ABOUT BLAP:
Most beat battles and producer showcases are tailored to industry professionals. Those who attend usually critique a producer on technical aspects of producing, but how would a general party crowd respond?

B.L.A.P. (Beats Love Alcohol Party) was created to answer that question. Take a group of producers - a couple of known veterans and a few undiscovered talents, put them in front of a party and tell them to play their beats - it's that simple. What separates B.L.A.P. from similar events is the interaction between the average music fan and the taste makers, as well as it's casual nature. Instead of the producers being judged by a panel of their peers, they are attempting to keep the crowd rocking.

There is no stage and patrons are encouraged to dance. For the party goer unaware of the scene it becomes a new experience. For the industry pro, the laid back atmosphere provides a more comfortable arena to network & find their next hit producer. Created in September of 2009 by !llmind, multi-platinum producer for artists like 50 Cent, Ludacris, Dr Dre & more, who knows who will show up for this event series. Soon enough, everyone will know at B.L.A.P.

Ways to Tune In 

The world of music production is one of the fastest growing in the industry. Still, there are very few outlets providing information on how to achieve a lucrative career as a producer. With 13 + years experience, !llmind (Produced records for Kanye West, 50 Cent, Eminem, Common, 2 Chainz, Scarface, Redman and Many More) has assembled a team to help fill that void. How do I get record placements? What is my favorite producer using in the studio? What is publishing and why is it important? What schools cater best to becoming a producer?

The life blood of the music industry is based on knowing the right people. BLAP On The Radio serves to not only answer those questions, but also to provide valuable insight from some of today’s most important power players (Artist Manager, Lawyers, Major Label A&R’s, Beat Brokers, and more)

Music producers rarely get the recognition they deserve. We’re here to analyze the various beat making techniques of some of our favorite producers. From J Dilla’s drum swing, to J.U.S.T.I.C.E. League’s lush musical arrangements, we plan to cover it all.

CLICK HERE TO STREAM THE SHOW Friday 10PM - 12AM EST GIDRadio.com

Anthony Marshall co-founded “LYRICIST LOUNGE” in 1991 at the age of 16. What started out as five MCs hanging out in a rehearsal room soon turned into one of Hip Hop’s most respected brands. Over time, Mr. Marshall would establish the Lyricist Lounge as a blueprint for discovering emerging Hip Hop MCs. Through several Lyricist Lounge branded albums, DVDs, tours, and television opportunities, artists such as Mos Def, Eminem, 50 Cent, Talib Kweli, Slick Rick, Sean “Diddy” Combs, Notorious B.I.G., Q-Tip, Common, The Roots, and the Black Eyed Peas all became a part of its respected history.  In 1999, Mr. Marshall helped to develop a Hip Hop musical/comedy sketch show called “The Lyricist Lounge Show”. The concept was brought to MTV and the show became one of their highest rated programs.

In 2005, Anthony Marshall helped to launch “CURRENT TV” (Al Gore’s TV network) and the company’s VC2 (Viewer Created Content) initiative. His job was to manage a portfolio of film producers who consistently created content for the network.  In 2010, Marshall joined GTM Inc (a Marketing and Advertising company) as an Executive Producer for the company where he helped to produce Web Content for Smirnoff.  Later, he helped to develop a Branded Content reality television series about DJs, also funded by Smirnoff, called MASTER OF THE MIX. The show enjoyed two seasons on both BET and is now returning for a 3rd season on VH1.

Ways to Tune In 

The world of music production is one of the fastest growing in the industry. Still, there are very few outlets providing information on how to achieve a lucrative career as a producer. With 13 + years experience, !llmind (Produced records for Kanye West, 50 Cent, Eminem, Common, 2 Chainz, Scarface, Redman and Many More) has assembled a team to help fill that void. How do I get record placements? What is my favorite producer using in the studio? What is publishing and why is it important? What schools cater best to becoming a producer?

The life blood of the music industry is based on knowing the right people. BLAP On The Radio serves to not only answer those questions, but also to provide valuable insight from some of today’s most important power players (Artist Manager, Lawyers, Major Label A&R’s, Beat Brokers, and more)

Music producers rarely get the recognition they deserve. We’re here to analyze the various beat making techniques of some of our favorite producers. From J Dilla’s drum swing, to J.U.S.T.I.C.E.
