Whipped this up in the last few days, came out pretty good I think.

I think you need to make your drops more pronounced. I don't mean build to them longer, I just mean make it more obvious when it happens.
I really liked the sampling you did at the beginning, but you didn't change it too much, so it got a bit old. Then again, this isn't really my genre, so my advice is likely to be wrong on this.
Loving this. Great bass sound, what synth are you using?
Some criticisms-
The weird noises that seem to be part of the beat are just.. annoying, really.
The vocal samples don't gel with the bass after the drop. They're too liquid-y, I'd consider dropping them entirely after the drop and finding something else to fill it in, then bringing them back for midsection or whatever.

I'm using massive and adding some movement to it with camel phat 3. In my opininon I left a little bit too much high end in there
Thanks for the criticism! Will try to work on that.
This has a lot of potential you just need to do some transitioning into the drop instead of just having the whole intro just slide right into the chorus. Try adding in some kind of riser effect before the drop. Also in my opinion your snare is too bassy, try bring down the lows a tad.
This is pretty nice though so far, I really like the vocal sample.

Yeah, I've been getting alot of criticism about how I drop my songs. I got to work on that.
Snares have always been a toughie for me, they need such delecate adjustments to sound perfect.

Could I be cheeky and ask where you got the first snare sample from? The light one at the start.

It's from some vengeance sample pack with some EQ to take the low end out
Really cool vocal samples at the start, high end of the bassline is really messy so like you said, should probably lowpass it a bit

Lowpassing just makes it sound Low-Fi, I thought that maybe I should've lowered the high frequencies just a tad.
And yeah this track is completed so I'm not working on it anymore, but criticism is always welcome so I can work on stuff in my future projects!
Yeah, about the snare, when I listened to this on my speakers, I couldn't hear it at all. I really recommend throwing some reverb on there, and maybe some more high frequency snare.
It just sounds like lots of kicks right now.
