I feel all of yall man. I also hate when someone hits me with, work with me, I'm going to blow up. Everyone thinks their project is going to be successful. Nothing wrong with that but, I need that front end payment homey and I'm taxing you because this is the music business. If your shit flops, I want to make sure it was worth my time financially. First thing a BULLSHITTER wants to know is, how many non- exclusive licenses have you got on the beat? None of your business. You want it, ask me how much for an exclusive, split publishing, give me my production credits, pull all of that shit in writing, and lets make music. If you can't afford my fee, then negotiate something that works for both of us.Let me hear what you are doing. If I like the project and think it's worth getting involved with, we can work. I may take less for the sake of making a classic. How are you going to tell a producer you can't pay up front, want him/her to take a 80/20 split on the song, and you are not a well known artist? That's greed. People assume you are difficult when you handle your business. Or because you have beats on this site, you are a BED ROOM BEAT MAKER. Nothing wrong with that, we all start off like that. If you have HEAT, you got HEAT. But don't settle for anything you are not comfortable with. Now you will hear, I thought we are supposed to make music for the love..YEAH, I LOVE GETTING PAID DOING WHAT I LOVE TO DO. LOVE Didn't buy my studio, it doesn't maintain my equipment when it breaks, and it doesn't pay the electric bill. I LOVE IT but some people make me HATE IT from time to time. That's not ego talking. I'M JUST BEING REAL!!!!!
