gimme tips and feedback on my first 2 songs!

my first one is a slow, creepy love song. it was inspired by two artists named dearjanuary and hellwept on soundcloud, who made a song called "sometime in january". it was also a bit inspired by feelz and about u by lil peep.

my second song is a song expressing my resentment towards life 😭 it's inspired by lil peep's style (especially with the vocals!!)

here are the links:

"my angel" - https://on.soundcloud.com/gsAWokwzQZiSbZuBKN

"fuck my life" - https://on.soundcloud.com/FfZZgEtEOfApjms39U

any and all feedback and tips are appreciated! i'm a 16 year old named elias, and i'm so excited to be making music. thank you all 🙃 🫶🏽

first song created at 16 using only Bandlab

i'm the same person who made the "16 with only a chromebook" post. update: i made my first song. the vibe is supposed to be a creepy love song. i was heavily inspired by these 3 songs:

somewhere in january by dearjanuary w/ hellwept (especially this one)

feelz by lil peep

about u by lil peep (this one for the sample)

i took "when the party's over" by billie eilish and reversed it, as well as also changing its pitch. this is my sample.

my friends aren't awake right now. i really wanna upload this to soundcloud, which is why i'm eager for someone to listen to it. i know people on reddit are harsh, so i'm prepared for the criticsm. all i wanna know is, do you think someone, even if it's not you, would listen to my song? i carry a lot of doubt, like i feel like i'm not cut out for this. but then again, this is my first song. i'm sure the feeling is normal.

thank you 🙃🫶🏽

update: i got too excited and posted it on soundcloud. the link: https://soundcloud.com/elias-spencer-2010/my-angel-prod-me

is getting a job as a teen even doable now??

title. i hear so much about how we are losing teen jobs and whatnot. i really wanna get a job after i get my GED (im 16), but i honestly feel so hopeless. almost ANY job is fine by me. i'm completely okay working fast food and retail, and anything else for that matter (hell, i'll even do farming, it's not my cup of tea but so long as i get paid). i just want a job that has a guaranteed paycheck. i feel like starting a business would solve the issue of not finding a job, but it's very hard to make a lot at first. is there any hope left? advice, tips, and words of encouragement would be very appreciated 🙃🙌🏽

do yall have different voices for different genders?

do some of yall just "switch" back and forth between voices, depending on what gender you feel like you are? i have a feminine voice, but i want to learn how to have a masc one. is it possible to keep 2 voices at once, and practice them easily (once you get used to it ofc)? i know obviously not everyone chooses to do this, this is directed to people who do 🙃🫶🏽

i want to be the boyfriend in the relationship

i'm a girl (i might be bigender idk im questioning). i like this girl, and i fantasize being her boyfriend 😭 she has a boyfriend, so obviously i'm not pursuing her. but like, i look like me in my fantasies. i'm definitely not butch, i'm the complete opposite. but yet, i would do all the "manly" things for her. like i said, i'm the boyfriend. i'm not sure if i'd feel this same way if i were to like a guy. in the past, no, i felt like the girlfriend. but i haven't liked a guy, or anyone, in a really long time. so i'm not sure. things could've changed. and also, until now, i haven't had a "true" crush on a girl (though i've had attraction for a long time). it's always been guys. but omg this girl, oooh. i wanna be her man. does anyone resonate? 😛 might delete this later. these are just my thoughts, and i can't find any post like this. gotta make my own ig 🤷🏽‍♀

to the ex-muslim girls, how do you wear clothes that your family would never approve of?

i'm tired of modesty 🫠 i want to wear revealing clothes, sorry not sorry 🤷🏽‍♀ i'm into aesthetics that revolve around dressing in a way that's rebellious. and trust me, i want to do that, but i just can't with my family knowing. any tips would be appreciated 😝
