Pinkie Twitch - WIP, Need some feedback.

I'm not too experienced with the audio sample community, and was wondering what techniques you generally use to help blend the show audio into a song. Right now all I've got is a little reverb and EQ.

I'm about at the part I'm going to introduce some kind of melody, probably from a pad of some sorts, so really any comments and/or criticism is greatly appreciated!

Uhm, I don't know what DAW you're using to program in, but usually the best way to integrate samples into a song is by cutting them up word-by-word (so you can integrate them in "perfect timing" with the song). FL Studio's FL Slicer divides samples into sub-samples automatically, I don't know anything about any other program. I think the "twitchy twitchy twitchy twitch" sample would mesh with the song a lot better if it flowed with the beat more idk.

Also, I think the reverb might actually make the vocal samples sound more distant/separate from the song, but it could just be me.

but yeah idk that much about vocal sampling really even, anyways. The instrumental is awesome so far, I love how it builds, it's mixed really nicely and I am excited to hear more!

Thanks for the tips in regards to timing up the audio. Definitely helped out! I also removed the majority of the reverb on the vocals so it blends a bit better with the song. Here's an update:
