      Low-end feedback when he talks about his album/mate?! Don’t get me wrong, the mixing is really good imo too, but if I were to raise my hand for anything, it would be that. The way Thundercat dealt with it was exceptional though: i had the feeling he was trying to help the engineer single it out. Thoughts?
