Sour .the vocals re stupid right.i like the vocal separation,and they sit well in the mono and stereo field and thats important when somthing is played on some fm stations that only have a mono response to sound.i master myself and you did a good job of using compression and eq-ing.the mix just (to
me)needs a little tuning up
just a little. i think the instrumentation is a little busy but thats because the vocals are so good i want my ears to get the full beneit from them.a word of advice from a old school brother(im at unk status age wise)use people who are not musicians to critic your songs also because musicians disect tunes.non musicians dont have this disease. either it sounds good to them or it dos'nt.great song. PEACE.THE MACK MAN OUT.

Nice track here....i like it...

i find the whole track fine, i think that the intro yes was a little long after the singing, and in the track maybe bring the vocals just a little up or the arped sound lowered a lil, the latter is more of a better choice. the track is a hit though.
much respect

PS put an explicit content on this one. as a caution to other listeners

Firstly, all that I'm about to say is opinion and preference. As a listener, I find the intro to be a bit long, nothing wrong with how it sounds so far... When the beat actually drops, its such a nice section but I feel like the impact it brings would be better if it happened sooner.

If I were you, I'd make a choice between the synth and the piano when it comes to melody. It sounds as if the two are battling it out with each other to be the loudest. Keep both but there should be one dominant melody at one time. For example, you could use the synth for the chorus, since the vocal seems to work together best with the synth, and the piano shines through on the rap verses. Or vice versa.

I would clean up the snare and make it more pronounced, its such a phat clap / snare, I'd like to hear it sitting near the top of the mix.

All in all though. I gotta say - this is quality stuff. You got the right mood and atmosphere. Stick to it and keep ripping it up!
