[F4F] Childish Gambino/Macklemore beat!

Nasty beat man!! when the horn came in briefly stands out & sounds nice... My suggestion would be put a bit of reverb on the snare... other than the beat sounds perfect to me.
 
Like the emotion in the beat. Not really a fan of the drums.
Think it would have a lot more potential with some more bass seems like the kick is peak controlling it so it doesn't come through that much.
The plastic sax that comes in doesn't really fit. Maybe a bit more of a filter and some reverb would help bring that out. Or even layer up and octave or with a similar sound.
Keep it up and thanks for the feed.
 
The variations in this beat keep it interesting and I like the beat up until the 2.20 mark... I just don't really like the trumpet sound that comes in, I feel like it should be reaching higher notes if that makes sense? Also as the others said, I think the kicks could hit harder. Even if you leave the same kick for the first few bars but then beef it up when the hi hats come in? I dunno just a though! haha Other than that this is a great beat, I like the intro a lot.
