Whilst this absolutely isn't my kind of thing, I always have respect for anyone who takes the mic, so to speak.
I quite like your voice too, it's not a classic singing voice, but give me a vocalist with character any day over some music school wailer. So, some constructive thoughts...
The vocal sounds really muffled. To my ears it's because;
1. It's mixed too low! (duh!) Took me years to have the confidence to put my crooning out front. Don't be afraid...
2. There's not enough top end to it..try a boost at around 10k - any lower and you'll emphasize the sibilance.
3. there's too much mud..mebbe a wideband cut at around 250-400, and get rid of everything below 70hz
4. You're fighting the other elements in the mix - try and pan these out a bit and cut a little in the mids to make room for the vocals
5. There seems to be a lot of effects going on on the vocal - which is fine but the main vocal needs to cut through more.
Anyhow, keep going!

Ditto on the tips. The listener should be able to understand the words or at the minimum, the hook if there is one.
