It's about gettin' smart.

Ok thanks for the support not! I love how i ask a simple question and people wanna start getting smart.
YF, the stuff in your bio is admirable and I meant what I said about liking your willingness to learn. You show good determination and spirit. You've made the effort to turn yourself around, no easy thing. I dig that. The point that people are trying to make is simply this ; for us to help, meet us half way and make it so we can. Yes, you'll run into some sarcastic {but often good natured} quips now and again. Sure people will go off on tangents and sidetracks that can be annoying at times (I'm terrible for tangents. It shows in my music !) But essentially, people that answer generally want to help. Loads of newcomers ask exactly what you've asked (look in the singers forum) and make it simple and 'one click' to hear their stuff. And then they get their answer.
And loads of them never return !









But that's another movie for Spielberg to direct....
 
Cool man. Catchy tune there. Though not my typical genre, I actually liked it. It will probably be in my head all day now. :) The first thing I noticed was the mix sounds a bit on the dark side. Mostly the instruments. I would brighten it all up a bit. Give it some 'air' around 5k. I am hearing that some tight rhythmic HH would sound good here. Not my tune tho so obviously not my call.

As Random said, I would definitely get a pop filter, or even add a second one if you are already using one with your 2020. Also you can try speaking slightly off axis with the mic. Your plosives ('P's and 'C's) are really jumping out in "I need A Dollar". You can insert a short curve fade in just at the beginning of each of these to help tame them on your already recorded tracks. I also noticed what sounds like punch in 'pops' in a few spots. A crossfade is your friend here. Anytime you have a sharp change in waveforms on the same track, you will get these sounds. Smooth these little things out and it will be more pleasing to my ears.

Overall man, I like your song. Keep it up yo! :D
