There is no mainstream there is no underground.. no one is slept on and no one is overrated...
Just 7 billion humans involved in millions of different micro-communities sharing similarities with one another.. no one is better than another.. we just exist.

You never meet someone who says “oh, that Kanye album? It was aaaaight”
No
It’s either “that shit was TRAAAASH!”
Or
“That album is fuckin incredible. A classic”
That’s what great art is. It doesn’t live down the middle like everyone else does. It lives on the edges only.

Producers who "just added drums and 808" aren't lazy..
Sample composer producers who want to collab aren't lazy..
They both equally responsible for the sum total of the song..
Drop the EGO and ARROGANCE and get over yourself on who's more important.
We're ALL IMPORTANT.

Let me keep it a BUCK for all my up coming rappers out there.
If I were you, I’d look for an up-coming Producer who’s willing to build a long term relationship & not charge much. It’s the BEST way to start building your own sound and nurturing a REAL chemistry. For BOTH people.

You didn’t JUST do the loop
You didn’t JUST add drums
You didn’t JUST play keys
You didn’t JUST add your vocal textures
You helped make this sh*t a reality which means you deserve a %
Why is this so hard to understand?
It’s simple. There’s no argument.

The phases of a music producer:
1. Copy stuff
2. Try stuff
3. Copy some more
4. Try stuff
5. Make complicated beats to impress other producers
6. Realize no one cares
7. Depression
8. Learn how to make beats with enough room for artists
9. Wow this kinda easy
10. Plaques 💿💿💿

Nobody wants to make 5 beats every day for many years and not get paid and maybe get 1 placement but the reality is that’s the criteria. That’s the cost of entry. If u not trynna pay that cost, no strategy is going to work.

The “producer” ear is way different than the “artist” ear it took me a long time to learn that shit.. they need to hear their own voice on the beat it’s not necessarily how GOOD the beat is.. if they can hear themself on it that’s step

If you’ve sold a beat for $50, you’re on your way to winning the game of happiness... that’s 5 hours of scrubbing toilets at $10/hour...
Now you just have to work your a$$ off to scale that. Scaling is the hard part, but not impossible.

Years 1-3: mimic other shit keep it simple
3-4: mimic other shit but accurately keep it simple

7-8: keep it simple
8-11: keep it simple
