Hey, I was wondering if you guys could give me a little bit feedback on the song as far as mixing and mastering. I know that there are a lot of things that are wrong about but I can't exactly say what it is.

As you hear it's a kind of pop/rnb track, and the idea is nice, but it just doesn't sound powerfull.

I would like to hear what you can tell me.

Nice song.
The kick drum seems to dominate the mix and everything else is playing 2nd fiddle to the kick drum. The rest of the tracks sound a little too compressed. Back off the kick and then you'll be able to begin to discover what else you need in the mix. Good luck.
 
Help!

Ow sorry,

Any feedback guys?

I really like how to mix the vocals better,
Any tips with compression, EQ, reverb etc.?

Dude, First off let me say that whatever I say should not be misconstrued as a personal attack. I'm just not a fan of this kind of music. That doesn't mean I can't give you some constructive critiscism.
It seems everyone is doing what I call "the Cher thing" vocoder gizmo on the vox. It was nice ONE TIME. She did it, now may it never be done again.
Otherwise, I think I agree with the kick being a bit too dominant but overall it's a pretty good job.

Its kinds like you closed the door on a good sound. Imagine if you would you were listening to this song from a nice car radio standing right by the door and it sounds awesome. Then... You close the door. Kinda like muted it...If you can figure out how to open the door and get that muffle sound out it would really sound good. I think you got a great mix. its in the mastering..Maybe. I dunno.. Im new here. :)
 
Take that auto-tune off. It doesn't make it sound good. It just makes it sound played out. If the vocals sound too bad without the auto tune then you probably need to re-record them until you get it right.

The snare sounds nice and bright, but the rest sounds like it has too much low end to it. Maybe try brightening up most of the instrumentation and just leaving the bass type instruments with the lower end frequencies.

From what I hear, even the HiHats are sitting in the same frequency range as the instruments and they are all fighting for a their place in the song.
