Making Rap and Hip Hop Beats
It is very common among the amateur beat makers that they aim straight for the top position even before they have started knowing their field properly. This makes them commit mistakes and fall short of success in their career.
Although they think that they are capable of attaining great success in their career, but they still cannot accomplish their dreams.
The problem mainly lies in the quality of their production and their beats. Even though they have good melodies and great lyrics, they fail in good sound quality and unique and attention-catching beats.
They can make their beats successful by just realizing that the beats make an important part of their sounds. Hence as an amateur beat maker, you should search on the internet for all kinds of professional beats including hip hop beats, instrumental beats, jazz beats and Reggae beats etc. By listening to these beats, you can get a fair idea as to how these beats are made successfully and what makes them different.
You can then built upon your ideas and create your own beats based on that.
In order to choose what kind of beats you want to produce, you should be able to first realize what you intend to produce. You should know what kind of audience you would like to perform for, if you are planning to go for an independent label or just stick to the underground music, how far do you want to go, like do you want to become a popular artist all over the country or even the world, and whether you want to attain fame and fortune or the popularity. Hence, you should be clear in your mind about your vision.
However, the beats still make an important part of your career, whether you want to go public and popular or you want to stick to the underground scene. Your beats should be created in such a unique way that they attract the attention of your audience and keep them interested in your music. If you are planning to go for the pop then you should choose a slick or commercial beat.
If you are looking for a slow style, then you can consider the southern hiphop beats; however, if you are looking for the high energy beats, then you can use the Hyphy or Crunk.
Apart from your audience, the venue of your performance or your audience also makes a difference. Some people just look into the target venue and create their beats accordingly. You can get a clue from your audience’s preferences and interests, so it’s better that you analyze your audience before deciding about beat making. Once you know about your audience, then you can better decide whether you want to make the Rap beats or the hip hop beats.
While considering your audience, you should not give up your own preferences and the style. However, you should be able to make such beats that take into account both your and the audience’s preferences. You should also learn from your performance and try to make necessary changes that are required to make your beats better.
