Awesome stuff. Sync is great for hip hop, I work with two publishers (uk/us) seems tons of briefs for sports MLB, NFL etc I’m still getting royalties from stuff in 2020, there’s a huge need for it. All the best!
This video will be off great value to me, thank you! Would love to see more on those Types of topics (not that this wasn’t alot already). Thanks once again!
1:12 reminds me of Maslow’s Hierarchy of Needs. Would this be where you gained the inspiration? Yo Pain, I can’t help but come to your videos cause you DO (and I admit like most won’t) inform on topics and backend music business like no other. My only criticism is that your energy just seems as fed up with this industry as I am every time I check on you. Difference is, you’ve had more success. With that being said, with as happy as you seem, this music shyt almost doesn’t even seem worth it when it comes from OG’s like you. I’d love to have a civil conversation with you. At least to bridge the gap between folks like you with little folks like me looking for a door. Btw, that intro definitely showed your gratitude and after years of looking for reasons to fwy, that sealed it. Love.
Thank you. I’m not fed up with the industry at all; if anything, I’m fed up with TH-cam. I talk about this in videos pretty often. Respectfully, what doesn’t help is when people leave comments where they tell me about my ‘energy’ but they dont know me on an energetic level. It’s not just your comment- it’s a cumulative effect, especially since I get virtually nothing in return for making these videos, I’m just trying to be helpful. It sours the whole experience tbh 🤷🏽 Thank you for watching 🙏🏽
As a rapper, I would be searching for ‘exclusive beats’ only on beatstars, or $30 and below beat leases. Your $32 a lease is less attractive than say $25-$29.99 a lease. I think $32 is odd, I would go to $30 or go up to $35. But if you list a beat at say $62 I’m not ever gonna purchase it. I want the numbers to be rounded up or down, not just somewhere in the middle. I also never ever search for specific rapper type beats. Idk why any producer would use a rapper’s name in their title because that’s not how I ever search for beats. I search for ‘no melody type beats’ or sad emo type beat, but never do I search by the rapper’s name. In my honest opinion, ‘sad emo type beat’ would get much more hits or views than say ‘lil peep type beat’ cuz I never search for those even if I want similar sounding type beats it’s just not on my mind to look up certain artists by name but more by the genre they are in. I guess it’s like searching for a diddy type beat as opposed to a bad boy type beat. I just wanted to let you know as someone who tries to rap/produce/dj and also just a viewer of your content, this is how I search for beats and I look up instrumentals every day, the ones that stick out that I will remember are the beats that have their own title like “Streetlights” or “Diss track freestyle instrumental” again, it wouldn’t make any difference to add lil uzi in the title, just the type of beat it is like diss track or freestyle etc. I hope this helps someone with how they should go about listing their tracks online. ❤ also always include a link don’t just have an IG name listed and say contact me there. I really hate that. A lot of us don’t even want to use IG at all. I also never want to purchase beats thru IG or PayPal or anything else but a certain beat website. Asking anyone to cash app you and you’ll email them beats that’s not protecting me on my end that I will even receive any beats ❤
Also I think you need to stream live and do live chats and cook ups that’s something you don’t currently offer or do. Streaming is the future it always has been.
@@drewblanche Thanks for the insight bro. I've thought that exactly everything you said would make more sense than the way people do it now. I've had beats on my hard drive for too long and now I'm getting my shit together and starting to sell them so I will take all this into account once it's all set up
This is similar to the using/not using samples debate, I think at the end of the day some people look up beats based off of descriptive terms and some do look up type beats I’ve seen both and been a rapper/been around them for going on 15 years.
@@drewblanche how much would you expect to pay for a beat you actually use on a release without getting sued as opposed to renting a beat, have you missed a few zeros on your estimate of an ‘’exclusive’’ deliberately? Sorry if I’m missing the point or the humour🤔
I am a bit confused about this term beat making. Does it mean making just drumbeats or does it also involve other musical instruments? I mean is it like a full-fledged musical idea ?
@@DJPain1 Since the Producer retains the underlying composition, isn’t it possible to keep your instrumental track as a playlist/mixtape and still sell the rights to the derivative Master as a separate composition without any issues?
@@DJPain1 But a “Master” in modern music is the file you export from your Daw (WAV/MP3). Since the producer retains the full rights to their original composition in a standard contract, they can make another Master at will merely by exporting the session again, as its not the file/sound recording that was transferred to the Artist. Technically the recording derived from the Artist and the Producer is a derivative work which isn’t granting the rights to the original composition itself, but is creating a new intellectual property which combines the Artist and Producers contributions. Isn’t it possible then to release the instrumentals themselves, if the producers retain full rights to the composition? Technically we can just “print” a new Master at will from the session file, and its within the rights of the Producer to exploit their original composition and Produce new Masters of that instrumental as long as they retain the rights to the composition. I understand that for some situations one might want to remove the track if a label buys out the original composition, but otherwise it’s within the Producers rights based on the beatstars standard contract where the Producer retains the original composition.
