    Look @ These Numbers! Terrible!!!!

    online sales are not counted to billboard charts .. yet at least .. people are still buying music the format has shifted .. itunes,ringtone,amazon.. are taking the cake instead of the cd stores. the indusrty is alive but the people who buy cd in the store are fading... spanish no offense...

    PRODUCERS...Do you exaggerate your instrumentals?

    i agree with lil drama ... in all situations though u need to keep the listeners attention .. a short dramatic intro and get right into it ... if ur intro is long it better be damn good cuz people who listen to beats all day will skip right to the next track if ur intro is drawn out and boring.

    Rolling Off EQ

    yeah i agree with dahk just cut it dont slope it imo ... IMO sloping is for "tone and shaping" and cutting is more for "correcting" ...like u a see a specific problem and u need to mess with that specific frequency.
