[@DillyDGIB]

Ask me anything you guys want in the comments! I'll answer everything until the next video drops!

[@ayetee8]

Should you make a new channel if your not seeing any growth on your current type best chanel?

[@DillyDGIB]

@@ayetee8 if there’s no traction then you could. KZbin seems to reward new channels, but make sure you haven’t been inconsistent or you’ve chosen too small of a market, or your beats are top level (I haven’t heard them, so idk) take care of those things first

[@moxemusic]

Thanks so much for your content and for your work you are putting in for the community! I really appreciate that! Could you share your beatsales of the last 3-6 months? Like in a lot of videos I saw those crazy numbers which are most of the times from around 2021, which is great to see. But I think it would be also super helpfull to know what more up-to-date figures look like.

[@Staykool777]

This video is my first time viewing your content. Your line of questioning is brilliant and gives me lessons I need to learn and answers questions. I have no desire to be a type beat producer and every desire to be a big pop producer and stay in my lane. Great content bro. I I just subscribed.

[@nopelessmusic2896]

Hey, how many type beat videos you recommend me to post weekly/ monthly?

[@karribeatz]

Definitely insightful, really appreciate you putting this together 👏 consistency will always play a major role in everything we do

[@DillyDGIB]

Facts!

[@Staykool777]

These are some of the BEST questions Ive seen on KZbin, They are super helpful. Thx for this. Great content. I just subscribed.

Thank you again for making such valuable content Dilly!! Love your videos Still grinding in my channel focused on a French hip-hop niche - progress seems to come in waves, not really consistent yet. But keeping hope!

[@DillyDGIB]

That’s how it goes! There’s definitely cycles to this. I just keep pushing and keep going for bigger things and things come back around every time

Feel that is 🧢 not everyone has the ear for it

[@DCBMusicBeats]

Thank you for inspiring me to make a type-beat channel a couple months back. I need to be more consistent with content for the channel, but I've been locking in with the people who've kept me and my lady off the streets the last couple months and am managing to still work with new people and make beats and instrumentals to get me by in the moment.

[@rufrida005]

More power to you brother!

@Hazard Spawn 🎶 Thank you so much! Hope you dig the one I put up today, def need to get consistent again after this comment section 😇

[@petepoly]

4:02 just one question did he mean contend id? But that would mean you must send it first to a distribution service like distrokid or? Or how does it work? Im a bit confused would like to know more about it...

helpful vid thanks man

Np!

[@ashwinniamat8560]

Where should you register your music as a beatmaker to collect royalties?? So, i produce everyday, want to upload it to youtube and beatstars, maybe later instagram. Where do i register so i dont miss out on any royalties. From europe btw.

[@heymagicbeats]

Thank you For Inspiring Bro !

[@DillyDGIB]

Of course!

[@TxmmyBeats]

This is all very solid advice

[@DillyDGIB]

Yeah they gave some great answers 💯

[@skullcandy4309]

Thank you for helping us Dilly 🙏 Do you think there is a particular part of the day when it is best to post a video? how to protect beats from theft, and should they be protected? does beatstars reward consistency like youtube?

[@DillyDGIB]

1. I like 1pm MST. But just a consistent time does work best. Also depends on where your audience lives. You don't want it too late and you don't want it too early 2. Master your beats and tag them so that when they rip it, it's lower quality. 3. High quality Volume is always the best approach imo, some people succeed without this, but I think that's rare.

[@skullcandy4309]

@DillyDGIB Thank you for taking your time to respond 🙏 One more question, in addition to my second question that I asked, do you recommend protecting your beats by registering them to distrokid or anything similar so that you can collect royalties from people stealing your beats ? Or is that a bad idea because then you would need to whitelist manually every single person that purchases a lease?

[@JASPERTUTORIALS]

Great video! Common Dilly W

[@DillyDGIB]

Thanks bro, couldn’t have done it without you!

[@guitarloopsbyinlandsis]

Crazy informations !

[@SaynseBeats]

Very interesting video. Thanks for putting it together :)

[@DillyDGIB]

Of course!

