Background and release
On February 6, 2012, Braxton performed the song for the first time at the Bass Mint SuperBowl Party in Atlanta, GA.[3] On April 9, 2012, Braxton announced a casting call for models and dancers would take place for the shooting of the music video for the single. [4] On April 10, Braxton gave an interview with 107.5 WBLS studios talking about the single release stating "I didn't want to stay in that box because I'm a black girl.. If I wanted to do something that reflected me I had to do it myself".[5]
Critical reception
Upon its release, "Party or Go Home" received positive reviews from music critics. Singersroom wrote "Trina Braxton unleashes the music video for her debut solo single “Party Or Go Home.” In the visuals, Trina takes the role of a party queen as she rocks out til the morning light. The bass heavy electro-pop track, lined with catchy and fun lyrics, will undoubtedly help ‘Miss Boom Boom,’ who sang backup for her superstar sister Toni Braxton, separate herself from her siblings. She drops the word “bougie” in the song’s first line and rhymes “hands in the air” with “your derriere,” celebrating her new-found solodom."[6] Jonellprbrand wrote "Well Trina Braxton has SHOWED UP AND SHOWED OUT on this new single! Party or Go Home! This song is receiving lots of great reviews nationally. Looks like this is the beginning of something Major to Follow! Trina is BACK on the BLOCK with a new Attitude a new DU and a Great new HIT on her Hands! Thanks for the support of all her BoomBooms out there!"[7]
Music video
A music video was shot during Season 2 episode 23 "Party or Go Home" of Braxton Family Values directed by Derek Blanks.[8][9] The music video was released on Trina Braxton's VEVO account on October 9, 2012. The video features cameos from sisters Traci and Towanda Braxton.[10]
