I've been mixing 20 plus years. Compression and limiters are normal in every track but too much compression makes everything loud but flat. My main issue is the lack of eq-ing in the songs.
Breh we in the era where a whole album can be made off of a smart phone
No different from when Beats By The Pound had to pump out tracks for those No Limit albums and P basically told KLC "mannnn nikkas in the hood don't have good speakers"
Basically hit the "make my beats fakkit". Hell, it's bad enough music in general isnt profitable unless you got a label and the machine to do such things. Bad mixing or no mixing, the train can't stop

Dude is gonna miss out on a ton of salesI hate that about artists. They release a popular song, but want to make a album without the smash single

I think that’s dope actually. The song is going to do what it is going to do. I also think it’s a testament to his artistry. I feel like it’s a move to show all the fly by night listeners this is what I’m about, don’t just focus on this one big record. Not like they aren’t going to eat off the song regardless and I’m sure there will end up being a deluxe or something.Wait this guy didn’t put “Million Dollar Baby” and “Devil Is A Lie” on this

I don’t think in any way they just didn’t mix it. I believe he’s very hands on and intentional about his sound, so don’t see this as just a lapse of process. It’s different for me though cause I’ve been listening to him, so it vibes like it’s been vibing.
It’s a much longer convo though and I respect your position but sometimes those things play into the artists sound.
It's not supposed to be mixed
The "Phonk" sound being emulated for the song is based on early 90s Memphis Rap. One of it's defining features is how gritty and unmixed it sounds
On and off topic, listening to the new album and I swear it just sounds like Thundercat over Phonk beats

I liked the new album. Definitely won't be for everyone but I thought it was a solid project.
