I just made a song and when I payed the money for the lease, it took me like an hour to get it. I got so scared I got ripped off bruh I blew up this dude's twitter like WHERE THE HELL IS MY BEAT!!!!!!!!???!! And I got so embarrassed when he said that he didn't send the beat because he was out buying groceries.

You are appreciated boss, cant wait to check out your beats
From a rappers perspective: leases are bullshit. Unless you own a beat outright, the limits placed on leased beats prevent you from making any real money by limiting or dissallowing entirely things like use on spotify, apple music and youtube/ music videos (how most people consume music today). If you are a rapper do not waste money buying leases. Save your money up and take your time. Get PRO affiliated, and put out a 3 track bangin' EP that you own the masters for. And/or, learn to produce yourself. It will pay off more in the long run. Either way, moral of the story DO NOT EVER LEASE A BEAT. It costs too much for what you get. Side note to producers: when you're asking for 50% publishing and $500-$1K/ beat you are overestimating your worth. Even if you produced Lil' Whoevers last hit record understand your crowd and that most of your customer base can't pay $6K-$12K to producers to put out a project. Do your research and base your price and percentages on budgets and earning potentials rather than an arbitrary fixed price. I got no problem paying for beats or sharing publishing but understand your customer and your own worth. If your selling to an underground rapper asking for $100/ beat plus 50% publishing is fair to both parties. Asking for $200-$400 without publishing is also fair. If you are selling to a major label artist ask for that $500 or $1K upfront but also make getting a song writers fee in the way of royalties non-negoitable. Ask for a producers fee in the form of part of the publishing. You will eat alot more, and alot longer off that and it will give you stability and longevity.

Odin OfficialEmcee hey buddy it's currently September, and I know you made your post 4 months ago. I'm currently a undiscovered nobody rapper, my question to you is I plan on making 12 Songs per mixtape, I already have seven mixtapes done I just need to record and purchase the beats. I definitely agree with you about the beats being expensive. So you believe a artist should put together a 3 song EP with the Masters and go from there, that's dope. I just came across a producer who doesn't allow artist to put the song on tunecore or cdbaby for Non exclusive Beats, unless you purchase the exclusive for $300 you can do that

Hey..ODIN the great. how you doing. I'm in a different country. I have some pre made beats available for you, but I thought it's more invested if you tell me what kind of beats you really like for yourself. I want you to be in control of the general sound of preference in your music. I could make you something exclusive (2-3 days after your order/request) and give you all the legal rights and what not, for $230 on beatstars. It will be yours for good, whatever returns you will get further on, I won't ask. For $280, you will get 3 extra melody sequences that fit with the tempo and key of the beat with harmony, making it easier for your melodic crafting, but that also depends on your style. For $580, you will get all of the above, plus the stem, or project file, which is basically the framework of how the music was composed. The main pro of a stem (especially all my stems) is that you can make an infinite number if remixes of that beat/and your song. Imagine making a piano only version of the beat, or a guitar version. whatever you want, faster or slower, lower pitch or higher pitch. A stem offers more creative freedom and results, but with mine, you get a first hand blueprint to examine the common tricks and nuances that I add to melodies when I make beats, in case you also want to be a producer and make your own beats. But that is too soon to say. MEANTIME, you can try the cheaper basic ones at $45. If it also turns out that you don't like the exclusive that I make you, it will just end up as a $45 basic one, but then it will also be open for other people to try it (something most people like you don't like), and they may even use it better (you don't want that). Take a try at the $45 ones though (trust me you won't be totally disappointed, and use headphones please), and let me know. I'm at btendaim@gmail.com.

have you made a video talking about licensing/use agreements for producers to add to their beats? like after 5000 sales/plays/downloads what happens? or do producers get royalties if they leased a track and the song blows up? thanks again for making such great stuff man
I don’t know who disliked these videos . But thanks you for your words of wisdom .
This was good information to know
Great advice as always, Curtiss. Side note, I have beats on my page anyone can lease or get exclusive.

