Internet marketers vs. producers. 99% of these you won't see your favorite producers doing.
if being an internet marketer is the cost i have to pay to be able to make music every day as my job im doing it every time, of course i want to be on some metro boomin shit but at this point in my life that's not realistic for me! but hey, it's not for everyone, everyone has their own path man! There's no right answer, just tryna help
Because your favourite producers have probably been working since before these were even options 💀
@@prodkxviI hear you man also genuinely think that your placements came because of your raw talent, not just some marketing hustle
@@SKEEBOFFICIAL7 you're spot on. Many of the OGs were grinding before all these new-age tactics even became a thing. Music’s about expression, not just promotion. While getting the word out is important, diving deep into the craft, the philosophy behind the beats-that's where the real magic lies. We're creatives first, always should be. 💯
@@juliansvidal Hey, I respect your perspective! Just sharing my thoughts and experiences. Let’s keep the convo constructive and focus on the music. 🎶
Kxvi is one of the only producers that I actually feel is trying to help fr
my man thank you!!!

Legitimately a genuinely helpful video. I'm getting into the beat production game so your channel has been gold for me. Thanks bro
You def covered a great amount of things we think about daily as producers !! This was good great job on this one ☝️
KXVI is always willing to share points and stops on the map to building a successful music career without feeling threatened by those who use his advice. Good work KXVI.
Wow this is great advice, thank you for giving me more perspective on how to go about all of this!
Good video. Wise advice fr, we are listening!

W video. Thanks man
thanks g!
Dope video bro 🔥🔥🔥
🙏
This video is incredible man. great advice
YO!!! I just started doing music, it's been 1 year and this video motivates me a lot and I think it will help me to progress more and more. I'm just making my MIDI KIT and I wanted to ask you how much could I sell it for, I'm planning on having about 100-150 MIDI files.
For any content and social media uploads I'm not at the quality and speed I'd like to be. And have a lot to learn with mixing wise and work flow mostly. I've grown a ton in the last 3 years although not consistent with with work It's a step forward ig. Still working on being good.
Hell yea man that’s square one! Spend time getting good at producing before you worry about “making it”
you are dropping Jewels bro I will subsccribe
Could you do a video of you cooking up a beat and how you go about sending it out or choosing a specific artist
ill think about something like this!
lets go!
🙏
Great tips
Amazing video
As someone who has never seen your videos, and is most definitely not a producer.. yeah makes sense.
Bro what's your vocal chain on this video it's sound more cleaner than my songs 😂😂
What's the beat in the background? Light - gennaro here is a popping hit using this beat
don’t focus everything on promoting content what helped me was ditching social media for a few months to focus on actual good content to push
is true 🤩
when u sell a melody pack and a big song is made with a melody from the kit, do u have to delete the pack from your store? or take the melody that got placed out of the kit?
or do u keep selling the kit after a mel gets placed
only if you sell the rights to the melody ig
gems
🔥🔥🔥
Thats what I want bro
🔥🔥
Tks
Yo KXVI, can you make a video on how to make a living with the music without putting 90% of the time into social media? Like there gotta be a way to be a musician without being a content creator!
I mean the advice there would be more along the lines of keep producing until you have a recognizable and marketable sound, get placements with big artists, and keep building your reputation in the industry as a producer.

