"Home Ain't Home" is a song by American rapper YoungBoy Never Broke Again featuring fellow American rapper Rod Wave, released on August 5, 2022, as the thirteenth track from the former's fourth studio album, The Last Slimeto. The track finds the artists performing over a mellow R&B instrumental, discussing their struggles with love and relationships.
"Home Ain't Home" is "a nimble, deeply affecting workout". The song's title serves as a metaphor for the artists noting that their money can't bring them happiness as YoungBoy raps: "feelin' like my home ain't no home". However, the name shares a double meaning as it can also be interpreted as the artist feeling like their house isn't home due to the lack of love inside.[1] YoungBoy's verse is described to "[swing] skillfully between reflection and regret" whereas "Rod Wave’s melodramatic wails break the mood."[2] It's also noted that YoungBoy "deploys [autotune] strategically on choruses" and that he has "cut back on the weepy Autotuned cheese he slathered over past projects like 2020's Top."[3]
