Uh oh! PARTYNEXTDOOR, 22, (aka Jahron Anthony Brathwaite), started quite a firestorm after he tweeted then deleted a picture of his ex, singer Kehlani, 20, in bed with him even though she’s currently dating NBA superstar Kyrie Irving, 24. So who is this rapper who seems to have been able to steal back a woman from one of pro basketball’s hottest young stars? Let’s get to know a little more about PartyNextDoor.

Here are five fun facts about PARTYNEXTDOOR:
