I've Been Working on Some New Music- Update: May 2nd - Another Song in OP

Duplicate it and pan the original hard left and the duplicate hard right and see how it sounds.

I'll try that out.

You might need to work with a producer who can help you learn the ropes of mixing and has a good ear and can do 90s music. If you really want to make money, you might want to mix 90s sound with Afrobeats. Afrobeats is dominating the game right now and it's hard to get on in America if you not talking about fukking or killing.

No it's not.
No it's not. Foh.

 

[Charlie Hustle]

I'll try that out.

Also doing a EQ cut at between -30 -60 (bass) then bumping up your master volume might be something to try to tweek your mix. What DAW are you using?

please don't do this OP.
sounds nice as is (stylistically). The main vocals sound a bit too bandpassed. idk if it needs more top end on the EQ and maybe a little bit of saturation.

I do and I look at the charts, payolabeats aren't dominating anything but africa night.
Until there are solid yearlong #1s on black stations across america, I don't wanna hear shyt about "dominance". I go outside and I hear local rappers/singers because the scene just got back popping.

 

[Black Man of the Nile]

That Nicole diss track was a masterpiece breh

 

[Anerdyblackguy]

Holy shyt you can sing. I’m not familiar with mixing or that stuff but just pure singing you got a talent man.

Your voice is not as deep but man this feels like a Gerald levert song.

 

[OrdaineD]

shyt is fire.... as another poster posted just said just needs quality mixing.... why not record yourself and then go to a proper engineer for the final mix and master.

Definitely potential

See, ima be honest. I don't understand none of that "cut eq". I'm still trying to learn the technical side. For now, I just use my ears. I use FL Studio for the music and Cubase for vocals. I mix/master the final product in FL studio.

 

[Eternally Jaded]

Tbh imo your voice is very good but the music felt like something a cover band did.
The technicals of production also need work but that can come with time.

I envy you though.

I can write but I cannot sing.

Lemme say this though; if you're gainfully employed and have it coming in, look at Fiverr as a resource for where you're weak.

Thanks breh. I just wanted to learn to master my own music without using someone else but I probably will have to try using an expert online mastering service or something. Idk any producers personally.

Like to master my music? Good looking out.
