Is music industry a good income?
I'm starting to learn how to make beats/music.
Got a degree in poetry and /lit/
Got a unique style of clothes/rap.
I think I'm good to go, I'm keeping learning but where do I find people who can help me?

Explain how its unique, degree doesn't matter if you end up producing the same drowned out shit thats on the market now.

As I said its unique I'm not going to tell you what kind of unique but it is

As long as your beat doesn't overpower your voice or lyrics. I'd like to hear something that doesn't have about 40 obscure references that are ill placed and mean nothing. Something that relates to all of us and forms a coherent and flowing story or theme. Finally having word play and lyrical ability above the 4th grader trash we have now. Something like that I'd buy in a heart beat, anything that sounds like G Easy i wont even look at it.

>Starting to learn how to make beats
What daw do you use? Have you made anything yet? Do you post on SoundCloud or similar places?
You gotta start either selling yourself or nabbing gigs
Also do yourself a favor and actually learn an instrument

Sorry anon but if you care about this you're probably not a real musician either and your advice is worthless.

What? I was simply curious about which OP uses, you gotta make beats with something
He said he recently started so I want to know what he has to work with and how long he's been playing around with that sort of thing

This is the most retarded post I've ever read
Music doesn't make an income. Only connections make an income in this industry. Don't have connections? Keep your shit on soundcloud and get a real job.

the internet has utterly decimated the profit margins on selling music .
ofc there is still a bit of money to be made, mainly off really stupid 14 year old girls. but thats about it.
its really more of a mass marketing, distribution and infrastructure play than anything else at this point, not really a game any body with any desire to make money should get into . there are far easier opportunities. unless you get incredibly lucky, have a huge bankroll or are willing to whore yourself i guess.

Well, what has he done for Hip Hop? Nothing. Not gonna lie, I enjoy some of his music.
