I’m mainly a rapper and just started making beats because I need them. And wow, beat making is much more time consuming than actually writing and recording. I would say honestly 3-5x as much time goes in to making beats than writing and recording depending on the track.
So respect to yall. It’s weird though because I’ve cooked up heat and I’ve only made 2 beats, but both are good enough that I could rap and release.
I’m really enjoying the music process

Honestly there is a lot more to producing than beat making. You have to manage your artists creative needs. Meet their minds. I assemble the beats, mix master, release and promote. That my friend is producing. There are a lot of Beatmakers who are just beat makers and producers who don't make beats.

So you understand why we don't want to give them all away for free, even though some rappers think that's how it should go? Welcome to the good side.

I think making beats and writing is the easiest part, mixing and mastering the track is the hardest part, especially if you use any live instruments.
