Yeah aside from the obvious penis joke to be made you need more layers to your bassline. There's no real sub underneath the mid range part and well that's like the actual bass part of the bassline.

Other than what has been said above. Work more on your very first bar. The first downbeat needs everything, all the energy to be released. Work a little more on your call and response between basses.
Critical listening need developing and we can't help you on that. It needs years to develop inside you.

The absence of frequency can create anticipation and create a larger drop, I place a low pass filter on the master bus and sweep it up slightly during the build to remove the low frequencies, then drop it back down upon the impact into the drop. The fact that the sub is suddenly re introduced helps create a feeling of impact at the start of the drop.

Also, impact fx.
