Smooth Rhythmic Track
This track has a nice flow to it. I like the drums and the choice of instruments. The drum beat matches up well. I like the lyrics. It has a relaxing feel but is also danceable. I like the second keyboard layer and it goes well with the song. I feel like this layer was hard to execute. The break in the middle is cool. Overall it's a nice track, my only recommendation would be to try singing louder and then lowering the volume. That is subjective though and it sounds good either way.

Very Nice
Really like this track. To me It has this late 90's vibe that i love and the lyrics are very relatable. Personally i would eq the beats so the vocals are more noticeable or double track the vocals.

Laid back funk music.
Jaden Sago is back with this laid back funk track. It´s a chilling track in pop style. This artist´s style remains me still of the disco eighties band Kool and the band. i Recomend Jaden to listen to Eearth wind and fire + Kool and the gang. But offcourse the track "what´s it Gonna Be" is funk music anno 2018 blended with electronica but it´s less funkie than other of the track I have listen to from this group. It´s more half funk and R´n´B music with a touch of electronica. A groovie and good low beat track.

Whats it Gonna Be? Jaden Sago has got soul. nice work.
Really enjoyed this song. Nice funk and soul vibe.... bordering on the neo-soul electronica genre, with a bit more of a traditional old school R&B groove. Nice song writing and lyrics. Very clean and well produced. The vocalist,Jaden I assume, is really pretty good. He needs to keep at it.. to really hit all perfectly, but really well done. This would be one of those tracks where having multiple vocal takes easily switched back and forth in you DAW would help you get that one perfect 'take' for the song. I know Logic Studio does it very well and easily. One of its strengths. Great work, good vocals, and if that was all one take... getting Logic or another DAW program that does that would really up your producing. Good Luck.

What's it gonna be
The overall vibe of the tune brings me back to the heydays of R&B more so than funk, but the melody and choice of instruments fit perfectly with the groove. I like the vocals for their smoothness and general good placement. Keep it up, good tune.

X-FUNK Reviews
Let me start off by saying first, my review of your song is strictly my opinion to CONSTRUCTIVELY criticize your song. Lyrically, I like them but I would like you to make sure when your telling your story it has a beginning, middle, and end format, Musically I would have like to have heard a change in the groove or tempo i.e. a bridge or some sort of modulation on the groove. The length could’ve been shorter as well maybe 3:10 - 3:21. Stay positive and KEEP WRITING!

What's it gonna be?
The Message was very interesting, very direct, and very real. It addresses long standing issues, adds community awareness to listeners who may perhaps provide prevention and hope of restoration.

Hypnotic...
Really nice start with short chords. Could have won not to use longer chords on the second part of intro. Like the voice! Some parts could have been cool with hard set auto tune just as an effect. Like the hard tone that comes a couple of times. The refrain could win to have a more driven arrangement, not much, but so you could feel the song was moving forward a little bit more. Missed additional vocal harmonies on some places, nice though with the octave vocal, but some harmonies would have lifted anymore. Overall, I like the song and the feeling! Good work!

not bad
the whole piece is a good piece, the harmonic turn is very nice, just like the harmony on the whole. if I can let you know that the voice is a bit detached from the music, I think you have to work on the voice adding a bit of reverb, compressor and make it so all with the music.this is my opinion

Do You Really Love Me
This R&B beat starts of this deep lounge composition that transitions rapidly to a standard verse/chorus structure. The breakdown is very sparse with just the vocal continuing the musical direction of the song. The song would benefit from some additional instruments being introduced after this point in order to differentiate the various parts of the song. The ending would then have some counter melodies. The vocal would also benefit from doubling the vocal track and using Melodyne to tighten up the execution of the vocals. All of the vocal tracks of studio recordings are highly processed. Good Luck!

Love the Groove
Hey, Jaden...I really dig the groove you got going on this track. Nice and smooth beat with the piano makes it easy to listen too. I was kind of expecting a Johnny Guitar Watson type of solo at the bridge or something to bring it out over the top. Overall, I liked it...either way. Keep up the great work and I wish you all the Good Luck in your Music Adventure here on Number One Music. Gizz, Bonham, Texas

Great groove!
You have achieved a great groove and nice mood, the mix needs work, don’t be shy with that bass, bring it up, you have a great drum sound but I barely fill the bass, you should add some backing vocals, some B3 organs or pads, this song could be a hit, but right now it looks like a demo. I think you can add the extra effort to turn it into something excelent, good luck my friend

Gonna Be......
WOW!!! Jaden, this is a really good track. The flow is undeniably grooving like I like it Bruh! Touch it with a little voice correction man and tighten up the vocals. I really think this has great potential to reach the r and b old school crowd. It has a steppers feel to it that can reach the Chicago, Baltimore crowd. Keep doing what you are doing man , the flow is AWESOME!

A Review of 'What's It Gonna Be'--'Jaden Sago'
The Buzz-like sound sounds cute. The drum kit fits in this Funk and Soul song though it needs dynamic adjustments. The voice sounds honest but needs some vocal lessons as the singing style seems a bit unprofessional. This simple piece can be enriched by a more complex melody and harmony. In total this is a memorable and mesmerising tune with its earthy musical quality.

This is a black record. I recognize the genre from electronic kit to the way my man is singing. Good comeback. I listened to 3 tracks tonight for sound reference. I would consider this a demo and not an official release, if the mix was a little tighter, I'd recommend it for immediate download. Bringing sexy back. Good work.

smooth, but vocal needs complete rework
the track is smooth, the singing is too rough out of tune not the best. I would probably not listen it again. The hi-hats are also too loud and not smoothened to the music. The baseline is nicely made though so I give it some points. So needs some work around it to keep it better harmonised. The voice a definite rework to be able to listen and not freak out, it supposed to be a chillout. But it has definitely a good potential.
