Dont sing through or speak through your nose… you sound nasally you need to project using your diaphragm.

you need to work on flowing… not making weird raises in your tone to show rhyming let the snare carry the beat and hit your hymns on that part the best example of this i can give you is J cole and jay z they have the style that i think would fit you more… until you learn mic presence or get a better mic. good luck ash.

I liked this. 

Had its major positives and negatives, but i'm assuming you're new to audio/don't quite have the equipment, like myself, so I understand where you're coming from. 

First off, I liked the hook, the flow, and the feeling behind it. I liked that your voice, when on key, was quite bluesy, like an Amy Winehouse feel, which isn't the direction naturally for most girls, so props for that. 

The bits that have to be addressed.. Firstly, the nasal thing, which has been mentioned. I can tell that you haven't just got a nasally voice that can't be helped, cos some of the chorus was clear. It's just a case of opening your mouth, working your diaphragm and making sure you take decent breath. And like I said, I struggle with audio, so its not the case of me lecturing. I just have a lot of voice training in acting, and there's stuff you can do to help. 

Before you record, do some tongue twisters, starting off slow, then getting faster, trying to keep your sound clear and precise. It's also important to 'bounce' the diaphragm. Before a performance, I jump up and down, with my body completely loose, and let out a 'HA', right from the pit of my stomach every time I hit the ground. You'll notice the freedom vocally that you reveal with practice like that. 

Well done.

Ok, so I'm saying this assuming you are serious and not trolling...

Based on this audio, you seem to be a diamond in the rough. I mean, this is way better than your other audio and I see tons of potential with this style. So let's start with what needs work...

Your tone and vocal stylings... As pointed out, too nasally and trying to do too much vocal styling. Also, without much experience, accapela is not a good idea. You're out of tune in some areas and perfect pitch in others.

If you keep singing this over and over tho, you be able to find the right key and vocal stylings to use. Practice indeed makes perfect. You have a really nice voice and the singing/rapping combo can work well. If you've ever heard Karmin before, Amy from that band has mad skills at it even if you don't respect the pop appeal. She's what Ke$ha wished she could do.

You would greatly benefit from a vocal coach and a mentor. If you're serious, take vocal lessons ASAP. If you had somebody with an interest in you and a knowledge of the biz on a starting level you could do some things in a few years. Vocal lessons first and foremost, you need to fine tune what you got. There's definitely a market for what you're trying to do here.

That's not actually you in your avatar tho, right?

I'd say with audio you gotta preform your lyrics. so the emotion you are trying to express when you write something down, is there when you record. its easier to do when you memorize your lyrics. cuz if you don't have your lyrics memorized you could end up messing up on saying the lyrics and have to record over n over and through that loss the original emotion cuz frustration...so yea it takes some acting skills. not act as in act like another person just act like you feel a certain way to get the best vocal recording for example a hype track I bump erry now n then is das efx - real hiphop (peterock remix) peep in and think to yourself how bland it would sound if they just read there lyrics listen to the energy they bring. another thing you could do is listen to acapellas of songs that have beats for them you hear theres a tone of emotion to go with the lyrics adding to the type of vibe they are trying to give off to the listener....hope this makes sense...now watch dis nigga grow arms---> Hug  swag
