Multi-Platinum Hip Hop Producer Reveals Secrets of the Music Industry

The Source Magazine Showcases the Highest Selling Book on Hip Hop Production

(PRWEB) December 3, 2005 -- In the December 2005 issue of The Source Magazine, Multi-Platinum Hip Hop Producer Sahpreem A. King is interviewed on his newly released book “Gotta Get Signed: How to Become a Hip-Hop Producer”. Sahpreem debunks popular misconceptions in the music industry. Especially noted is his stance on what makes a producer:

“With the invention of technology, everyone and their neighbor has the ability to make beats. Whether they download a cracked version of Fruity Loops or actually come out of their pockets and buy an AKAI drum machine. It still doesn’t make them a producer. Eventually, if they practice long enough, they may make a hot beat. The odds are definitely in their favor, but that still doesn’t make them a producer. What makes a producer? What makes a producer is the ability to take a hot beat, whether you made it or not, and turn it into a hot song. ” states Sahpreem A. King.

Sahpreem’s down-to-earth “tell it like it is” writing style is a fun read, laced with nothing but the facts.

Since February 2005 “Gotta Get Signed” has only been available from major bookseller such as Barnes & Noble and Walden bookstores. In an effort to make it convenient for readers to get their hands on this information and to allow them to get a preview of his next book release long before it is due, he offers online ordering at http://www.becomeahiphopproducer.com . Readers can place an order online and the book “Gotta Get Signed” mailed to them. The bonus, not offered when purchased at local bookstores, is that they immediately receive a limited advanced copy of “Surviving the Game: The Guerilla Business of Hip Hop”.

Both books allow the artist, producer, or anyone remotely interested in the business a birds-eye view in the music industry from a realistic view point.
