[4] Royce Da 5'9" released the cover art for the mixtape through Twitter on August 7. [5] Amazon.com posted the album preview of Welcome to: OUR HOUSE with individual snippets of all the songs. The rumored track tentatively titled "All I Want" featuring Eminem which many thought would be on the DJ Drama Gangsta Grillz On The House mixtape is actually titled "Our House" and will be featured as the first song on the Welcome to: OUR HOUSE album. On August 16, Joe Budden released the song titled "Truth or Truth" through Twitter. On August 18, Thisis50.com released the official track list as seen below and, according to Joe Budden's Twitter account, there will be a sequel to the mixtape track titled "Truth or Truth Pt1" as being Part 2. Royce Da 5'9" confirmed On The House was to be released on August 19, 2012, at 12 pm noon EST via Twitter. However, the song "Coming Home" featuring a sample of soft pop hook was produced by Arxym Jai (Jai Dave) in the last minutes of the mixtape which resulted in a delay of an hour.
