If you are struggling to get your hip hop mixes to sound professional, than putting more time into the balance will actually be a good exercise for you. It focuses you away from the technicals and onto what you are feeling.
When you start to balance a Hip Hop song by no means should it be taken as, once the balance is done that's it. That's not really the point, the point is to get an idea of what your first initial thoughts, reactions and instincts are and then build off of that. Remember the balance can and will be altered through out the mix process
So if you get a good balance and then 4 hours into the mix, you realize that the kick drum isn't working and needs to be changed, allow yourself to make that change.
