Question First Single?

Here are three songs which I'll have featured on my album "The Letter."

I'm trying to decide which I should release as the first single.

Also bash if you don't like something about them (but please don't say anything about the autotune, I know it's there and I know at least half the people in the world hate it)

The two club beats are very nice. And the autotune is used to complement your voice but the rapping on the vocals is missing energy. Singing is nice but I would try to find someone to put verses in your songs. The only rapping that sounds half way decent is on All night and I'm pretty sure theyre some autotune on that. And def All Night should be your single...Its a nice club banger. Also all night has like a minute of silence at the end.

I liked "The Letter" the best but I don't think it's first single, prolly second. I like "All Night" as the first single if the silence is corrected. A minute of silence on the radio is not a good look. Nice work bro.

really like the vocal on the letter, good confident but intimate beleivable delivery.

The autotune also works best on the letter.

The other two, I agree with one of the previous comments, I dont think your voice is suited to style, it needs to have more attack and edge.

So my vote is for the letter, pulls you in the most and the vocal by far the best.

For the two rap songs, maybe ditch the autotune, try two vocals with radically different eq and compression, (one tinny, other normal or bassier).

The 'tinny' one can help with lyric intelligibility and give some edge, while the other balances it.

my 2 cents

Thanks for the comments guys, I agree with what a lot of you say. All Night is more of a first single song, but my style is really more of the love song type.

Here is another option for voting, more along the lines of the letter. I don't think I can modify the poll though so just say if you like it or not.
