Timbaland, The Neptunes, Dr Dre...: No More Super Producers !

By Stephanie Hudson


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

What is a "super producer"? Okay, the most reliable interpretation of their difference with a "simple" producer might possibly take on the illustration of what we call a "supermodel" in fashion, for instance Cindy Crawford, Claudia Schiffer or even Naomi Campbell. You know these famous models as well as everybody else and you can see them on many the catwalks. In brief: safe values.

This became the similar thing in the music business: there have been "big" producers, safe values, that directed just about all the projects and also were looked for by the most popular singers and also rappers. It absolutely was always risk-free for a record labels to get a famous music producer in comparison with a newcomer. The famous producer given a large number of winning singles, in principle. Because of the fact that right at that time regularly big names sold discs.

However, the music business, after the beginning of the decade changed. First, consumers don't really buy disc anymore.

Which means the record companies offer not as much money for a project. And undoubtedly, record companies will not be willing to put in money between $ 100 000 to $ 300 000 for just one single beat, as was the condition when the golden age of music producers. The cd do not sell and the web starts to develop. To do something about illegal downloading of their artists, record companies develop or join with statutory download applications and hope to push their existence in this internet world, which has been escaping their control for such a long time.

But the rise up of the internet has additionally permitted the coming up of lots of anonymous producers as good as, if not better than, "Super Producers".

All of these producers have focused on the developments of the Internet, that has facilitated these to sell their beats online. Allowing them to contact and work with singers or rappers on a local scale as well as a global one. A producer from New york city can now supply beats to a person in Japan. It is really now faster and easier for them to obtain a really good popularity to get a career. For the artists, this makes an important difference! They can buy beats online in their own home for their album, EP and also mixtape for reasonable prices; away from those practiced by the "super producers".

Record labels pay a specific awareness of this modern business. They buy beats online too. And these days we can observe that a few of these web producers receive hired by majors.

The golden era of super producers such as the times of super model fades away steadily, giving way to this new market directed by producers who, quite often, have nothing to envy to the "super producers".
