Getting Cash

Ok Made some Tight beats, Transfered them how do I start seeing that cash can I go to a record company submit the beats as my demo.
How do I get Artist to Listen and maybe purchase my beats

There really isnt any particular way to get an artist to listen to your beats. Although, there are several methods that you can use. Try going to "open mic sessions" and hit up artists from there. Carry a beat CD with you cause you never know when someone might want one. Keep one in your car or something. Are you still in school? If so, play some beats for fellow classmates or lyricists @ school. Look for rhyme cyphers and let it be known that you got beats up for grabs. Many emcees will want "freebie" beats but you can negotiate a price as high or low as you want, its up to you. Throw some beats on soundclick if youd like. Theres cats on this forum that peep the "Your Music" section all the time, some may even want to purchase a beat. As far as shopping a beat to a record company goes, well thats a little bit of a harder process then showcasing a beat to artists. Ive never tried hitting up a record company before, so I have no first-hand experience on it. From what I hear, most labels dont even listen to unsolicited material, I heard that they just throw that ish away. But I dont know for sure myself. Im sure other cats on this forum have had experience with that, they'll most likely get back to you on that one. Well, thats my input on getting an artist to listen to your tracks, sorry I dont have too much 411 on shopping beats to a company. But, I hope that Ive helped you out a little bit. Peace

This might also help you out homie

^^^That's true. They will trash it if it comes in unsolicited. The first thing to do though is to make sure the tracks you are submitting have been sent out for copyright protection. You don't have to have your paperwork back yet just make sure it's already submitted. These labels will and do rip unsuspecting producers off on a regular. The next thing to do is to get you a package together ie..Press Kit telling a little about yourself so you can have something other than a CD to send them. What you need to do next is get a listing of the label(s) you wish to submit your work to. You'll more than likely get the secretary or intern when you call them. When you get them on the phone you need to state who you are or the name of your Production Company and that you would like to submit a package to them. Once they give you the ok to send it in your name is added to a list of expected(solicited) packages. Depending on the label some of them will call you and let you know that they have recieved your package. Most labels will send you some type of correspondance to let you know if they are interested or not in doing business with you. It's easier to get your beats in than it is getting an artists in Good Luck Navis.
