I listened to both versions, I didn't have a problem with first's levels (through headphones). In the second you sound much better (ie clearer). I didn't notice more autotune than what was in the first.
Anyhow, I'm not a big fan of genre so don't take my word for it, but I thought it was good, up until the last part at least 
.
The ummm flow(?) fell apart at two points, but that was it.
EDIT: When I heard you like to record music I had no idea it was rap. lol
I do all kinds of music really. Rap is just something I'm focusing on at the moment. I was in a punk/metal band for a few years, then I did Ambient/Nature type music for awhile. I've written lyrics for Folk tunes, country songs, & psychedelic rock. I do whatever I feel like at that moment really.
Picture of me when I was in Menophobia (punk/metal band)
- FYI, I had a wife beater shirt on under because I just had my nipples pierced the day before.
I've been getting a lot of good reviews from the rap stuff, so I decided to sort of focus on it and put together an EP and see what happens.
Himuro: Freestylin can be hard, especially if you can't think of shit to say. But like anything it's something that takes practice. I personally think I suck at it, but I know I'm getting better and better the more I do it.
Sometimes though, I'll be in a mood and like no matter what beat I hear I can freestyle over it and rock it out, but that tends to happen rarely and usually when I'm not around my studio. It's only happened twice when I was in the studio. The last time it happened, I freestyled 20 + songs that night. I really need to go back and scope some of those out.
Over all though, it's a lot of fun to do.
I enjoy it a lot, I really like tweaking with shit and editing it within Sonar. The mixing part of it is great imo.
