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.

There are a lot of music producers nowadays who will tell aspiring hip hop artists that making their own beats is next to impossible. Afterwards, these producers will soon approach these young artists and attempt to sell them their own sample beats for a hefty price. The truth is, creating your own beats is easy. What you need is a simple laptop.

In another case, you could be on the other end of the spectrum trying to sell your beats to aspiring or established hip hop artists. So how exactly do you go about it? There are websites available that bring together beat makers as well as hip hop artists. The interface of these sites allows for easy navigation. It is also very direct for both the seller and the buyer.

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.