In a perfect world, that would be the ideal situation for those that don't have the spare 1,000+ bucks for "exclusives" and then once you get a decent following and streams and throw away money, you could start outsourcing your beats to other producers and stick to exclusives. There's a give and take to every aspect of this.

On free beats I just record rough draft and if I like it I usually get a lease for it
Another thing I look for is just making sure that I can use the beat on songs that I can stream and can get radio spins with. You'll be surprised by how many producers increase the lease price just so you can do those things. Also take into consideration that those leases usually last a year,so if you paid a $100 for a lease and that producer stays on top of you,expect him to hit you up by next year asking for $100 especially if you profiting good off that song

Mr. So Lowkey If your referring to unlimited usage as in performance,radio spins,and streams that's good. Some producers usually have an amount of profit that u would have to reach before renewing,but even if u do it like that or not that's a good price if it includes the track out,MP3,wav and if it's a good sounding quality beat. Just also be conscious on who your audience is because as a rapper myself I look for quality. And I paid $100+ in beats but only when I know it's good quality

Cheap quality beats ain't good, and good quality beats ain't cheap. If you really want to become a successful rapper, your gonna have to put time and money into it. Releasing songs with beats that you pulled off of KZread, it doesn't show how "rare" your music is. In my opinion, just pay for the exclusive. Even though it is very expensive in some cases, it's better to have that beat to yourself.

Hey.. ISABEL how you doing. I'm in a different country. I have some pre made beats available for you, but I thought it's more invested if you tell me what kind of beats you really like for yourself. I want you to be in control of the general sound of preference in your music. I could make you something exclusive (2-3 days after your order/request) and give you all the legal rights and what not, for $230 on beatstars. It will be yours for good, whatever returns you will get further on, I won't ask. For $280, you will get 3 extra melody sequences that fit with the tempo and key of the beat with harmony, making it easier for your melodic crafting, but that also depends on your style. For $580, you will get all of the above, plus the stem, or project file, which is basically the framework of how the music was composed. The main pro of a stem (especially all my stems) is that you can make an infinite number if remixes of that beat/and your song. Imagine making a piano only version of the beat, or a guitar version. whatever you want, faster or slower, lower pitch or higher pitch. A stem offers more creative freedom and results, but with mine, you get a first hand blueprint to examine the common tricks and nuances that I add to melodies when I make beats, in case you also want to be a producer and make your own beats. But that is too soon to say. MEANTIME, you can try the cheaper basic ones at $45. If it also turns out that you don't like the exclusive that I make you, it will just end up as a $45 basic one, but then it will also be open for other people to try it (something most people like you don't like), and they may even use it better (you don't want that). Take a try at the $45 ones though (trust me you won't be totally disappointed, and use headphones please), and let me know. I'm at btendaim@gmail.com.

Yo baby that's my man
Quick question... Say you have a beat leased out and someone comes along and buys the exclusive rights to the beat. Does the person who leased the beat get to keep the track still, or how does that work? BTW. Love what your doing brother, this is tied for my favorite channel with Busy Works Beats, you and Game offer so much knowledge, inspiration, motivation, music theory all that. I love it and i appreciate all you do!!

Thanks for the love! But, to answer your question, the people who previously leased the beat do get to keep the beat for a limited time. The time limit depends on the terms that are included within your particular license. However, The person who bought exclusive rights to the beat will be the last person that will be able to purchase it... Check out a video Curtiss did a while back answering your question here - kzread.info/dash/bejne/Y5mJyrZ6pZCqnMY.html. Hope that helps. -Rah'Lee (Team Curtiss King)

