Would anyone else be interested in a "making hip-hop" community?

Considering how small Lemmy still is, I reckon it would be best to include multiple aspects - music production, rapping, freestyling, turntablism/scratching, beatboxing. Could always split some of those out into separate communities later if needed.

I would see it as a complement to the !hiphopheads@sopuli.xyz community, but more focused on how to make, rather than sharing cool stuff others have made.

this community gets like 1 post per day. i dont think your topic would need its own considering that low volume. just use this one.

Hrm. Maybe that's a fair call, although the side-bar seems pretty focused on content, not how-to type stuff..

I'll try posting some some production related stuff and see how it goes.

Agree with the other commenter. Niche communities are fun, but take a lot of effort. I'd start posting to the general community and spin it off when it is big enough to warrant it

My instance doesnt seem to work well with playback and redirecting from the feed scares me, otherwise I'd probably be alot more supportive of the music communities on Lemmy in general.

[FRESH] tags should only be applied to official music & music videos, not leaks, interviews, articles, art, live footage, etc. [SHOTS FIRED] should only be used for legitimate beef, not jokes or competition among artists.

Song posts must follow the 'Artist - Title (Description)' format with 80 character or less descriptions. Hashtagged keywords & emojis in titles are not allowed.

Recommendations for Posting

These aren't rules, just some recommendations to make things easier for visitors.

  1. When posting a FRESH ALBUM, use a service like Songwhip to generate a page with links to all streaming services.

  3. Use YouTube or Songwhip when posting individual tracks

The idea here is to make stuff posted here widely accessible to anyone visiting.
