Previewed it on iTunes.... he really needs to invest in better audio equipment and sound engineers. That quality is shit. It would be such a tragedy if this album ends up being good and the audio kills it.
You can't expect every album to have world class mixing and mastering. The artists we support on this forum are hardly in the mainstream anymore where should they get their budget from? The single sounds tight to me, funky shit.
World class is not what I'm asking for - that's not realistic. I'm asking for basic level competency in sound engineering instead of hiring a fucking moron who doesn't know what he's doing. It's not that difficult these days to properly master. As far as where they should be getting their budget from: these guys have major connections to other artists - like DJ Quik for example. He'll spend maybe $20 grand on his own album and the sound quality is amazing. Quik also mentioned that he's getting a lot more into mastering because of all he's learned over the years from legends like "Big Bass." Second, these artists still do shows and can still afford to have hobbies like dumping a bunch of cash into a lowrider. Maybe take that cash and invest it into decent production instead for a better return? From where Suga Free is at these days on the production tip, there's nowhere else to go but up.
top tier mastering doesn’t even cost that muchwe’re having the new fatlip project mastered by big bass and it’s very affordable tbh
Today I turned on the most important radio in Italy and for a second I thought.. SugaKane?! Nope. But I found out the sample for the song:I think they did a great job on this sample, but I do agree they need (but they will never do it) fix a bit mixing and mastering, because it's one of the best song Suga Free and Kokane have done in recent years.
