Leasing beats has been around for quite awhile. I actually remember when I first got into the beat selling industry almost 20 years ago, that people were leasing them back then, and it still holds true today. In fact, it seems that it's even more dominant now than it was 2 decades ago, as more producers are on the market selling beats, and more options are being provided to artists in terms of leases. So why is leasing beats a better way to go? Why should anyone really worry about leasing to begin with, why not just use them for free? I mean, what's wrong with that option anyway?
For one, using beats for free isn't a problem, as long as you have permission from the producer or beatmaker to use them for free. However, if you planned on using free beats without consent of the producer who created it, you can be setting yourself up for a world ...

OpiaMusic Stands Up For You and Your Originality As a Music Artist
It's a shame when I think about the changes that have happened, as a matter of my opinion anyway, with music today and the originality factor.

Cheap concert tickets... sure, the concept of cheap is great, but do you actually find concert tickets anymore that are really lower in price? Or do you go into your pockets ready to buy that pass to a great show or game, only to then realize afterwards... "did I REALLY spend That MUCH??" Have you ever felt that way after a concert or game? I know I have. And why do these things cost so much? Why aren't there cheap concert tickets out there?
Well, one of the main reasons you probably don't really find cheap concert tickets, is that there are tons of fees slapped on them. You never really know what the fees are for, they're always deemed as "administration fees", so that can mean anything. And they always seem to climb up more and more, year after year. That makes less people wanting to go to concerts and other events, especially with the recession that we're ... >>Read The Full Article Here...

Beats To Music - Turning Beats You Buy Into Great Music
Beats to music and how to create music out of them is a matter of coming up with something fitting and powerful to powerful hip hop beats and rap instrumentals, or any type of beat or instrumental for that matter. Too often, musical concepts are thought of, hot lyrics are created at the tip of a pencil to paper, and inspiring song lyrics are written, but they are usually written prior to feeling out a beat or instrumental to see if it works out at all to their benefit, or if it is a failed conception before it had a chance to hit the radio, mixtape, or album.
Turning beats to music is something that can be done with a bit more ease, as long as you allow yourself to be immersed into the hip hop instrumentals or R&B beats that you listen to first. Sometimes, you can create a very powerful music track or a ... >>Read The Full Article Here...

Music Marketing - Know All You Need To Market Your Music?
If you take a moment to sit back and think about it, there are lots, I mean LOTS of artists and producers in the music industry. And with as many artists that exist out there, whether they are singers or rappers of today, there are probably more than ten times as many songs existing today, from current day music trends, to the old school classics of yesterday that still stand strong. With so much talent out, do you think you know all you need to market your music? Do you know enough music marketing to push your music to the limits and beyond?
For you in this day and age, the situations are pretty fortunate.

With so much competition in the music industry, anyone can feel
overwhelmed and feel a sense of defeat in getting their music heard.
There's always someone new on the stage, on the airwaves, and online
that will give your music a run for its money. However, don't allow
yourself to feel defeated. It will all fall into place, and these next
few tips will help jump start or stimulate your presence to the music
industry.
First on the list is to be humble but confident. No
one likes someone who is so arrogant it makes them feel annoyed. And
where there are cocky musicians or music artists, there is bound to be a
decline in presence and people actually listening to their music.
Someone more humble who also inquires on thoughts of the fans and takes
constructive criticism well, will find that people will deal with them
more often. The confidence must be there though ... >>Read The Full Article Here...
For those that are trying to get themselves into the industry and feel that they can just push right into it, the reality check may be a rude awakening once you realize that it's not that easy at all. It's probably safe to say that most rap artists that are trying to get into the industry won't make it where they hoped and dreamed they would. But then, another thing to keep in mind is as the old saying goes... "you get out of it, what you put into it".
Keeping that in mind, people that are really trying to get into the industry have to really step their game up. I don't mean lyrical game so much as I mean hard work, dedication, and persistence. For every artist that thinks they're the greatest rapper out there, there are at least twenty more that are better than you. But the question is, have they put in the work that you have? If you haven't ...
Instagram has without question become a very valuable social media tool over the years. If you have an Instagram account, you can clearly see that not just random people use it for sharing a photo of what they had for dinner yesterday, but businesses and business people are using it too to showcase their products, to showcase their creations, their work, their music.
