Q1: How do I purhcase the correct rap beats or hip-hop beats to make a SMASH song?

A: This is a topic that could be talked about for days. Making a smash song is not as easy as it seems when you listen to the radio. There are some commonly used structures involved for both production (beats, etc.) and songwriting (lyrics, hooks, etc). These really vary depending on the type of songs you write (hip-hop vs. R&B vs. Pop). It is very useful to search for "songwriting" and educate yoursel on everything you can about the art. Invest time in yourself - this is your career!

The best place you can start right now is by listening to the radio or BET (even if you hate it) and studying the type of songs that gets played often. Also check out sites such as HipHopDX, AllHipHop.com and World Star HipHop. Listen to what’s on these sites and pay attention to how many listens each type of song gets. Listen for the types of reggae beats all the major artists choose, how they structure their tracks and how they write their songs. Next, when you’re browsing through pop beats to lease online choose instrumentals that you feel are the same to the most popular songs you’ve researched. But be careful. It’s important not to be a copy-cat. People will notice if you sounds like a copy-cat. Purchase instrumentals that are similar to things you hear on the radio, but have their own twist. Remember, you want to strive to do what’ll be hot tomorrow, not what’s hot today.

Some other things to think about when you are ready to lease pop instrumentals include the beat’s length - stay under four minutes at the absolute maximum. Make sure your reggae instrumentals get into the chorus quickly (no long drawn out intros), and make sure the beats and instrumentals you download are dynamic, and evolving (changes over time). Follow those tips and all the beats and instrumentals you choose for your single, album or mixtape will have hit-potential!
