Guide: Sell Rap Beats And USE Free Beats

By Delroy Wilkins


A quick look at the top music charts nowadays will tell you that in just a short number of years, hip hop has progressed from a simple trend to a legitimate music genre. More and more, people from all age brackets are aspiring to become the next hip hop star, much like the artists that have already made it big in the industry. Hip hop has two elements: the rapper and the beats. A rapper's task is to deliver the rap, but even the best rap cannot be complete if there are no beats. In the similar manner, even the best beats will remain blank unless lyrics are present.

The rapper is, of course, the one that dishes out the verses and the lyrics while beats provide the "spice" that will make people sway and nod their heads in response to the rap. These two elements are extremely important. Take one from the other and hip hop will become uninspiring and pointless.

If you are an aspiring hip hop artist, you may be wondering how you can create your own beats. If you ask most music producers, they will tell you that you cannot and will then proceed to offer you their own works that you can use for a price. While this may sound like a good idea, you should also know that you don't need a top-class studio with some state-of-the-art equipment and facilities in order to produce some awesome beats.

There are three options you have when it comes to selling your beats. Do you own a website? How many visitors do you get in a day? Is a high or low traffic site? You could make use of different internet tactics available, to increase your website's search rankings so as to invite more web traffic to your website.

Through this, you can then have different pages dedicated to simply advertising your beats. You can even let a few of them be sampled online.

The second method would be to use the websites as mentioned above, while the third option involves a mix of the above two options. It goes without saying that the better option would be to go with the third method of both selling your beats on host sites as well as your own.

Another method would be to use the websites mentioned above as a platform. Of course you can choose the third option and mix the two aforementioned methods. Making your own websites and making your presence felt in other sites can maximize the reach of your beats and allow them to spread out and be noticed by different people. And whether you choose to allow artists to retain all rights to your creations or keep them to yourself, the point is that you're free to make your own decisions regarding your music.
