Common Reasons Why To Buy Underground Beats

By Therry Jo


The world today is filled with rap beats, underground beats, pop beats, electro beats and list goes on. But why should you buy underground instrumentals instead of mainstream? If you feel this is a difficult decision, you are mistaken. Let's think for a moment.

When you switch on MTV or a radio, you probably will almost always hear the same style of music when it comes to hip-hop and pop music. That upbeat vibe with synthetic sounds and vocals that are digitally tuned. That is the mainstream pop music in our day because it sells better than others. But that kind of sound is getting extremely boring because so many people wish to get very well known and they think that this sound will get them there. It won't. Its all about being original and creative if you want to achieve success.

When for example Eminem became popular, what was the reason? He was one of a kind and fresh breath of air in the rap game. You have to have something others do not have. If you use mainstream beats, you will do the exact same thing all the other writers and singers are doing. You need extraordinary beats to be an extraordinary singer. That's why it's best to turn to producers who has that underground sound built in them.

In mainstream pop music, there are very few instruments they use. Most sounds are based on synthesizers and not real instruments. There are exceptions as you can imagine but that is what it is for the most part. Underground producers are attempting to mix and match instruments that no one hasn't even heard before. That is how they can achieve that unique vibe.

Mainstream music as of late is all about selling and selling. Major record companies sign singers and bands which will sell, that is the only reason. Their only end goal is to generate money, period. Many bands and musicians have even lost their credibility when they were contracted to a major label because the label wanted to change them to earn more money. That is sad but a true story.

If you want to be successful, create something new and unique. Obviously a lot of things have been done previously but there are many things still to do. If you have an exciting idea, get it started before someone else does. Work like crazy and you can make your dreams come true.
