Sup EDJ?.....You want an assessment? First I wanna say, that I am not the type of nigga to be board hoppin, criticizing another mans artwork. I am too critical of myself to judge another! What may work for me...may not for you or, visa versa! With that said, here is myopinion
I like the dismissed snippet! Flow is good...words could be more pronounced with more attack.
Tighten up the mixing on Made Soldier. Sounds all over the place.
I listend to Life After a few times. Good song, nice music.
the background male vocals could be mixed a little cleaner.
More distant throught the verse, and bump him up for the chorus.
I had a hard time understanding you in the last verse. kinda deviated from the first and second verse. However, the delivery seems to be on point for the last verse, just couldn't make out some of the wordz, but still enough to know what you're speakin on and what inspired you to write the song.....
your brother(R.I.P)So therefore the groove and feel of the song remains consistent throughout....and that is a heartfelt feeling!
A variation of the keys and bass that enter @3:50 could be inserted somwhere early on in the song, NICE CHANGE UP!...but without the cliccing and shooting of the gun , that's cool for the out of the song though!
Overall I think that the mastering, mixing and vocal clarity are the only shortcomings. Minor shit! You have a BUMPABLE and BANKABLE sound!
I'll be posting audio in the near future. I would like to get your opinion as well. Maybe collab on some shit. Who knows...
We'll callit "Denver 2 Dago" lol . I primarily focus on production, but I'm also pretty loose wit a pad n pen. I'm 32 now so I got bigger goals and mouths to feed.
