We need an update!!!
Hi there guys,
So I am a Professional recording artist from Atlanta, GA, United States and I feel like we need an improvement on how to search the beats we actually need on Beatstars.com. I am actually just getting started in the music business and as we know you always start as small as possible, right ?
I reallly feel like I ain't gon this time to always make an offer for the Exclusive Rights on the beats I need to buy y'all.. Plus we never can expect the price which is bad surprise.. I am at this stage when I am really tryna make profit off of them. Though, So look what I am suggesting right now can we please have a newly renovated search engine which could allow us to search only for Exclusive rights with a filter for the price range like for example 0-100$, 101-200$, Etc. You know Im saying? Im done clicking on each beat tryna find one affordable to me as time flies and I really need to put in the work right now, not tomorrow!!! Well, thank you Beatstars for this marketplace and Happy New Decade!
Cordially,
Lil Icy Jew

If you're at the point in your music career where you're figuring out how to make profit with your music still, then you should be purchasing non-exclusive licenses. Buying a license for that beat allows you use it for profit and test the waters. If the song were to catch and become a big hit, then you go back and purchase exclusive rights. No other artist will be able to create with that beat ever again...so it's best to just buy a license and try it out first, instead of buying a whole beat that fans have the potential to dislike. It's like that "Old Town Road" song, originally it was a $30 MP3 beat lease, Lil Nas X went back and purchased exclusive rights because it began to gain traction. Don't make choosing beats become a big expense, there's too many other heavier expenses that come with being an artist (recording, cover art design, marketing campaigns, press releases, photo-shoots, music reviews, etc).
For $30 (sometimes $20) you can purchase a basic license and gain the ability to create a track, perform it for profit, collect streaming royalties, and more. Plus, most producers have bulk discounts available, like "Buy 1, Get 2 FREE". What more do you want to be able to create consistently as artist and keep your fans update with new content.
Btw, a quality producer who is new and unknown will sell an exclusive for at least $200 USD. If you're paying less, expect less quality.
Sincerely,
