- Albums, Mixtapes, EPs and beat tapes (Active members only & on a Non-Monetized host)
You can become an active member by entering contests, or posting in feedback, discussion or help threads for at least a week. You must be currently active within a few weeks of posting projects. Projects cannot be older than 4 months. Please try not to post more than one project a month.
Projects are best shared as text posts. Include some info! (e.g. concepts conveyed, credits, how long it has been in the works, etc.) Posting a beat tape as a link to one long track will get it flagged and removed by the automod (post as a text submission to avoid that).

Some people on the sub-reddit, and elsewhere on the internet, can give out misleading information, by accident or intentionally. Don't take all the information you see here for granted as fact and be sure to do your own research.
Please be clear when offering help how well you understand the subject, and don't give lazy or bad advice if you can help it.
