😂😂😂 rappers are irritating all over the world. One dude told me he wanted a custom exclusive FREE beat that i couldn’t upload to spotify or youtube. He was going to pay me with exposure from his 3 monthly listeners.

I was literally taking notes in Google Sheets when you said how important tracking was ha.

This video is stellar, thank you for the value.

Our stories are running a bit in reverse (although I too lost some hearing when I was younger and making music).

Recently had my Amazon business collapse (mostly my own doing) and returning to music production.

I'm a decade removed so I have no clue what today's scene is like, but these are phenomenal fundamentals that if applied will create results (long as the music isn't trash).

Thank you for making this.

First video on beat selling that made sense. Thanks Adam, can u do a whole short series like the whole foundation and how to set it up?

[AnnoDominiBeats]

Nice video! Thanks for the shout out 🙌

[creat-tc]

Made beats almost my whole life in private and never sold any coZ I wanted them to sound like so and so's beats. I wanted them to be perfect so they can not be rejected or criticized.my desire for perfection was the death of me. My advice is put ur self out there and practice ur craft stop comparing ur self to other people. Ur beats are not dat bad.just do it

Thank you so much for your insight. I did not know you were in the beats business. I became a true fan today, notification bell on. I am eager to apply this information. You confirmed my intuition and also provided new nuggets of knowledge.

The YouTube algorithm gods blessed me with this video and your knowledge and I cannot express the rejuvenated feeling I have towards music production again. This is hands down, one of the best vids on here regarding this subject. Subscribed 🤘

I'd love to watch an email lists Adam. This video was awesome! Please more videos like this 😊

[shane_spazz]

You are so right about that 45 minute beat selling quicker than the one that took a week or two...

[TheSabinCole]

Leasing a couple beats around that price range helped me out, just a couple sales but making progress!

[bounana]

so honest and straight to the point! great advice, i love it!

[wendyhardman]

I'd love to hear more about building an email list. Thanks for this info Adam! I hadn't thought of selling my instrumental pieces this way.

[Maxxbeats]

my first exclusive sale in 2013 was for a beat I called Crazy Dreams. It had weird production but I uploaded it anyway. It took 40 min to make and I sold it for $1600. Lesson learned. 1 man's trash is another man's cash.

[BarkingForBroccoliBG]

I know there is no audible difference in a $5, 000 beat lease and a $20 beat lease and only difference is the budget of the rapper buying it

[MadLucrativeNetwork]

Facts! Coming from a Grammy Winner, you’re spot on!

[Prod_Prxphecy]

But how do you message rappers and build your list? When you reach out to work with someone they expect it to be for free because you’re the one who reached out to THEM?

Just started my channel last week, had 4 free downloads that have been tagged. Made me happy thinking that someone actually downloaded it, you saying that those that download the free tagged ones actually come back and to buy the license?
