergie's debut album, The Dutchess.

Background

The song was originally intended for Fergie's debut album, The Dutchess (on the Deluxe Edition of which it now appears), and featured Miami-based rapper Trina. Originally, the track was played and intended to feature Houston rapper Chamillionaire, before he passed up on the offer. In yet another (see Love in This Club) example of Polow da Don releasing tracks or beats before they were intended, he then played the track for Nelly who immediately decided that he wanted to use the beat. Nelly and Fergie recently performed "Party People" at the 2008 BET Awards. The song Party People reached number 17 in the UK Charts in 2008.

Music video

The video was shot in Los Angeles, California and directed by Marc Webb.Polow da Don, Keri Hilson and Ciara make cameos in the video.

Party People (Parliament song)

"Party People" is a song by the band Parliament from their 1979 album Gloryhallastoopid. Over ten minutes long, it was released as both a two-part 7" single and a 12" record. It reached #39 on the Billboard R&B chart.

Stylistically "Party People" is in more of a disco vein than the funk songs for which Parliament is best known. According to music writer Rickey Vincent it was the band's "self-admitted worst record ever."