Does TB not own producergrind? I thought he did that’s crazy
Hey fam, I use splice and have been having trouble with copywriting when I upload a beat after using their “royalty free” sounds are your sounds royalty free? Or will I have the same problem?
What does that even mean
Making money off music itself is dead. Thanks for reminding us 🙏
You have to think at some point. Are you trying to sell content / music to other producers or to actual artists? I feel all of these videos and short form content are for the former not the latter. It’s an interesting approach clearly has worked here
Hi KXVI, and collabs? Does that still work?
Kxvi, you should make a video on how stressed by lil tjay was made. Also keep up the grind 🔥
Ngl i started doing this 5 months And iv made 1.02 $ 😂. On Spotify. Started doing shorts on my youtube beat /channel n it grew. Had got like 45 subscribers in like 2 months just putting shorts. 2024 i feel good! Consistently looking up ways to build n grow my brand as a producer
😈😈😈
millyyyy
Great video KXVI! Would love to interview you sometime.
kxvi my idol
🙏 my man
@@prodkxvi i got a question, what tool do you use to get other prods email who signed up to get your kit?
hey man, I've seen ur packs leaking over reddit!
I just downloaded 1 of them, and I wanted to ask...can I use them now in my own songs?
not if you pirated it off of reddit my g
@@prodkxvi Alright bro, So I'll make sure I buy that kit and then get my track released!
thanks alot for clearing my doubt!!
no worries 🙏 @@suryanshgotnochill5658
lmaoooo bro had the.nerve to ask em if it coo use he stolen shits
Sell beats..dont sell beats. They all hold phones with numbers. Hard to choose😅
Can you make
why is drake and travis scott are addicted Tay Keith beats
Bro wtf did you say?????
@@drkvr TAY KEITH
I really like his beats because of the spacey bells he had in his beats
And I want to have the same signature sound like him
@@jaideveremy4371 ME TOO I TRYING TO FIND MY OWN SIGNATURE SOUND AS WELL
You spelled Boi-1da wrong
Broow i appreciate what u are saying but not in south Africa i so hard to get to the top😞
it's definitely harder in certain places, but there's countless examples of people making it from everywhere in the world bro! don't let it limit your beliefs and make you think you can't make it, you can!
@@prodkxvi i don't know but i will try
Damn you are genius man
HOW I CAN SELL BEATS WITHOUT A CREDIT CARD
You'll need it anyways, but it shouldn't be credit, also could be a credit card but you def will need it
You could sell CD disks with you beats, but not now actually.
do you have a bank account?
NO@@prodkxvi
I get so many messages telling me how fire 🔥 my beats are but a big $0
They dont trust you yet
facebook deactivated my profile now i can't run instagram ads
do a vid on getting placements NOT as a loopmaker
i'll try to do this!
discord gang
yesirr
beatstars are the WORST for selling beats.. they are p2w company and then they are giving the money to some useless orginazations... dont sell your beats to beatstars.
whatever it is, if my products or beats are not good enough, I won’t be sold. Or myself need to be famous first.
so basically everything but make beats lol.
Yes, it’s so dumb nowadays, I hate this social media game, I just want to make music and give it to the people but that alone won’t get you anywhere nowadays, atleast if you are not in some major music city like Atlanta or LA, really robs me of my motivation to keep this music thing going… 🤮
wheres your receipt that u claim u made million dollars lol
Check my channel! I did a vid on it, breaking it all down
thanks will check it out@@prodkxvi
I feel your views would go up if you close your mouth in the thumbnail.
Its science . . . . . Proven fact
I really hate that you nowadays have to be a content creator much more than a musician to make it if you not living in a major music city. I don’t wanna make stupid shorts or RUclips videos or anything like that, I want to make music as much as possible and get it out to the people to enjoy but nooooo upload 462836 shorts every day so the algorithm catches you 🤦🏻♂️
I guess I’ll be doing music for myself then, f*ck it…
@@untilco
yeah okay you got a point there, it's good that we got the option now, many ppls lifes got changed because of that internet shit, I get that.
But as I said, it feels like you have to do content nowadays to at least stand a chance and I mean I for myself could do it, if I just look at it as a necesity but then I'd feel like "selling my soul" to a degree and honestly don't think it'd fullfill me in the long run.
So theres like 95% of the opportunities out the window instantly and idk if the remaining 5% are the same amount as the 100% from the old times you spoke about.
I just upload type beats for fun. Getting into tv/film sync licensing. I had a decent run selling beats from 2018-2020 then got very bored with it. I'm 35 and have noticed how fickle and deceptive most of these younger rappers are these days. When they have too many options, they act like they're god and they're doing us a favor using our beats when the reality is that they aren't sh1t without us. @@roninthegoat2810
