Check out waves plug ins. Specifically the Tony Maserati B72, Maserati DRM. API 2500, API 550 and C4 Compressor. You can buy these in a bundle, they're not crazy expensive and the presents are super nice.

I got the Waves bundle too. I primarily use them on Vocals. I'm going to go through my mix again and try some of the presets on my instruments.

My only knock is the mix seems off. You're too low compared to the instrumental. That aside, the arrangement is crisp, vocals are on point, song is piff :wow:

Vocal arrangement and harmonies are authentic.

Dope actually.

Like everyone is saying. Fix your mix/master and I would think this was a 90s jam that we found in a time capsule.

Churchy in parts, but it maintains an R&B feel.

Daniel Caesar is modern R&B with artists like Blxst, HER, Sza, etc. They don't sound like op you stupid ass nikka
I didn't say he sounded like OP, it's R&B and he was doing views.
Using THAT production style would help more than Nigerian Reggaeton aka Afrobeats.

This is when doing that goofy fba bullshyt is getting in the way of logic. @Hathaway, you got the talent, not these losers. Think about how you can monetize your talent while doing the music you love.
In AtVenu's 2021 Year in Review, they dug deep and found that the average artist made a whopping 16 times more in Gross Merchandise Sales per show than in a year's worth of streaming royalties. (Yep, you read that right - cough, cough - merch is where it's at!)

bytch shut up
Also: Waves is subscription only now, fw PluginAlliance.

Who gave you dusty sandal feet nikkas so many "nikka" and "c00n" passes? Some of y'all need to get beat for that.

Nobody's wearing Afrobeats merch bro. We're talking about SHOWS and shows are not streaming. The nigerian diaspora is global, ReggaeTonBeats is whereever they are. Not "selling out shows" in LA or Chicago, though. Not enough of y'all around.

Breh, i used to work in the radio biz and ive heard hundreds of demos by established artist. This sounds like a demo. I dont mean that as a diss, i mean it to say if you clean it up and polish some parts, you sound like a legit throwback artist
