i was trying to do ragtime and kind of went overboard 
i want to add old timey vocals to this but first does it have potential

me likey this is a jammer
- snaps feel kinda loud (especially with the kicks ~1:22)
- beginning feels kinda repetitive (i know it literally is the same thing repeated but maybe effects can add some variation? i don't have anything particular in mind though)

The track feels like an electro-swing Stray Cat Strut. In that jazz style a lot of the time you'll get strong beats on the 2 and 4.
Try taking out the first and third snap from the snap pattern.
Also I dunno if LMMS (super new here lol) has a "swing" or "shuffle" function for MIDI, but if it does you can try to add it to the lead part to give it a laid back feel.
Looking forward to hearing where you go with it!

no swing function to my knowledge but i often do that manually no problem, will work on it
along with tweaking the beat i kind of want to add more stuff in the background? maybe subtle brass or something

The gradual or not so gradual speed up was done marvelously.
