[RED DRAGON]

Not really..its jus a mixtape.

I mean if you get really big doin it ya might wanna be ahead of the game n give the people sumthin nice.

I guess its all circumstantial..

 

[Pie-Rx]

Yes I do. If you are stamping your name on ANYTHING it should be as quality as possible. Our mixtapes arent the $1000 mastering or mixed at the big studio but we do our best with our facilities and let our REAL projects big mixed and mastered at the better spots. There are different levels of quality but there should always be SOME quality control...

i notice some artists have mentioned mixing and mastering their mixtapes.

i always thought mixtapes were supposed to have that un-mixed sound. I look at the format as a chance to show your raw talent without all the post-recording work.

do you think street albums should be mixed and mastered?

 

[LyfeCentenz]

yes because otherwise it'd probably sound like DOG SHIT... well at least get it mixed.. you could probably get away without the mastering

 

[LyfeCentenz]

yes because otherwise it'd probably sound like DOG SHIT... well at least get it mixed.. you could probably get away without the mastering

but i also know nothin about mixing or mastering... i'm used to live instrument recording and if that doesn't get mixed it sounds like shit

 

[mafioso22]

Some artist do waaaaay too many of them most artist should focus on putting out good albums, save those lyrics for a good album

 

[Darkshowdown]

anything a artist releases to the public should be mix and mastered

 

[illdude]

yes. quality over quantity

 

[8FIVE8]

fuck yeah they should mastered. Y would anybody want some half ass shit bumpin in theyre rides. DJ drops shouldnt be there either. DJ's should just should just shut up,make beats, mix and scratch. thats it.

 

[DexBeats]

..in this day and age most new artist dont even know that process or what that even means.

which is why you need to mix & master, so we don't mistake you for the rest of these bums on the market.

Get it mixed, cause your audience knows what a f*cked up .mp3 sounds like.

 

[Infamy Loc]

YES CUZ SHITTY MIXING WILL RUIN AN ENTIRE PROJECT AND REGARDLESS IF IT'S A MIXTAPE OR NOT I STILL EXPECT QUALITY IF IMA LISTEN TO IT.......

DESTROYED ON THE MIC

 

[Infantry Elite]

ill listen to any music that is good as long as the quality isnt obviously wack

 

[D.E.O.]

I mix and master peoples mixtapes all the time.. holla!

 

[niguardian]

any music thats put out and expected to be bought should be mixed and mastered wtf

and yall wonder why music sucks and nobodys buyin it anymore

 

[DREGS ONE]

do whatever the fuck you think sounds good, its your project.

 

[MaddDogg]

On the whole mixtapes is a bad idea in itself. When rappers go away from mixtapes they'll see better sales. Dont make any sense to have your best songs unmixed with voiceovers and dilutes your ability to spread music through clubs/DJs.

 

[YungGung]

good question

 

[SHOTS MUSIC]
