Producer Diaries

Producer Diaries Podcast | Episode #15.
Jay Cactus, Ocean, and LLB join forces to bring you a brand-new weekly podcast where we talk about music production, content creation, life, and current events.
This episode starts with birthday wishes for LLB, who turns 21, then shifts to the topic of extreme activities like skydiving and bungee jumping, with mixed opinions on whether they would try them. We also talk about running as a form of fitness and the different challenges it presents compared to weightlifting. The conversation concludes with a discussion about J. Cole's diss track and his decision to take it down and apologize. The conversation then shifts to the production styles of UK artists, with Nines and Stormzy being mentioned as examples of artists who pay attention to detail in their beats. We also discuss the pressure artists face to innovate and experiment with their sound, and the potential divide between their core audience and new directions they may take. The conversation concludes with a brief discussion about Metro Boomin's new project and the challenges of releasing content in a timely manner. In this episode of the podcast, we discuss various topics related to the music production industry. We talk about the challenges of dealing with hacked social media accounts, the prevalence of ads for music production tools, and the potential negative impact of artists using producer tags on their beats. We also touch on the issue of copyright claims on beats and the strategies used in selling beats through direct messaging. In this part of the episode, we discuss the success of a type beat channel that focuses on a specific genre, such as Afro Drill beats. We also talk about the challenges of sticking to one style and the importance of niche down on type beat channels. We mention the need for good beats and the potential of experimenting with different thumbnail designs to stand out. We also discuss the competition in the type beat channel space and the importance of consistency and not giving up.
