I just made a 49 beat pack and started sharing with some artists, ants and manager .. I made a variety of bangers for everyone 🙏🏼 .. this beat pack is called BassOnKeys ShowCase Vol.1 beat pack ... my next project will be called ShowCash beat pack or depends on how many singles I can make with the various artist to make a mixtape 🙏🏼
For those who don’t know I recently joined a live competition for producers that timbaland judges live. Someone tried claiming my beat as theirs and luckily I caught them with a lot of other people. The version they stole luckily was not the same quality as mine and I decided to post a video explaining the situation and the highlight footage. Many asked if I was upset about it and I said no. Reason being was this proved to be the perfect reason as to why I copyright my work, also I feel blessed to see that timbaland was feeling it. This video is not an attack on timbaland and #beatclub , just me speaking up on how some producers try to cheat on these platforms. I hope this helps others who make music as well as for those who have questions . And I hope it helps these platforms with increasing their security for artists and producers ...

wish he had mentioned a legal template/sentence/paragraph for protection of your files just in case the artist doesn't want to pay. clicked on this video hoping he'd go into detail about it. if anyone sees this comment and knows anything about it please make me aware.
They wont use your beat unless they pay because you could take it down, its still your intellectual property, if they dont have file with license they cant use it legally.
@Liam Pinard if you send beats with a small contract, if they use it in any way that's not authorized you can file a DMCA claim to take it down. Highly suggest watching DJ pain on yt he goes over alot of legal stuff

Gotta just keep sending bro. You gotta think about it, they probably get hundreds of emails each day and you're just a small percentage of that hundred. Also may have just not opened it yet cause of that same reason. Def keep trying my guy!
Hey im new to this so i made this beat and its not very long so i wanted to know what I do or say? And how do i copyright my music? Bc i put my tag my music name but this beat dont have my tag bc i made it on my phone but im so happy I came across your page....but I was sending it to a famous producer
The copyright thing eludes me personally, but if you at least email it to yourself that could be a start. As for the tags, you could put your artist, album in your Windows Media Player or your Mac music playing program.
Wonderful information Curtiss King. I would like to know how do you make or build up an email list so when we have a sale going on we can send them off. Thanks and have a great one.
Thanks for watching! A great way to start is creating a 'join my newsletter for free beats' type of offer. This should be on the homepage of your site for maximum visibility. If you don't want to give away free beats, you can offer exclusive discounts, beats that aren't available to the general public, etc.
can you send the same beat do multiple artists at a time. then if one artists wants to use one, then I guess its a "you snooze you lose" deal with the other artists...?
It depends if someone buys the exclusive rights or not. You can lease beats non-exclusively, meaning multiple people can use the beat. If you sell the exclusive license, it can't be sold any more but anyone with a non-exclusive license can still use the beat within the terms of their contract. Check this guide out for more info: support.airbit.com/article/174-licensing-overview
Thanks for that advice Curtis! And I have a question for you to answer on your next Airbit video? Should producer learn how to engineer so artists can buy your beats?
Depends what you're trying to achieve. If you want to upsell more beats, the store link is better. However, this provides more distractions = less likely to complete the purchase. Sending only the tagged beat means less distractions, so they're more likely to focus on the beat you send and make a decision about using/buying it
Airbit so i got this beat now that im working on its not done tbh its like what 20 seconds, so i was thinking should I send it to a producer and they change it and give me my cut money credit and all that? Or what
Hey Curtiss king do you or anyone know why I am not receiving the email with the activation code in it? Would love the help airbit is really slow with responses.
Hey Adam, sorry you haven't received your activation code. If this hasn't already been resolved by our support team can you please email support@airbit.com with the email address used for you account so we can resolve this for you?
Hey, if the tag is continuous throughout the beat, please contact us at support@airbit.com. If there is one tag in the intro, you may want to contact the producer, as they can confirm if the beat contains an intro tag, or if it was left on by mistake.
Okay. it wasent a mistake I just didn’t download it yet it’s still in my gmail I’m guessing when I download it since it’s a trackout I’m able to get the beat with custom files?
The easiest way to provide a beat via email is to provide the download link. We have a guide to sharing beats here: support.airbit.com/article/97-how-to-share-a-beat

I sent one hard beat to a rapper’s camp and they responded 😈
Aye this was my suggestion🔥🔥
Thanks for your suggestion! I hope the video answered this topic for you
what did you mean when you said attach confidentiality agreement? could you elaborate on that more plz?
KOSI DAVIS
Outline what you expect from the artist so they don’t go haywire give either no credit, no agreement on royalty and copyright or just both
Thanks really help give me a clearer understanding of how this work keep it 💯💪🏽
Anyone else use google drive links to send beats via email?
btw i'm talking sending like a 20 pack not just a single beat
yessssir i got like 60 in there lmao
Big fax! Same
2mins and 30 secs damn near the whole entire song....i mean some songs is like 3mins sum less so u only leaving out 30 secs lml
i'd say a minute if its 3 or 2 minutes long and about 30 seconds if its only a minute
For me, my shortest beat is 3 mins and my longest is around 4 minutes 30 seconds.
@@UNDENIABLEBarttySky u do tracks that are a min???? usually those type of tracks are like super fire lol and rare or dont get played hardly ever
All my beats are at least 10 minutes long so

What format should the beats be in? MP3, wav?
Mp3
I thought it would be best to be in wav as it has a better quality.
@@ProdTokyoX if u send 10 wavs à 50 megabyte, thats 500mb
Send mp3 it's a low quality version so they can't steal it

Curtis dropping knowledge again!
Is there a way to get the placement rapper to view the email? Most of the time when I send beats to rappers with 400k subs, they don’t open the email.
Gotta just keep sending bro. You gotta think about it, they probably get hundreds of emails each day and you're just a small percentage of that hundred. Also may have just not opened it yet cause of that same reason. Def keep trying my guy!
Email those closer to them
Very informative video bro. Fux with it 💯
should i include lease agreements when sending beats to major labels and artist?
Thanks for the upload very informative
Btw new subscriber
Which way is better for sending beats? Sometimes they can be heavy and I can’t send em on mail... any help?
A H Hey, you can send via Google Drive or Dropbox
Is it bad to send beats to booking emails?
If it’s a big artist don’t bother, if it’s a smaller artist ( up to about 500k subs) you can take the risk, but you can try dming them first
Curtis is the king

Airbit thank you for the information. I really appreciate it.
this guy knows it made me subscribe
Thanks for the sub! 🙌
Do you register all your beats with asap/bmi before sending or na?
Great post here.
Glad you enjoyed it, thanks for watching 👊

Do you copyright your music before sending it out?
That's a mixy opinion.....I learned it's best to have a complete product and copyright
As soon as you create a beat, you have copyright. It's just a matter of getting it registered after that
@@lastson7119 you don't have to get it registered, getting it registered just means you can sue them
Good shit
Thanks for that advice Curtis! And I have a question for you to answer on your next Airbit video? Should producer learn how to engineer so artists can buy your beats?
Engineer enough to a certain extent then let them do mastering if they want
Thoughts on sending the tagged beat in an email vs sending your beat store link?
Depends what you're trying to achieve. If you want to upsell more beats, the store link is better. However, this provides more distractions = less likely to complete the purchase. Sending only the tagged beat means less distractions, so they're more likely to focus on the beat you send and make a decision about using/buying it
