i'd check to see if there's something wrong with your compressor... 35ms is pretty slow for vocals IMO. i don't usually hear the highend get muted until around 5-10ms or so... (depends on the unit or plugin)

fwiw, on a 1176, i set the attack to about 5 and release in between 6-7. ratio at 4. and get the needle movin'... seems to work for most rap artists.
