Wikipedia article
"'Wish I Didn't Miss You'" is a song by American recording artist Angie Stone. It was written by Ivan Matias and Andrea Martin for Stone's second studio album, 'Mahogany Soul' (2001), while production was helmed by Matias, Martin and Swizz Beatz. The song features a sampled composition of the O'Jays's 1972 record "Back Stabbers" as written by Leon Huff, Gene McFadden, and John Whitehead. It was the last song ever played at Space nightclub in Ibiza on October 3, 2016. It was played by Carl Cox.
Critical reception
Jose F. Promis from AllMusic wrote that 'Mahogany Soul's "true gem is the smoldering, gorgeous, aching 'Wish I Didn't Miss You,' which pulls forward with an unstoppable beat and features a stellar, yearning performance from Miss Stone." Similarly, Barry Walters from 'Rolling Stone' declared it the album's "knockout track". 'Spin' magazine ranked the song among the 20 best singles of 2002 and wrote: "If Angie were skinny, Whitney would be unnecessary and Mary J. would be worried. Sad but true".
