"Don't Miss It" is a song by English electronic music producer and singer-songwriter James Blake from his fourth album, Assume Form.[1] It was written by Blake and produced alongside Dominic Maker of electronic music duo Mount Kimbie and Dan Foat.[2] A lyric video was released on 24 May 2018, having been premiered that day on an episode of his BBC Radio 1 residency.[3] However, it was only released as single by Polydor Records on 4 June of that year.[4] It is a piano ballad with additional drums accompanied by Blake's auto-tuned vocals.
The song received acclaim from music critics, however, a mixed review by Pitchfork, which labelled the track as "sad boy music" was met with a critical response from Blake, who deemed the expression "unhealthy and problematic when used to describe men just openly talking about their feelings."[5]
