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

What is a record deal? What does it means to be signed?
There
are a number of deals/contracts that’s artist sign in the music industry, for
example, record deals, management deals, agent deals, publishing deal, endorsement
deals and distribution deal, but the most basic one is the record deal. But you
can’t hope to understand, what is a record deal without knowing what is a record
company/label
What
is a record company/label?
A
record company/label is a firm/business/enterprise that aims to make profits
from selling music and other music related products. Record companies usually
have the word ‘Records’ after their name for Example, Bad Boy Records, Cash
Money Records, but this is not compulsory as we have seen record companies with
alternative naming such as GOOD Music, Young Money Entertainment and OVO Sound.
Independent
record labels also exist. These labels usually do everything themselves or collaborate
with small time distributors or management companies on a short term basis for
a specific project. For example Top Dawg
Entertainment, Funk Volume, Family Tree and Kalawa Jazz.
What
is a record deal?
A
record deal is a contract/agreement between a record company and an
artist/composer which gives the record company rights over the music made by an
artist. In simple terms, a record deal is a partnership between a record
company and an artist. The artist makes the music, and the record label sells
it to the people. The record label owns the music. Contracts are not the same,
they are negotiated. Usually an artist would have a 4 album deal with a record
company. This means the artist must make 4 albums for the record company.
What
does it mean to be signed?
Now
that you know what a record company is and what is a record deal, It will be
easy to understand what being signed means. Being signed basically means you as
an artist are a partner with the record label. It means you work for the label
and the label works for you. It means the labels own your music/compositions.
No contract is the same, different artists have different contracts, depending on
the negotiations. What normally happens is, a record company will gives you a
sum of money likeu 400 000. You will have to use that money for everything
related to the production of the album, like buying beats, booking studios,
paying for features, transport cost and sample clearances. Furthermore you
might be required to record more than 50 tracks(Slave) and the label will
choose the ones that will make a profitable album. This is where beef between labels and
artists usually begins. It caused by the fact that an artist might want a
certain track to be on an album but the label might not allow it. Depending on
the contract, but in most cases the label has the final say. When the album is
out, the labels takes their money back, so the money they gave you is like a
loan or capital. All the album sales will cover the cost of production then if
the sales are greater than the cost of production then there will be profits
which the label and artist will share depending on the agreed upon percentage.
For example, the artist and label might split 50/50 or 60/40. However there are
other parties involved like booking agents, managers which also get a share of
the profits, so the artist might end up getting 20 or 30 percent. Listen to ‘Macklemore
and Ryan Lewis- Jimmy Lovine’
Hope
this opens your eyes a little bit about record labels and getting signed. This
is just a general idea about record companies, there is more to it than this
and more politics, I just want to open your eyes a little so you know what you
getting into.
Look
out for an article about the advantages and disadvantages of getting signed coming
soon. Otherwise download the new single by Genius Muzik Gang- Ngeke Ulunge Lana (DOWNLOAD)
