Whats your suggestion @Iron Keys ?
Love for asking brother.

I'm only listening in headphones at the moment , but from what I can tell it's vibinggg! I really like it.

Mix wise... MAYBE the kick is just a notch too loud - maybe; my headphones are bassy. Also, I'd rather a kick be a little too loud than a little too weak.

Curious, how much of the beat was sample and how much was 'you'? (This isn't asked accusatory, but I sometimes face this internal battle when I make sample driven stuff.)

Nice work, congrats on win - maybe I need to make a comeback to provide some challenge!

Thanks for listening and voting! Hoped that this kind of broken beat works and it seemingly does. Mix- and genre-wise think I´m still pretty average. Especially definition per mixing could be better as @MichaelsLife said in other terms (EQing). (y) Whats your suggestion @Iron Keys ?
Dope beat @Pcs shorty!
Your beat is dope bro, I like the way you laid out the vocal chops. If I was going to make any suggestions I would say to work on your beats structure. Try to switch it up a little more. When I make beats the structure I use is intro/hook/verse 1/bridge/hook/verse 2/outro. Each section should be a little different so things don't get too repetitive. Great job on the beat, clean mix. Congrats on the win fam!