I'm wondering the same thing
Is there a way to tell if the beat you’re leasing has already been used and how many times it has? And if so, how well those songs have done?
💯💯💯💯
How do you leasing agreement should adapt to music being streamed opposed to bought or downloaded? Instead of 5,000 units sold should we track streams?
I got a tagless free for profit beat for you rappers🤗. I am going to release more free for profit beats this Christmas.⭐️
I just need a beat to post on social media for my books/ book illustration movie trailer which kind of beat should I get? (Vienna sausages on a toothpick 🤣)
I'm wondering. I'm a starting producer and have made some beats/songs that are pure instrumental and I'm working with a friend who's a rapper on an EP. BUT! I haven't uploaded my work on a streaming platform yet because I'm quite hesitant in when I should start uploading. Do I start uploading once I have gathered a couple of beats/songs? For example when the EP is done and I have about 5 instrumental songs? Or do I just start uploading right now with only a couple of really done instrumental songs? Edit: maybe I should mention that I'm in this stuff for the music, not the money.
you said you could sell up to 5,000 units if you buy a certain amount of rights. who do you sell your units too, and how do you sell the units?
i got a question man , if i purchase a beat can i monitieze it ? ( i mean you know earm money from youtube video )
Lessees, too right, at the very least you need to check the terms of the licensing agreement. You might be shocked at how restrictive they are. Do this before you wite a single word.
Assume :- I lease a beat... whatever $50, 60, 100, 150 option. Who will OWN the MASTER of the song THAT I WILL MAKE (solo artist and songwriter) with the said "leased" beat. Since legends like Russ and late great Nipsey Hussle emphasize so much on "owning your masters". That's the only question I wanna know in the whole licensing terms subject.
Hey Curtiss so I have a ? If a rapper/ singer purchase a beat and also goes record in a local professional studio. Do you feel giving the beat maker/ recording studio a shout out? And if so should you get a discount?
Im so worried that i dont know what my rights for the beat is for example 10000 Online Audio Streams does that mean i can only get 10000 plays on example spotify or soundcloud and if it gets over it gets taken down by the beatmaker.
I need beats for my fitness workouts. This, by far has been the most stressful part of starting this business.

When recording in the studio will the engineers need the track stems? I see all these fire beats I want but most stem leases or unlimited beats are high up there in price. $100+. I just want to get my music out at a professional level and just want to know what most artist do. Any help???

Yes without a tracked out beat there’s much you can’t do from what the bear maker already did. If you want to mix and master it then yes 100% to tracked out sessions.
Can an artist who leased a beat put it on anything other than soundcloud?
leasing a beat is like buying a video game you get to own and use it but not exclusively
should you content claim a video on youtube a dude who used your free for non-profit beat and blew up?
Stay woke rappers. You’re in a good place here

I only release music on KZread and SoundCloud wit a producers beat if it says I can use it for non profit which means no monetization cuz free promo is essential for building a fanbase and I never use a beat without purchasing a lease or distributing a song without a lease cuz most independent artists make that mistake and they either get sued or get they song take it down like get what I'm saying and if I use anybody's beat for non profit use I always give credit if you get what I mean Curtiss king

I agree artists should definitely be taking the time to read their licensing agreements because this is very common with licensing beats online. However, a producer is considered a writer and is completely valid in claiming 50% of the writers share as the writer of the actual musical composition.

@@GarGunnerTV Overstepping is dependent on both the beat and the artist. Sometimes a beat carries. Hard. Sometimes people come for the artist, but it normally beats that close off the deal for repeat listeners, first time purchasers, etc. But I get what you're saying fam.

Damn I didn't know that about the videos they can sue you over ah lease beat lol that's petty I respect the hustle me personally I rather just cop an exclusive because you should know what you about to do with the beat
can you tell me what do you do after you buy the beat if its mp3 ,waw, or stems because i dont understand this topic well
What about when they literally title the song “free beat”?

question if i buy a leas mp3 beat can i rap/sing over it and post it in youtube? (just audio)
what if you put out an EP on soundcloud for no money like you dont plan to make profit from it
youtube monetization. needs to be covered thouroughly. people need beats for vlogs and multiple reuses on youtube.
