11 placements on the way!🔥

12.5% it's a huge number, congrats bro & I hope you get even more & also help us get them placements as well.

Aye this is fire man, I relate to your laid back vibe heavy haha. - Mind if I do something similar for my next video?

it's not like he invented this idea. i first thought he took it from patick cc but in reality patrick could have taken the idea from someone else and so on. So go ahead lol

[@radar_raps]

As an artist myself I honestly feel like the most meh beat you have is one that rappers would find the most interesting. So many times I’ve come across producers who are literally like “I’m not feeling this beat” but then when I listen to it as an artist it’s like an immediate joining of energy. It’s crazy and i can’t describe it but yeah something to keep in mind

[@K4MZCWG]

Cause we as the artists like simplicity there’s not too much going on in the beat but for a producer they might see it as too basic or they didn’t push themselves hard enough

[@enragedcashout]

Thank you Ocean for inspiring me to make beats. You were the first youtuber I came across when i started getting interested in production. Right after watching you I went straight to making beats on garageband lol. I got Ableton Live now and I've been making beats every day for countless hours!

[@sixszn]

How long would you say it took you to learn Ableton?

[@enragedcashout]

@@sixszn It actually didn't take me too long. Maybe like 2 weeks to get it down. The only thing that takes a long time to learn is the commands and shit. But you can get started making some beats quickly.

[@sixszn]

@@enragedcashout Thanks bro!

What ever placement your at, your already there you don’t need anyone telling where you belong. You made it as long as your during what you love. Just keep the grind up and no matter what happens just believe in yourself worth not what other think. Big ups to brother across the pond.

[@fredof4413]

Good man

[@prodbyruz2936]

i think the secret is to reach out to the producers, build a relationship, and then send them beats, etc. that's how i got my first placement

Tip- try and find their A&R or manager or somebody close to them or hit up the labels, only thing is alot of times the labels will try to get u to sign a deal and use a placement as bait.

[@KingJaeTV]

Love this style of edit bro!

Awesome video Ocean 🌊 always being creative! OGOD!!!!

[@TreyGold]

thats a lot of hard work and i respect you

[@benitazee]

Just started the video and I really support this, personally as a fan I would say you should also shoot your shot with rising artists too, who knows what gems you will discover and crazy jams you will make together, they are less likely to decline and it is a nice place to start I think, just saying. Hoping to enter a music career and I am trying to figure out beat making to make my own beats and personally if I start singing, my strategy will be to collab with rising artistes first to build a fan base and gain recognition before moving to the top of the chain. Much love 😘

[@Juliano_DJOL]

Out of all the youtube producers I've heard on youtube I think you have the best beats as far as really rapping over the beats! Especially the drill beats you got! If u were to tune some of those old drill beats up, like tone down the perks and hats just a bit and remix with your new skills, I almost guarantee somebody big wld wanna get on one especially if u were to Taylor the beat to their style! Good luck!

[@pancakemixedit]

[@runlikewes]

[@LuxuryBeatsMusic]

I think it's better to just send a beat teaser (30 second or less) instead of saying "blah blah blah i'm biggest fan plz hop on my beat" Because seriously, these people are getting thousands of those messages per day. I mean really, these DM's may never be seen at all. But at least sending something you can listen to instantly gives you a little leverage, no?
