is there any advice anyone can give me. i dont really wanna produce for anyone exclusively right now , but basically just make some rather quick money, but basically track out and render to mp3's or wavs and just be done. id rather lease out then sell outright. ANY FEEDBACK WELCOME ! !

if you can actually sell a beat, you'll be able to sell them for 20-50 bucks at a time. just don't put too much effort into them and don't put your name on them. only loss in that is your time. but you'll make money for that. make like a wack beat tape and pass it around as beats for sale (put water marks all over it that aren't your name) and people will hit you up wanting beats for an advertised 30-50 bucks. bong bong.

yeah i'm just saying make 20 beats that take you about 10 minutes each. call yourself "dj dundeal" and throw the water mark every 10 seconds saying "dj dundeal. fresh beats for you dumb asses" or whatever the fck you want. put your cell number on there and say the beats will cost 30-50 bucks for it to be theirs. they'll recieve a wav format with like 3 verses a chorus and a bridge or something. i dunno get creative. think about ways to improve this idea. in the end all you're saying is you want some fast cash in your pocket. this way you don't taint your name with generic beats, and it's pretty much great time/money ratio. i'd do it if i gave a shtt enough about money to go chase it. :D

THE TEN WACK COMMANDMENTS.
(1) Slap some schyt together, don't take much time or effort,
(2) Abuse keyboard presets!
(3) Always use 808 drum kits.
(4) Make Youtube video. Introduce yourself as "it's ya boy" or "You know how I do." Act thuggy!
(5) To increase video swagger, have a blunt lit and blow smoke by the MPC. Look very G, and DON'T smile!
(6) Create a Myspace page with a chicks ass or chest for your profile pic. Place a gun on your MPC too!
(7) Visit other womens pages, and slap your music player in their comments area.
(8) People like beats that are "fire", so say this word a lot in messages and video's. People believe anything.
(9) Have a buddy design a cd cover. Write your name in marker over the "verbatim" name.
(10) Get on peoples nerves by asking $10 for your beat cd when they walk out church/grocery and doctors offices.
**EXTRA CREDIT**
Get shot a few times. The bullet holes will make people a believer! Works amazingly well!
P.S As long as people can chant "Heeeey" over your beats, you will be #1! :)
