Tips To Make a Rap Beat

By Josh Smith


This article will explain the important tips you require if you wish to make a rap beat. Being able to create cool rap beats will give you opportunities to work with rappers in your neighborhood or more know rappers when you get better at it and people start to talk about you.

1 - An Idea

The basic for a nice sounding rap beat is a simple idea. When you have an idea you want to work with it will become easier to get it started. This might be a baseline that is going through your head, or a melody that you feel rocks.

2 - A Baseline

It's your choice if you wish to begin with the drums and base, or if you wish to begin with the tune. I prefer to start with the drums and base because I feel that this is will give the best starting position to add guitars and other instruments and sounds.

3 - Something Original

A baseline could be original, but it's simpler to make an original rap beat if you have some fresh tuens to accompany the drums and baseline. In the beginning I will suggest you spend some time imitating your favorite producer, but if you want to sell your beats it is necessary that it is something new.

4 - Personality Together with originality comes personality. If you wish to make a career making rap beats it's a requirement that folks realize who created the beat the once they hear it.

This might not be easy in the beginning. You must understand the basics first, but when you discover a sound that is yours it will be a lot easier to sell it. You have to start with what you already love listening to, and add your sound to it. Be innovative.

5 - Rappers An additional critical element of generating a rap beat is to have a rapper who could make use of the beat. You might choose to do the rapping yourself, but if you have friends that is already working on some texts or flows, I would suggest you burn out your beats on a CD and give it to them.

You'll also discover acapella songs from a lot of your well liked rappers on the internet. This might be good for practice. After you have made an original track with your favorite acapella you can remove it and have your friends to use the song instead.

6 - A Rap Beat Production Software The last step if you want to great a rap beat is software for doing it. There are many on the market, some are advanced with a high learning curve. Others you will find simpler to understand and easier to use.
