How To Make Money From Your Videos
1. Call around and ask independent clothing lines to back you up. There are millions of clothing lines out there. There is no excuse not to have a clothing backer. I guarantee you will find one to agree to pay you at least $100-$500 to wear their gear in your video.
2. If you have a music video coming out, please do yourself a favor and start a crowdfunding account. Your fans that love your music will be sure to back you up.
3. There was once a time where VEVO accounts were only for signed artists of Universal Music. Now, the portal has successfully been opened for all artists to use VEVO to make money from plays, royalties and ads. You can also partner up directly with YouTube if you create a lot of video content on top of your music videos.
4. Always make sure the description of you music video has a download link where people can purchase the song or the video. Yes, if you have a really dope video with great appeal, you can sell the actual video on iTunes as well.
5. If you can guarantee a certain amount of views, you can include a short 15 second commercial for a company or product in your music video. These commercials should go in the beginning and the end of the video. That allows you to sell two commercial spaces.

Top 5 Reasons DJs Make The Best Producers
Those who know their history understand that DJing is the fundamental element of Hip Hop. Before the MPC, SP1200 or FLStudio, Emcees rocked over instrumental beds provided by DJs. The role of today’s hip hop producers is the natural evolution of this relationship, and here are 5 reasons DJs make the best producers.
If you want to be Hip Hop’s next big Producer, don’t purchase Fruityloops or Reason.... BUY SERATO! While that may sound odd, a quick look at some of Hip Hop’s top hit makers will clearly illustrate the strong connection between DJing and great production. Just google the discography of DJ Premier, Dr. Dre, Timbaland or Swizz Beats, all of which cut their teeth as DJs prior to becoming some of the most influential producers in hip hop.
