Super Music Producer : The End Of A Lucrative Era

By Aurelie Sparkson


In earlier 2000's, the music industry, principally the communities of hiphop and also rnb, noticed the beginning of what we now call the "super music producers", accounting for leaders: Dr. Dre, Timbaland, Rodney Jerkins and also The Neptunes.

What exactly is a "super producer"? So, the finest example of their difference with a "simple" producer will take on the demonstration of what we call a "supermodel" in fashion, for example Cindy Crawford, Claudia Schiffer or even Naomi Campbell. You know these popular models as well as everybody else and you can see them on all of the catwalks. In simple terms: safe values.

This was the same in the music sector: there were "big" producers, risk free, that led almost all the projects and were invited by the most well recognized singers or rappers. This was always easier for record labels to utilize a prestigious music producer in contrast to a novice. The recognized producer composed a multiple of award winning singles, in principle. Because at this time usually big music producers sold cd.

However, the music industry, after the beginning of the decade has changed. To begin with, consumers don't actually shop for disk now.

Consequently the record companies give a lot less budget for a project. And not surprisingly, record labels are not wishing to put in between $ 100 000 to $ 300 000 for one single beat, as was the case during the golden times of music producers. The cd do not sell and worldwide web starts to develop. To defeat not legal downloading of their artists, record companies develop or join with statutory download systems and try to enforce their visibility on this online scene, that has been running from their control for a long time.

But the rise of the internet in addition has permitted the visibility of numerous not known producers as good as, if not as good as, "Super Producers".

A lot of these producers have paying attention to the progressing of the Web, which has facilitated these to sell their beats online. That allows them to contact and also work with singers or rappers on a local scale as well as a world one. A producer from New york can try to sell beats to rappers in Japan. It is very now less complicated for them to gain a good repute to get a career. For the artists, this makes a great difference! They are able to buy beats online from home for their album, EP or perhaps mixtape for good prices; not at all those applied by the "super producers".

Record labels pay a particular attention to this modern sector. They buy beats online as well. And most recently we are able to observe that some internet producers are getting signed by majors.

The golden age of super producers such as the epoch of super models fades away slowly and gradually, giving way to this brand new business directed by producers who, usually, have practically nothing to envy to the "super producers".
