Gangsta Beats - Make Gangsta Beats

One of the first popular gangsta rapper was Ice-T. Yes, you heard right, Ice-T! At about the same time Dr. Dre, Eazy-E, Ice Cube and MC Ren fromed a group called NWA. NWA took Gangsta Rap to a whole new level and this is where the Gangsta Rap Beat style was born.

Gangsta rap gained commercial momentum after the release of Notorious B.I.G's Ready To Die. B.I.G. and his producer, Puff Daddy, meshed gritty narratives with polished pop beats entirely designed with clubs and pop charts in mind. Since then, the same blueprint has been reproduced over and over by today's rap artists.

Basically gangsta rap beats are very hard hitting slow methodical beats that give you the feeling of thug drama or danger. Gangsta rap revolves around aggressive lyrics and trunk-heavy beats. I highly recommend listening to some old Dr. Dre, Snoop Dogg, C-BO, E-40, Scarface and Tupac albums to get an idea, before starting to create your first own gangsta beat.

One of the largest problems that I have personally run into while making rap beats and recording music is finding free high quality royalty free beats to download online.

Please don't get me wrong, they definitely do exist, but each rap beat that I was finding online had a price tag of up to $20. Right, $20 for a single beat. Sorry, but this is too much. I am not willing to pay so much for a single beat.

I guess I am not the only one who loves to have a massive array of beats to play around with to make that song I qm making sound right.

One day I came across Beats365. As stated on their website, they offer thousands of beats to download and you can choose from over 39 different styles to download, like Gangsta Beats, Dirty South beats, Hip Hop instrumentals, Reggae Beats, New School beats, West Coast, East Coast as well as R&B.

I have to admit that Beats365 offers the most most elaborate library of beats that I've ever come across!

All that you need to access all the beats is a lifetime membership to the site, and you can download and use as many beats and samples as you want! Right, there ar eno limites. There's also no limit to the things that you can do with the beats you download from Beats365, and there are no charges for downloading further beats.

Aside from the thousands of samples beats that you find within the members' area, you may also find added sound effects, instrumentals and nature sounds and so on. !

Making rap beats can be more fun and rewarding if you have got a huge collection of beats and samples to be employed in your music. It is one of the biggest and cheapest online databases of favored music beats and samples.

If you would like more beats to make that hit song you have been in mind, Beats 365 could be a good match for you!

Sonic Producer is a music production and beat making software that let's you create professional beats online. The program is unique as you really use it online, not like most other beat making software software where you have to install it on your computer. While the software is online, it doesn't lack any functionality.

So how does it work? Once you have paid your membership fee (which is $29.99 ONETIME for LIFETIME ACCESS!!) you get access to 1000s of pre-recorded tracks and then you use Sonic Producer to put them into your tune and you are able to add certain effects and so on... There's even a keyboard so you are able to add assorted "jingles" to your music.

When you are all done with a track that you like, you can burn it onto CD and take it with you. Sonic Producer has been designed for the absolute newbie. But don't get me wrong, this does not mean that if you are a pro Sonic Producer will not work for you! Sonic Producer is great, for newbies AND Pros! It has all you need to make professional beats fast, without any music production data. Sonic Producer comes pre-installed with hundreds of samples of music instruments. This is really effective if you need to make a beat.

It also come with some prefab sequences, for you to add to your beats. The probabilities of what you can create, are limitless. You may also import new samples (hand-made or downloaded) right into you application.

You an also make your own sounds with the keyboard. The smartest thing in my view is the way that you can get active in 10 minutes and pick the style of your beat then get down to make some amazing tracks and because there'll be others using the software you can interact and compare your musical creations! I have to admit, I am a big fan of Sonic Producer and you cannot beat the price!
