5 Core Differences Between Mixtapes and Albums
The definition
of mixtape s has changed overtime. Back in the old days, mixtape were dj mixes
that they played during their sets. In our days, mixtapes are also in a form of compilations
by artists especially underground artists. More like demos but they should not be mistaken for albums. There
are many things that differentiate between a mixtape and an album. I’m going to
list 5 major differences just to give you the general idea.

Mixtapes vs Album
1.
A
mixtape is made to create buzz for an artist, to get attention but an album’s
main aim is to make profit through sales.
2.
A
mixtape can contain beats from other songs since it not for sale it is not
legal to sing or rap over beats of other artists, but an album has to have
original beats or clearance in cases of samples or remixes.
3.
A
mixtape is an unprofessional/ informal compilation of songs, but an album is
formal and professional.
4.
There
is no legal requirement that has to be followed on a mixtape like license or
copyright but an album needs to be licensed and be protected under copyrights
law.
5.
Mixtapes
usually have low quality recording, mixing and mastering but album are required
to have high quality recording. Mixing and mastering.
For more
info, you can do more research, this is just to give you some general knowledge
on mixtapes/albums so that you don’t look stupid in front of your friends
calling your mixtape an album. Check this mixtape by one of our artist here DOWNLOAD
