Snare is buried in the mix. Chorus hook initially struck me as nothing special, but repeat listens proved me wrong, as I went from wanting to skip this to being okay with it. The use of the derogatory term "wetback" in the lyrics is jarring, and was probably a key reason why this was initially in my bottom 4, but the lyric makes sense within the perspective of the first narrator. Melody, and structure is mostly boring with the drop-out and build-up from 2:16 to 2:30 as one exception. Lead vocal is having pitch issues throughout, leaning towards being sharp. Guest vocal is good. Repeat listens absolutely saved this one from the bottom of my list.

This is an ambitious track, the samples set a really intriguing mood and I like that you went to the effort to get multiple guests, all of whom do good work. The lyrics use some jarring language, but now that you've posted your lyrics I can see where you're coming from and this is a pretty bold take on the challenge - albeit an uncomfortable one. It took a few listens for this to sink in as it's quite a moody, low-key track, but it's definitely one that I enjoyed revisiting and that kept growing on me over time.

Vocal intonation. I like the chorus hook, catchy. I really wanted some kind of treatment to the vocals, or at least one of the vocals, to emphasize the idea of feeling distance, but actually my real thought is that vocals are both mixed so hot. I promise you, I can hear all the detail in the vocals without them blasting at me. It may also be the compression that I’m hearing. The song does have some pretty great moments in the choruses, and a nice overall feel.
