Promotion

Let the Music Play (web series)

In conjunction with the album, Adore appeared in an 11-episode web series, Let the Music Play, by World of Wonder. Each webisode details a track off of the album.[1] The first webisode, "DTF" premiered on May 20, to promote the single of the same name.

Live performances

Adore performed her first two singles "DTF" and "I Adore U" on the finale after-show party of RuPaul's Drag Race Season 6. Performance videos were uploaded to YouTube the next day. This marked the first time Adore performed any of the songs from her album live, debuting her first single "DTF".[2] Adore has since performed songs from the album on Drag Race affiliated tours.

The album received generally positive reviews from select critics. David Lim, writing for So So Gay, praised the album: "Till Death Do Us Party is not only an affirmation of Adore’s vocal and songwriting prowess – it also puts her forward as a strong candidate for the platinum-selling American pop sorority of Katy, Ke$ha, Miley and Gaga."[3] Luis Gonzalez of AlbumConfessions wrote, "Till Death Do Us Party is a project which easily exceeds initial expectations. While most former contestant's from RuPaul's Drag Race tend to release generic material void of any vocal merit, Adore Delano proves her time on American Idol was well deserved" in his four-star review.[4]

Chart performance

The album debuted at No. 59 on the Billboard 200, No. 3 on the US Dance/Electronic Albums chart, and No. 11 on the US Independent Albums chart. It also sold 5,000 copies in its debut week, which is the best chart and sales performance of an album released by a former RuPaul's Drag Race competitor. The album has also charted higher than any RuPaul project.
