Why Self-Produced Rap Can Work

Why Self-Produced Rap Can Work

There’s a great feature article in Northwest Asian Weekly about a Seattle-based rap duo that’s making a name for itself, complete with self-produced music. Saturday Morning Cartoon features the rap beats – mostly improvised – of John Alvis and Max Youn.

Focus On Hip-Hop

First off, both of these guys have day jobs. They self-produce their rap beats because it’s what they like to do. They’re playing in small clubs around Seattle right now and put on 25 live performances last year, but they’ve still had enough time to put together their first 19-track album, Cereal Box Superheroes. They’ve also put together a collection of mixtapes, which showcase their improvisational style.

They don’t have a major label – or even a minor one – backing them up. They sell their music right from their Web site. If you’re thinking that you can do this, you’re right.

Self-produced music is a growing segment of the music marketplace. Individual musicians and groups avoid the whole music label conundrum simply by eliminating the label altogether. You can produce your own rap beats, hip hop music or whatever genre you like using tools that are readily available.

Sonic Producer is one great tool you should know about if you’re interested in producing your own music. With Sonic Producer, which is available for both the Mac and PC, you can record your own songs, use any of the thousands of royalty-free samples in your music and make your own mixtapes or albums.

You’ll get a professional sounding recording on a 16-track software mixer. If you’re new to the music production scene, Sonic Producer also comes with great video tutorials to help you learn how to use the software and put together great rap beats!

Don’t wait to be discovered to start your musical career. With Sonic Producer, you can self-produce your own music and begin building your brand. Sonic Producer enables you to export your music to popular music file formats. You can share your beats easily with friends and fans, make your music available online or even sell your songs through iTunes or another delivery site.

You don’t need to buy any additional mixing equipment. Use the recording equipment you have on hand, or get yourself set up with a basic setup. Sonic Producer will give you great sounding recordings and a huge sample library to start out with. There’s nothing quite like it on the market. If you’re ready to start self-producing your own music, download your copy of Sonic Producer and make music today!

The Not-So-Secret Lives Of Rap Music Stars

The Not-So-Secret Lives Of Rap Music Stars

Last week, I wrote about the most financially successful rap beat music stars, and not surprisingly, Eminem – who has sold more records than any other rapper – isn’t anywhere near the top of the list. The top money-makers in rap music do make money on rap, to be sure, but they make more money on other semi-related business ventures and not-at-all related product endorsements.

The Bigger Picture Is Part of The Bigger Picture

Making music represents only part of the potential of a rap music star. In addition to making music, more than one rapper has found the movie and television industries to be quite welcoming to rappers, and the move to the big (or small) screen is an easy transition. Ice-T is probably one of the most successful rap artists to cross-over to a highly successful movie and television career.

Jay-Z makes much of his money on related industries, including music production for other rappers – both established and up-and-coming – and the nightclub scene. His 40/40 chain is currently a club-set darling.

T.I. has been as successful as neither Jay-Z nor Ice-T but he’s managed to parlay a rap music career that began with a shaky start and has been interrupted twice by stints in prison into a blossoming movie and television career. TI now says that he wants to spend more time on acting than on making music, although the Grammy-winning artist has had some undeniable success with his music career of late.

TI recently released a mixtape, for which he was criticized. He didn’t spend too much time worrying about the fury over the mixtape release, saying essentially that his decision to go with a mixtape format for some of his work is strictly business. Many of the dozens of songs he wrote while in prison or under house arrest would never make it to an album, and he wanted to get the songs out to his fans.

TI’s approach is consistent with many new rappers who care less about how they get their music out than simply getting the music out. Self-publishing is bigger than big in the rap music world and there’s no reason to hold onto something that might have only limited commercial appeal.

New rappers can self-produce music using tools like Sonic Producer. Sonic Producer is a software package that can run on either the PC or a Macintosh and actually includes video tutorials that show you how to put together great beats on your own. You end up with a professional-sounding tape that you can keep to yourself, share with friends or self-publish on outlets like iTunes!

Domestic Violence Controversy Dogs Eminem's "Love The Way You Lie" Rap SingleEminem is no stranger to controversy. In fact, he often seeks it – and the resulting publicity – to help promote his music. His latest foray in to “things that make you go hmmmm…” is the rap beat video for “Love The Way You Lie”, a single with Rihanna from Eminem’s latest album, Recovery.

Rap Music Video Features Domestic Violence

“Love The Way You Lie” is a long-running look at a violent relationship, and the interplay between people who abuse each other while at the same time professing their love and promising never to hurt each other. The subject of the song isn’t so controversial; people engage in violent love relationships all the time. What’s controversial about the video is that the video depicts a fight between the artists, followed by a passionate kiss. Reconciliation is implied in the video, and domestic violence advocates say that the video sends the wrong message to viewers and glamorizes violence in the context of a love relationship.

Rihanna has just seemingly closed a domestic-violence tinged chapter in her life with music artist Chris Brown, which adds a certain irony to the video. Despite the fact that violence is a relatively common occurrence in domestic relationships, the controversy seems to be suiting Eminem well. Recovery is at the top of the rap music charts again this week for the eighth straight week.

The video also underscores the ease with which music can send a message. Rap music is especially good at this because it relies much more heavily on lyrics and less on music than other genres. Its reliance on lyrics also means that anyone with a good rap sense can catch a break relatively easily.

New tools are available on the market to help artists self-produce professional sounding songs. Sonic Producer, for example, is available for both the Macintosh and PC platforms and contains thousands of royalty-free samples. The resulting products are professional sounding and ready for export to MP3. Self-producers can share their music, use it as background for live performances and even sell their own music on iTunes!

Sonic Producer includes video tutorials that demonstrate how to use the software and more importantly, how to create the sounds that people want to hear. There are few music self-production products on the market that are as complete as Sonic Producer. Download a copy and try it for yourself! See for yourself how easy it can be to create and publish your own music!
