How To Become A Successful: Producer, Rapper, Actor, etc.

[TheDestinyRebel]

This is real cool, thanks. And for the youtuber who asked if there is a million rappers globally, unfortunately it's true, but the reason why most will never see a check from it, is if could be broken sown to many factors like if wither your music is any good at all, false sense of reality(ego-tripping), great lyrics-shitty flow(vice-versa),failure to spread word about yourself, or your just copy n pasting some other rapper or your just not creative, and also failure to ride on music trends(con

[TalentSonBeats]

[2callofdutty]

thx man you help my out

[Toddity76]

very true. plus, if your in it for the right reason (ie, for the love of making music), there's no such thing as giving up. if i'm 60 years old and working a day job still, you bet your ass i'll be making some music when i get home. don't get me wrong, success is my goal. when your in it for the right reason, patience will be there too

[AbelzMusik]

@Toddity76 exactly! If you make music becuz u love doing it, then there shouldnt be a reason to give up.

[1022camron]

Thanks bruh.. I'm new to the game but this has been my dream for a long time.. I rap and I don't really have a studio or know ppl that has one. I have some equipment that I am using at home trying to do my own thing.. I really need a teacher of this game.. If any one or you can help me out message me or email me at lil.lay_qb2ahs@yahoo.com

[TUTinSPACE]

Thanks for the advice homie... The store analogy and starting a business is perfect... Respect... I am new to rapping .. I'll link you my first song when I am done! You might be one of my first customers haha.. Good looks man!

[Kill3rk1]

I just stumbled on this and Im not even into becoming a rapper, but this is really wise. Thanks for talking some sense into my head because Ive been djing and producing beats for so long I was about to give up on this entire music dream I have. Thanks to you I have found new hope and inspiration for making out there on my own. Respect greets from South Africa

[exitmarketingtt]

Hey dude you, have been through it all, and it is commendable that you care enough to help people, I love what you doing and spiritually you have a good heart and you try to be fear to the people you work with, you are going to be more successful than you are now, I am writting this and I dont know who you are, have never heard any of your beats, dont even know your name cause I am not even focusing on that, I was just focusing on the message....You have inspired me alot Thank you

[BilderbergGroupTV]

Wise words Sir, truly wise. But I think as a profession (particularly with advances in home music making environments), our business models have to adapt. N I think the way is to set one's price(s) based on: quality+ track record (same way its always been), PLUS the "rights the artist/label/woteva, wants to the Instrumental!!!!!!!!!" Hence why we (the Bilderberg Group) believe that the right model is a mixture of the "non-exclusive lease" model and "exclusive sale" (through placements) model.

[TheJak94]

I'm a 16 year old lad who wants to start rapping. I do spit on the mic when I'm the xbox an my mates say I'll be good if I don't copy things. There are lads who I know and talk to by me who are rappers and do music on YouTube but I'll feel like a d**k asking what they think. Any advice? Thanks

[Renegade728]

Know what he means by "selling beats" for $10 - $25... I understand selling full rights for much more... but if you are leasing beats... you can sell the same beat over and over again for that same $10 - $25 with you, as the producer, having full rights to still do whatever you want to do with those beats... Know the law... Know the business!

[MyRocketer]

Dam, i never though about that. Thanks for the info

[mrszcarter16]

Im a 16 yr old female tryna become a rapper .! Tryna learn what to spit about nd all that .! Hmu if yall got advice .!

I want to be the best at whatever im doing. I enjoy the grind, God Bless u

[Hardstones42]

[KaersonTV]

[MrNothinspecial]

Real Talk-Who exactly are you man and where you been all my life?(no homo)

[MARQUAN83]

That real talk bro, a real producer will get what they are worth, if you know what your beats could do for someone who could make millions or whatever to make that money back, A serious artist will pay you for the sound you are worth. Good to see I am not the only one talking about this. Also thanks for taking the time for doing these video's, F those who may have a different opionion, we all can't agree on everything but you never know.

man dope vid thanks for the knowledge..i fav this vid so i can see it when i get fusrtrated in the lab..nice work..

[FreshLookENT]

u are a smart dudes.. soon as i got my first mic all i did was record.. till i ran till some tech difficulties. im not even worried bout gettin on yet.. im just pacing.. but other niggas claim they artists and producers i know.. are never on it when its time. i hate people who act like rappin or producing is they passion but hardly ever do it. and when they do make a beat or record something they act like they did some big and then take a month off.. fuck that

[CTontheTRACK]

This is a great viedo to watch!

[OPTIMUStik]

ive already watched like 10 of ur videos. ur smart when it comes to this, bro

thanks for all the helpful tips!

[TstreetzBeatz]

I feel u 100% bro.. i make cold ass beats and friends and ppl at my school want free beats or want a beat for 30 dollars and i constantly refuse to do it. I really think that this video really made me keep on being patient and just helped me to keep doin what im doing, and thats stayin persistant, and striving to be a better producer..THANKS !!

[yellabwa]

real talk home slice

[urireofammolina]

i feel you man..

i bearly started making beats and i bearly made two and i think for them to be my first two beats they pretty good because i was patient and took my time to make sure that i got the kick or the clap or hat in the very same second that i wanted to be and you as a producer know that even half second on a missed kick clap or hat can make the entire beat suck..im bearly 15 years old..and also if yo gonna make good music is because you like doing it not because u trying to make sum$

[brazenbruklen]

hey ? is it stupid to give my my cd away .. i am not hurting for money so i jus give them away am i making a hugh mistake

[Jljujubeats]

I'm a producer, I know you're right about this.

[Chillerman345]

But thanks man and do it legendary bro

$howtim3

[alitheplayas]

@hottestproducer your right when you say thats just a FEW of them... not everyone makes $1000 a month buy selling beats for 1$0-25... just take Dames advice because he knows what he's talking about.... and yea dame thanks for the advice, i'll tell some of my friends who rap too watch this vid!

[DCtvee]

Thanks for the tips , real stufff broo .

[LaughingLeaf]

I agree. Consistency has been one of my keys for a lot of stuff im doin for youtube. I'm not saying I'm even near to successful on youtube, however i am happy where i got to. And it might be comparable to creatin beats.

[hottestproducer07]

Yo i feel you on hard work and patience tips but...this the 2nd time i seen you talk down on the whole "sellin beats for 10-25$" thing...you said "it will take the same amount of time to make 1000$ from selling beats for 10-25$ to sale 1 beat for 1000$"? lol homi you then you know nothing AT ALL about the leasing game then...theres SO MANY dudes averaing 1000+ A MONTH off selling beats for 10-25$ homi and this is a FACT...go to rocbattle . com and click on beat market...thats just a FEW of them.

[goldlion211]

@hottestproducer07 not true at all. If you got to rocbattle you will realize them dudes sold that many beats of a time year. So do the the math you make 5,000 a year off beats you making less then minimum wage. Go on rocbattle and ask them how many people are living well of their music very few will reply.

[moonsoonmenu]

THANKS! I favorited this because consistency is something I just figured out was a big thing for me, now I have 2 more key points I need to work on. Thanks a lot.

[CanadianRayLou]

Yo for real, Im feeling u.. U speak real talk Straight up.. But yo u never told me what u thought of my music, i need to know hit me bac in my in box and let me know, cause I know i got something atleast , But if im doing something wrong tell me what i should do aight duke much respect get at me easy ...
