Hip Hop download resources are abundant online, yet some are slow and unsafe. Here’s a list of places you can find hip hop downloads for a rap beats, albums, singles and mixtapes for cheap…
Mp3.com. This website offers legal downloads of your favorite hip hop artists, songs and the top new releases. While not solely focused on the rap genre, it does offer an extensive selection of artists; plus, you can always pick up a George Clinton album while you’re there!
EZ-Tracks is another hip hop download resource worth its weight in gold. Most of their tracks are free, meaning you can explore a wide variety of sub-genres in hip hop without breaking the bank. Admittedly, they tend to focus on mainstream rappers and singers, which makes it hard to find solid underground hip hop artists, though their popular selection is quite varied. For underground artists, I recommend the following source…
Internet radio is a great way to find new music, and doesn’t require any downloads. My personal favorite is Pandora; simply enter in the name of an artist, song or keyword and Pandora serves up a playlist of groups it thinks you would be interested in. You can vote each song up or down as its played, and Pandora adjusts its recommendations accordingly. I’ve found tons of great new artists using this website!
For the best selection in mixtapes, top instrumentals and beats, check out RapGodfathers. Not only can you download those underground hits you’ve been searching for, there’s a huge selection of mixtapes and remixes of classic tracks you’ve never even heard of. I highly recommend this site for anyone in search of some under the radar tracks. They also have an impressive selection of videos, including major record releases to those that never made it to MTV.
Remember to check out the legal aspect of any hip hop download. While many claim it is legal, some are copyright infringement. Others, such as Pandora, have negotiated a special license that allows them to play a certain number of songs for a listener per hour. This prevents hackers from downloading every song imaginable from an artist (at least in theory) while providing the artist with exposure they would not have had otherwise. The ones mentioned here are legal, safe and fast: stick to these and you should have no worries about picking up your favorite rap artists top new beats, music and videos.
