Making Millions With a Simple Song
How many of us have heard songs like, "Swag on", or "Gone Franky With it", "Stanky Leg", or even "Marco Polo"? Well, I don't want to sound like a hater, but SERIOUSLY!!!!...Are they for real?
Soulja Boy (However you spell it :)... let Youtube viewers know that it was mostly luck that got him into the music industry. From his own mouth he said that he made his song with a DEMO VERSION of Fruity Loops Studio, and it took him 10 minutes!!! Then here's the WORST PART ABOUT IT...HE MADE LIKE 10 MILLION dollars! It's sad! So so sad!
Understand this: When you have a "hot hook" and an o.k. beat, then you can slide with just having that ok little wack beat. Then when you have the recipricol; an o.k. hot and a CRAZY HOT beat, then you can get buy as well. I am not understand how people are getting by with lame beats, PLUS lame hooks. To tell you the truth, when I heard, "hop up out the bed, turn my swag on, take a look in the mirror say what's up, I'm gettin monayyyy"...it didn't do anything for me. BUT when I heard the story behind it, I kept singing the song to myself, and realized why it's so catchy.
A secret that ALL producers, and beat makers alike should know, is that when creating a song, you always have to consider your audience. If you want high hip hop radio station ratings, you have think about who listens to hip hop. Well...alota weed heads, alotta weed sellers, and people who have a hustle that they refuse to give up. SO THEN! If you're smoking weed, and you're a weed head, when you wake up you want what? WEED. You turn your "swag on" to go find some (this is cracking me up)...once to have your weed, you feel whole again. That's one way to look at it. Another way is to think about the person who's selling the drugs. They do the same thing with their little "swag on" thing to make money by selling drugs. I mean really, we don't have to live in the hood to know that this is what goes on.
I said all that to say this: Everyone has a "swag on" type thing they deal with daily. This Soulja Boy song PUMPS PEOPLE UP...so Soulja Boy I ain't mad at you...I don't think so.
The reality is:
As simple as "Turn My Swag On" is, it made that boy 10 million bucks, and if he can do it, so can you. The question is: How?
You're going to need a crap load of info. Contracts, agreements, industry sounds, a tax id, and really just genuine step by step instructions on how to become a "music millionaire" because I believe that if you can believe it, you can achieve it without a doubt. I am currently working on a deal with one of my songs. Hopefully I will personally be able to write another blog about the steps that I actually took because you need to hear it from someone who's been there, done, and saw it.
What I do recommend that all producers get their hands on is this one of a kind "All you need to know about selling beats" type kit that includes industry contracts, FX (sounds), and a membership to an online community that is dedicated to your success. This is no joke. This kit is real! I know people have been waiting a long time for something like this. It was put together by a sought after production team, and that's really all that I can say! It's fantastic, and it's already helped folks (with talent) to land deals. It's detailed...very detailed. I will be posting more about it for those that want to know a bit more... Here Is Where to Get All The Information You Need to Make Millions Selling Your Beats and Songs
