No More Super Producers !

By Sarah Scott


At the start of the 2000's, the music business, most especially the communities of hiphop and rnb, resulted in the visibility of what we now call the "super music producers", accounting for leaders: Dr. Dre, Timbaland, Rodney Jerkins or The Neptunes.

What exactly is a "super producer"? Well, the most reliable explanation of their difference with a "simple" producer will certainly take on the example of what we call a "supermodel" in fashion, for instance Cindy Crawford, Claudia Schiffer or Naomi Campbell. You know these popular models as well as anyone else and you can see all of them on almost all the catwalks. To be brief: safe values.

That was the identical thing in the music business: there had been "big" producers, risk free, that driven many the projects and also were invited by the most renowned singers and also rappers. This is really risk-free for a record labels to exploit a renowned music producer instead of a newbie. The acclaimed producer presented a copious of successful singles, in theory. Due to the fact that right at that time normally big producers sold discs.

But, the music industry, after the starting of the decade has changed. Firstly, people don't actually pay money for cd any more.

Consequently the record companies invest minimum money for a project. And apparently, record labels will not be looking to put money between $ 100 000 to $ 300 000 for just one single beat, as was the case in times of the golden years of music producers. The disks tend to not sell and internet grows. To defeat illegal downloading of their artists, record companies create or join with statutory download tools and hope to enforce their presence in this internet place, which has been getting out of their control for way too long.

But the popularity of the internet also has allowed the growing of abundant not known producers as good as, if not much better than, "Super Producers".

Those producers have focused on the developments of the Web, that has aided them to sell their beats online. Which allows them to contact and also work with performers on any nearby scale as well as a worldwide one. A producer from Australia will provide beats to some-one in Japan. It actually is now convenient for them to gain a pretty good respectability to get a career. For the artists, this makes a big difference! They are able to buy beats online in their own home for their album, EP and also mixtape for affordable prices; not at all those applied by the "super producers".

Record companies pay a special attention to this modern sector. They buy beats online as well. And nowadays we can easily notice that some of these web producers are receiving signed by majors.

The great time of super producers just like the epoch of super model fades away little by little, delivering way to this brand new market led by producers who, often, do not have anything to envy to the "super producers".