[@timrault]

Hey Dilly ! Two quick questions : 1/ What's the strategy in terms of which beats we should post to KZbin and which beats to only upload to beat stars ? If my beat is already available on KZbin for free I can't really sell it on beatstars anymore can I ? So I guess the strategy would be to post every 5th beat to KZbin and the rest goes to beat stars ? 2/ Do you see AI generated beats as a serious threat to type beat producers ? Have a great one !

[@gabelucas1195]

Legendary video!

[@matthewmaymusic]

4:02 How do you collect those royalties?

[@DillyDGIB]

I believe registering with BMI, maybe Beatstars publishing, idk if Othello is signed to them or not

[@denooo127]

Love this video I’m doing all this so far 🤞

[@DillyDGIB]

Sounds like you’re on the right path!

could you go more indepth on registering beats, briefly covered at 4:15. great video bro this content is a god send🙏

[@SadBeats4life]

Don't have any questions, I just appreciate this video so much because today I was seriously thinking on giving up but I think there is nosuccess without blindly trusting yourself.

[@aaronmena7005]

Keep going bro 💪🏽

[@DillyDGIB]

Keep going, it’s hard to connect the dots in the future, but I think we all have no choice but to keep pushing and keep trying.

[@Beatz_by_Tp_the_don]

how can I sell my sampled beats like nujabes and jdilla

[@1B_Views]

Hey bro do you know how much is lyrics videos CPM?

[@GodlikePariah]

WHY U AINT ASK ME lol but amazing video bro fr

[@s4mple]

pale 🔥🔥🔥🔥

[@holandesvoador7683]

Can you make a video taking us step by step on how to start on the business? I came from EDM music production, got into trap beat few months ago, still have to improve the quality, but I wanna start learning on how to be able to get at least 1k / month consistently. Thx

[@DillyDGIB]

Crazy, I literally filmed how to make your first $1k yesterday. It may not work for EDM though, that could be a different route.

[@thePXRTY]

If you are an EDM producer i would rather advice to sell sample packs,loop kits, presets for like serum, vital or any vst you use to make music with. Im sure you would do waaaayyyyy over 1k and even faster than selling beats. But DONT go into trap/hip hop production if you dont really like it that much just cause them beats sell. If you do enjoy making these type of tracks then yeah go ahead

[@holandesvoador7683]

@@DillyDGIB Yooo, thx for the replies. I mean, I came from EDM, but I also produce trap / hip hop shit rn. I just wanna learn how to get into the market haahhahaha, thx brossss

[@holandesvoador7683]

@@thePXRTY Yeaahh, I actually never really enjoyed the lyrics as much as I like 90's 00s hip hop, but the beats can actually get me addicted to some songs, So i eventually got into the hip hop scene as well. At least instrumentallywise

[@ko-ap]

Pease interview Fantom if you can next🙏🙏

[@jman5258]

Hey dilly, you always say niche down in your beats, but do you think you can niche can too much and pick one which is too obscure if that makes sense . Love what you do btw

[@DillyDGIB]

Definitely! Some niches have too low of ceilings to be worth pursuing.

[@Jeff_Leon]

The real question is: Is this income consistent throughout the year or is it the result of many months of unpaid work?

[@rajetmills4985]

it's never consistent.

[@LilyoungBeats]

thx for this video, My channel look dead but i a, trying just getting beats out there

[@Rmcbeatz.]

Is it advisable to target three different artist or just one?

[@DillyDGIB]

Depends how related they are and if they "funnel" into each other

[@thestreetdisciple3955]

I like the question and answer

[@ayetee8]

Should you make a new channel if your not seeing any growth on your current type best chanel?

[@SadBeats4life]

I have a question, those were the best months but how much you make on average throughout the year (question for dilly)

[@DillyDGIB]

It fluctuates, $15k from all streams during dips (rn) and consistently $30k a month when things are good.

[@RJ-01]

How do you register beats to gain royalties?, that seems interesting bc that is how labels make loads of money on artists but I have no idea how it works.

