How's my Hip-Hop Mix?

Hey, everyone! This is a song I wrote about 3 years ago and FINALLY decided to record the final cut of the vocals today (or mine, at least). I did all the mixing and final FX today, too.
I want to see what you guys think of the mixing job I've done here- I personally don't think it's too shabby, but it's better to give some fresh ears a listen.

    Very cool. Lots of fun. Sounds pretty good.

    Ha, thanks a bunch for the feedback, everyone!! I'll be releasing a music video for this song, probably this upcoming Monday, and there will soon be an 'extended studio cut' of the song, so stay tuned!!

    Also, should I do more of these parodical character songs? I have a YouTube channel on which I do an off-and-on web show, but I kinda gave it up recently cuz I'm not too popular. Maybe music videos will be my spring board to a wider viewership?

    Not a genre i'm really into, but i thought this was really entertaining. The mix sounds great on my speakers.
