I have to say, there is so much valuable information and tips in this video that I have already watched it 3 times in a row to fully internalize this treasure of valuable tips. I've spent so much money on courses and in the end the content wasn't even 10% of what half reveals here and in his other videos. I'm so excited about the branding video, because that's also an extremely important part.
This is really good, I’m kind of in a similar situation with an artist who I’m working with, who doesn’t really respond often. This really gave me some insight on being consistent with sending beats to the artist.
Not sure I’m qualified to speak on something I haven’t had success in. Aka I’m not a recording artist. Sure I’ve been around tons and I’ve seen what works vs what doesn’t. There’s alot of nuance. I’ll stick to what I can point to and say here’s proof it worked for me
Thank you soo much for the videos❤️ can you also do a video on the things that we should be aware while making deals after our song goes through, mistakes that we need to avoid and things? Thank you again :)
all these tips are good but you are missing the most important one and that is the music if your music isnt good no matter how much u post yourself online that wont get you your dream placements.... focus on the music first get so good at it where people hit u up for your samples/beats u don't have to flood prods dms sending the same dark piano loops thinking you'll get every single placement... thats my 2 cents get good at music = get placements most prods arent even good musicians to begin with....
@@halfwaySM well true but other prods seeing this will get the idea that thinking making your personal brand more important than the actual music itself is holding them back rather then when its time to go in the studio sessions where the real records are made it wont matter much rather than what skills u have/offer to make the record happen which goes back to my point..
What kinda holding me back is that im sometimes scared to send my stuff out to bigger people because if they think it sucks then its not gonna be good and im not super confident in my beats for some reason
@@halfwaySM i have been producing for 11 months but i just had a video hit 1.5m views on tiktok and i have alot if people saying my stuff is really fire
what do you think about sending the same beat to several, sometimes dozens of artists? has it ever happened that two or more artists want the same beat and both send back demos with the intention of dropping it ?
@@helloiamhuman1146 once in a blue moon two artists want to drop a song with the same beat. I wouldn’t worry about that. It’s hard enough to land records so holding beats/loop for artists or producers is usually a wash 95% of the time

Hi Half I was wondering if your program taught a little bit of music production as well as business obviously. I can make music I like, but I dont think its release worthy. Can you help to get me there or is it mostly about business? Your stuff has to be somewhat tolerable to get into the business so I was curious
if it’s not release worthy, keep working on it until you feel comfortable releasing it. Try making music you would like if someone else made it. If that’s too difficult, share it with people who will give you their honest opinion and aren’t just trying to be nice. that’s how you can improve, and so will your chances of receiving business
I don’t discuss anything production wise. I have guest speakers during the live calls who might talk about it. There’s so much information out there already. Go watch one of my guys videos @stevenshaefferr on RUclips. He breaks down music a lot

@@thatboimarco9351 To me that’s not even worth mentioning because if your music sucks it sucks. So these videos aren’t for those people

@@me2609 praise be the lord 🙏🙏
Faxs we need a video on "here's why you're beats are trash" 😭😭
I’m just not good enough yet, which is to be expected, only one year in.
@@bourne8636 that’s when this shit is the most fun. Enjoy the early days. Keep it going
What kinda holding me back is that im sometimes scared to send my stuff out to bigger people because if they think it sucks then its not gonna be good and im not super confident in my beats for some reason
How long you been at it?
@@halfwaySM i have been producing for 11 months but i just had a video hit 1.5m views on tiktok and i have alot if people saying my stuff is really fire
@@truecrimsons6962 then there you go. That year mark is usually when people start getting noticeably better. Keep it up
what do you think about sending the same beat to several, sometimes dozens of artists? has it ever happened that two or more artists want the same beat and both send back demos with the intention of dropping it ?
that means your beat is good, and you can choose who you want to see on the beat:)
