Now before I start let me make something clear, I'm not a hater by nature. I've been producing beats, recording my own music since 2001. I realize how hard it can be and how easy it seems for some people. Now what some of you have a problem with is making the difference between promotion & spamming and quality over quantity. I can't even log into myspace anymore because of the fact that my inbox is spammed with 50+ messages & comments about some guy who's having a 'cant miss' beat sale or a 'must have' mixtape. Once I receive these spam mails I automatically never want to hear anything.
How can you expect someone to want to take the time out to listen to you, if you don't want to take the time to promote properly. Why would I want to receive invites to a show halfway across the country from a guy who sends me spam? Also you producers got me buggin. Y'all sell yourselves short on purpose. I seen dude online today screamin about $7 beats and 20 beats for $20. 1st...why would I want beats I know your sellin to everyone else. 2nd your beats are probably trash if your willing to give them up for next to nothing. 3rd I'm not about to give my credit card info to what seems like a bad scam. What you should be doing is making relationships with artists you want to sell beats to, focusing on fewer customers that are willing to pay more for quality than a lot of customers that'll pay a lot less for quantity.
I understand why & how come hiphop sucks and why there's so many more rappers out now. The internet has made recording music so easy. Cats bootlegg a program, buy a cheap mic, buy some cheap beats and bam! Now your a professional right? WRONG! Now your a fuckin tool. 90% of rap online is garbage. These same cats act like they're fuckin veterans when they've only been spittin for 3 months. Shit drives me crazy.
I'm off this for now. In my next post I might put some of y'all crabs on blast.
