You Should Be Here is the second and debut commercial mixtape[4] by American singer and songwriter Kehlani.[5] It was self-released through the iTunes Store on April 28, 2015.[6] You Should Be Here features guest appearances from Lexii Alijai, Chance the Rapper, and BJ the Chicago Kid.[7] It peaked at number 36 on the US Billboard 200.[8] Mixed by Joe Fitzgerald, the mixtape predominantly features production by Jahaan Sweet, along with production from JMike, Madmax, Geoffro Cause and Ted Digtl, among others.

In July 2015, Kehlani embarked on a tour to promote the mixtape. The tour visited cities; including North America and Europe.[9] Music videos were created for "You Should Be Here",[10] "The Way",[11] and "Alive".[12] The mixtape received a nomination for Best Urban Contemporary Album at the 58th Annual Grammy Awards.[13]

In April 2023, after receiving significant backlash for her mixed race identity over the song "N****s", the song was removed from all streaming platforms and excluded from the tracklist.[14]
