@GHOST you ask for criticism and then get offended when you receive it. We're trying to be constructive but it's going in one ear and out the other. I'm sorry that our criticsms, mine specifically, is too harsh for you and you're getting offended by it, but as I said before, the truth hurts. You've got to be able to swallow your pride and accept it, especially when none of us have said "its just bad youre garbage stop making music this is bad this is bad and thats bad too zomg"

Like we've said nothing intentionally offensive or rude (and the stuff that I said that was misconstrued, i.e. the money thing, I happily and humbly apologize for. Didn't mean for it to be taken that way at all).

If you want to learn how to mix, what better way than to listen and learn from what other people do? If you aren't strong enough yet in something, why not get help until you become strong enough? OR, perhaps you could allow someone else to do what you're weak at so that you can focus on what you're strong at? Either way, it would only improve your songs.

And yes, please use Candle Queen as a reference! It's a good song! It deserves more recognition! It's the power of teamwork and different ideas smushed together into a lovely song!

As for what you're saying about quitting music altogether, I don't think you should. That's because you are still talented, and you have a lot of potential as a musician. It would be a huge disappointment to see you disappear. I might not like your music all that much, but credit where credit's due; you exploded onto the scene and you did something different and it worked for literally tens of thousands of people.

And despite the backlash and the negative stuff you get hit with, you've got literal thousands of people who love your work and would stan for you any day of the week.

But if you think it's for the best that you leave music,  you do it. You should do what's best for yourself, mentally and emotionally. It's a ton of stress to put something out that you've worked so hard on and have it trashed on, or criticized. I get that.

You've got a lot of potential and you're still young. At the end of the day, what we say don't matter so long as you keep going, you take advice and you learn and you improve. So long as you're improving, you'll do fine.

But again, your choice, and it'll be respected regardless.
