Timbaland, Neptunes, Dr Dre ? No More Super Music Producers!

By Kelly Jill


Starting in early 2000's, the music business, notably the communities of hiphop and also rnb, resulted in the emanation of what we call the "super music producers", accounting for chiefs: Dr. Dre, Timbaland, Rodney Jerkins or The Neptunes.

What precisely is a "super producer"? So, the best demonstration of their difference with a "simple" producer will make the illustration of what we call a "supermodel" in fashion, for example Cindy Crawford, Claudia Schiffer or even Naomi Campbell. You know these prominent models as well as everybody else and you can see all of them on all of the catwalks. To be brief: safe values.

This has been the same in the music industry: there had been "big" producers, safe values, that directed completely the projects and were requested by the most renowned singers and also rappers. That was always more safe for record labels to get a popular music producer compared to a beginner. The famous producer composed a many of triumphant singles, in theory. For the reason right at that time in most cases big music producers sold cd.

However, the music business, after the beginning of the decade changed. To begin with, most people don't really shop for disk nowadays.

Consequently the record companies offer less and less money for a project. And incontestably, record labels are not looking to participate between $ 100 000 to $ 300 000 for just one single beat, as was the condition when the golden years of music producers. The disks tend to not sell and worldwide web starts to develop. To deal with not legal downloading of their artists, record companies create or join with statutory download technologies and try to push their presence in this cyberspace scene, that has been running from their control for a long time.

But the improvement of the web has allowed the growth of a lot of not known producers as good as, if not better than, "Super Producers".

All of these producers have targeted on the advancement of the Internet, that has aided these to sell their beats online. Encouraging them to contact and also work with artists on any local scale as well as a world-wide one. A producer from New York can even sell beats to an artist in Japan. It is truly now more easier for them to obtain an excellent rating and have a career. For the artists, this makes a huge difference! They can buy beats online in their house for their album, EP or maybe mixtape for affordable prices; away from those practiced by the "super producers".

Record companies pay a special awareness of this modern market. They buy beats online too. And recently we could see that some internet producers are getting hired by majors.

The golden era of super producers like the years of super mannequin goes away progressively, allowing way to this new business driven by producers who, quite often, have practically nothing to envy to the "super producers".
