OK you really mangled up the vocal so much the source is really inrecognisable, so I guess the copyright holders will have a really tough time with this one. Can stay for me 
Review:
The sound is really thin, a lot of high end and lack of bass, which makes me think you probably have your bass boosted on your system.
It's a very accessible and easy to digest track, with the commercial style singing and easy going breaks and melodies. The structure is good, made by the book, bit too predictable maybe.
Voice needs a bit more compression to make it more solid. Hihats can use more liveliness.
Don't know much more to say, if you fix the lack of low end and excessive high end it will be much better and that's easy to fix. I don't dig the style too much but that's personal. Way too commercial sounding imo, main stream hip hop with an accessible dnb beat on it. Give it to me raw

yeah what the chronic said....... sounds like you have a strong house backround, the transfer of that into dnb can be a bit hard to pass. without the vocals this track would be a little better. as it is right now i find myself unable to rate it because there are parts that hook me and parts that completely shit on drum n bass music. lose the cheese and build the grime and i will have respect but if you wanna be famous choose another style of music because we already have 'shy fx'

Damn! Some crazy sh*t. I agree with chron bout how 2 fix up the eqs + stuff but i'm definitely liking the originality and the funkiness.
The vocals remind me of the old mixed freestyle stuff and the structure is nice and keeps me interested. Alsos yeah some grime in that phunk would be nice
but hell yee its tite. would like 2 hear more from you.
just one thing thats really killin me ... what the fuck happened at 2min and 55 seconds??! get rid of that shite ... i thought my speakers fucked up or something.
tight!

dont like the Rnb wise truely false singing voice!!! synths sound lo fi too. there nice eq'd tough! much better after the break. you have to variate in the percusions. vocal s ok but play with delays and reverbs. vox a bit more quiet. Frustration texts!!!????? 
. you seem to have focused on the vocals mostly and neglect the rest a bit because vox are good eq'd too. the song doesnt rise enough. maybe also put a pitch shifter on male vocal at the end mix 50%= sounds wicked. far from finished but good idea's.
2,5/5 for now back to work 
cheers

man i dont really know what to say ecept um,m this is is really not what i expected to hear... its sounds really housy which was mentioned before, i dont like house mind you but it has a good rythem to it...
Ive said it once and ill say it again, i listen to jungle because there is a minimal use of vocals, at least the jungle i listen to, so i gotta say i didnt really like it. The vocals just kill it really..
try to bring your basss forward a little and maybe switch up your main rythem a little it gets repititious..
2/5

i like this track, but it wouldve been better without vocals, the bass is too hidden in the background and the vocals are wayyyy up front, use some diverse drum patterns, stuff like that. i like the hook, pretty catchy..................

Vocal is too loud. Sining is a bit out of key huh?
Rides too loud too.
Bass needs a boost.
Not really feeling the sampled leads..
Some transitions (like 2.55) need work
2.25/5

ok, i like the direction your going with the basis of this track.. although the vocals are complete rubbish, the drumline/bass sounds much too familiar(sampled?) seems like ive heard the same track before
ditch the crappy vocals and start from there...perhaps program your own drums?
other than that its not complete crap in my opinion