[@sonicgems]

You gotta sign up to a Publishing Rights Organization.

[@DillyDGIB]

@sonicgems nailed it, only money in big songs imo

[@RJ-01]

@@DillyDGIB @sonicgems thank you

[@jinnvenus4183]

pain 1 is #1

[@rufrida005]

I can understand DJ Pain1's point about having different channels targeting different genres/keywords for beats. But then PALE1080 mentioned opening a separate beatstars account as well. Can I not have different YT channels for different type of beats, but put them all on a single beatstars account?

[@DillyDGIB]

I don't think Pale meant a different beatstars, i think he just saying if he started from scratch, meaning he didn't have a beatstars, he would need to start one as step one.

[@rufrida005]

@@DillyDGIB aah! My bad then, thank you Dilly!

[@mantamadeit]

just a short question, are you open to receiving loops? 🙏🏻

[@DillyDGIB]

Depends, they need to be super specific for me

[@SouthHarborMusic]

Dilly how do you deal with huge fluctuations in sales?

[@DillyDGIB]

Make sure that I’m good for a while, when I get money I save the majority and I’m also working on multiple income streams. Also you just persevere in my head I say “this is where most people would become discouraged” and then that motivates me to keep pushing. Everything is a cycle too

[@SouthHarborMusic]

@@DillyDGIB thanks a lot for the response man. I appreciate it 🙏

[@elgenio12345]

What niche would you suggest going for that is similar to drake type beats?

[@JayxNoche]

Roy Woods, Tory Lanez, Bryson Tiller

[@DillyDGIB]

@noche had good suggestions, Tory Lanez for sure

[@DillyDGIB]

Depends on the style of Drake beats

[@2BitTray]

Someone knows what Othello Beats means with registering at 4:02 ?

[@DillyDGIB]

He's talking about publishing and royalties for songs that came from his youtube beats. Like the Meek Mill freestyles

[@2010waslit]

how to register tho ? which website ?

[@TPOID]

​@@2010waslit I know that you can sign up for a PRO like BMI, ASCAP etc.. Depending on the country you live in it will differ. Look up "bmi agreements foreign performing rights societies" it has a big list with a lot of countries. Thats all i know, i would be really interested in how the process for that works for your own beats and if you get a placement. If somebody knows more please let me know :D

[@producedbyblake]

Dilly what happened bro. Where you at😭

[@musiclearning2983]

BRO!!!! 20.000 dollars!!!, I in my 2 jobs earn about 7.000 dollars A YEAR, yes I live in latinamerica.... How I wish I could make 20,000 dollars and leave here haha.

[@CODE.4XX]

Do you think type beat producers who doing "Free For Profit" are getting less sales?

[@DillyDGIB]

Tough to say, I'd say probably, but if they're driving that traffic to a catalog, then maybe not. If everything is free for profit then it would make sense they wouldn't make as much.

[@MotivationalMind101]

Omg ur other channel has like 6x the subscribers. I have another channel too that's doing better than this one, the experimental counterpart. I really thought this one was gonna be the big one. But anyway ✌ >>> me on my way to make a 3rd channel lol since i don't even have my type beat channel up yet.

[@OrionBlaze]

bro called drake niche

[@DillyDGIB]

Drake type beats are a “niche” he’s not a niche artist

[@pharaohlimuzik]

how do i collect royaltys post selling or sending beat? especially through insta

[@badsheeran]

Hey Dilly, from your knowledge and the people you talk to, what is the best way to promote my top selling beats via Instagram Ads and/or KZbin Ads to increase sells? Specifically Target group, Ad Format, Ad goal (purchase, reach,...), Ad Types (YT discovery,...) Visuals, copywriting, landing page. I think that's an interesting topic for every type beat producer out there. Thank you for the sauce and have a nice day g.

[@DillyDGIB]

I’ve never ran KZbin ads, but I know people have done alright with those. For IG I would just do a slide show of a beat pack and or some sort of deal like buy 2 get 2 free on all beats and just run ads on a carousel post

[@badsheeran]
