    No.

    Anyways, “bad mixes” are subjective to some degree but not completely. Someone might consider a song badly mixed if it’s guilty of the following.

    Unbalanced: say the low end is drowning out the high end, or vice versa. Maybe the mid-range is poking out too much so the track feels boxy or congested. Maybe there’s an instrument too loud or maybe it’s too low. Maybe there’s right stereo field feels too heavy compared to the left. Many ways a track can be unbalanced

    Resonance: You may find that specific frequencies resonate too loud, piercing your ear, causing a headache. You generally wanna cut that crap out

    Masking: when two tracks occupy a similar frequency range and lose definition/clarity when heard at the same time. A good mix makes room for every track to coexist peacefully and somewhat in its own space

    Bad dynamics: say a bass guitar is too loud on some notes, but soft on others. It’s hard to feel the full impact of the bass if it’s nearly mute some moments, or overbearing in other moments.

    Clipping: Much like everything else, this can be done for stylistic choices (See the guitar in Pink Matter by Frank for example.) but this is when a track is going past 0dbs, whats standard for all audio systems, so it distorts in a real nasty way.

    there are a multitude of ways mixing can be considered “bad” but these are the main ones that come to mind.

    Calm Down was appropriate imo because the beat was so goddamn repetitive and boring on that song to begin with

    A slight beat alteration was welcomed.

    It’s when you have a great beat and then you switch it to something worse to accommodate the artist like Fair Trade that it’s a problem.

    Based on the current discussions and available information, I don't see strong evidence proving that Playboi Carti's verse on Timeless is AI-generated. While some listeners have pointed out unusual vocal characteristics, Carti is known for using unconventional vocal techniques, distortion, and unique ad-libs, which could contribute to the speculation.

    If the verse were AI-generated, it would mark a significant shift in mainstream music production, and I’d expect some acknowledgment from those involved. However, without official confirmation, it’s more likely that Carti intentionally experimented with his vocal delivery rather than relying on AI.

    That said, AI-generated music is advancing rapidly, and the industry is becoming more secretive about its use—so I understand why people are questioning it.
