Super Music Producers : The Beginning Of A New Era

By Jane Williams


At the start of the 2000's, the music business, primarily the communities of hiphop and rnb, saw the appearance of what we call the "super music producers", accounting for chiefs: Dr. Dre, Timbaland, Rodney Jerkins or The Neptunes.

What is considered a "super producer"? So, the better interpretation of their difference with a "simple" producer might possibly take the example of what we call a "supermodel" in fashion, like Cindy Crawford, Claudia Schiffer or Naomi Campbell. You know those widely known super-models as well as everyone else and you can see all of them on each of the catwalks. In brief: safe values.

This has been the same in the music industry: there had been "big" producers, safe values, that driven all of the the projects and were requested by the best known singers or rappers. This was always secured for record company to utilize a reputable music producer other than a beginner. The well recognized producer composed a numerous of triumphant singles, in theory. Considering that at this time regularly big producers sold cd.

However, the music industry, after the start of the decade changed. To start with, people don't really pay disk now.

Consequently the record labels offer reduced money for a project. And undeniably, record labels will not be wishing to get involved between $ 100 000 to $ 300 000 for one single beat, as was the case through the golden era of music producers. The discs do not sell and online world starts to develop. To surmount unauthorized downloading of their artists, record companies develop or align with with statutory download applications and want to push their existence on this internet world, that has been escaping their control for so long.

But the popularity of the web also has has permitted the growth of lots of anonymous producers as good as, if not more advantageous than, "Super Producers".

A lot of these producers have paying attention to the advancement of the Web, which has assisted these to sell their beats online. Giving them to communicate and work with performers on a local scale as well as a world one. A producer from New york City can also supply beats to an artist in Japan. It is really now more simple for them to obtain a solid recognition or have a career. For the artists, this makes an impressive difference! They can buy beats online at home for their album, EP or even mixtape for good prices; definitely not those practiced by the "super producers".

Record labels pay a special interest on this new business. They buy beats online as well. And these days we can easily see that a few of these internet based producers are getting hired by majors.

The great time of super producers such as the times of super models goes away little by little, offering option to this modern market led by producers who, quite often, have practically nothing to envy to the "super producers".
