Heya,
 
You just bought the AKG K701 for rap. You may not like that. It's not going to be great for mixing. It's good for classical though. It has a huge artificial sound stage. It will not be good for mixing due to that. Also, it's not a sensitive headphone, you will need a decent amplifier to power it. It will not sound very good without an amp. It will sound hallow and lifeless. With an amplifier, the bass really comes to life in them. You need a considerable amp too. Onboard sound cards won't cut it here.
 
It's a good headphone. But you likely got the wrong headphone for your current setup and for your goals.
 
Very best,
