Ain't Gonna MIss U When You're Gone - would fit perfect on Slaughterhouse

Anyone else hear the Slaughterhouse (the album as whole) vibe when listening to this track? I threw this in the middle of the album and flows pretty nice.

for me it fits perfectly on AOA.

.

01. Art Official Cage

02. Clouds

03. Breakdown

04. The Gold Standard

05. U Know

06. Breakfast Can Wait

07. This Could B Us

08. Ain't Gonna Miss U When U're Gone

09. What It Feels Like

10. Affirmation I & II

11. Way Back Home

12. FunknRoll

13. Time

14. Affirmation III

.

i like AOA well enough as it is, but Ain't Gonna Miss U fits really well,

both production wise and lyrically, coming right after This Could B Us.

plus it breaks up that long stretch of midtempo/slow tunes.

I couldn't disagree more! For me, "Ain't Gonna Miss U" is a perfect example of how lacking his tracks in this vein were before he hooked up with Josh: flat, too long and without much in the way of interesting hooks or orchestration. It doesn't help that he doused the track with a sample of Ledisi's part either.

Add additional tracks to already released albums? Lots of folks. It just so happened to work best in the middle of this particular album.

I've always guessed this song was about Andy Allo, even possibly about Shelby J stoned

It definitely reminds me of that time period. Reminds me of Sex Me, Sex Me Not.

There's more orchestration on Ain't Gonna than on most song on AOA. Horns and marimba(?), interestingly arranged. Better than anything on AOA I reckon. Could maybe fit the horn heavy Prince and NPG record?

The wooh is on the one!

I really love this song and think it would be a nice addition to AOA. Chuck off BCW, which personally I've never cared for, and put AGMUWYG in it's place.

Exactly the song I think of when I hear this tune.

Totally, and same with Breakfast and Boyfriend, they'd fit in and I was very happy about it when they came out. The Slaughterhouse and TCI are albums I love deeply ever since the tracks were randomly released in 01.

Who does that!?



I did it. But with Fallinluv2night.

But don't worry, unless I possess some godlike powers that I'm unaware of, doing so should only affect my copy of the album, not yours. wink

I did exactly the same thing, fits great, what with with the vocal effects and the rubber tatas rap at the end

cool
