You know what, think what you want to think. To me there's no fucking difference, their both just terms.
There's a huge difference and you thinking otherwise doesn't change that fact.
To me it sounds like your trying to identify the word "producer" with people who only make money off the shit they make. Hell nah, there's a lot of people out there that make music and don't make money off their shit because they don't have the connections or they do it just as a hobby and too me their still producers or beatmakers, whichever term you want to use. It's just a fucking term.
I didn't say or imply anything about making money. Money has nothing to do with whether or not you know what you're talking about.
Anyways, I wasn't trying to downgrade Just Blazes status or anything, just saying in general, that if your making music your still "producing" sound, and if it's up to you, you can call yourself a producer or beatmaker, whichever one you feel the most comfortable with.
A person can call themselves whatever they want but it doesn't make it true or accurate. Maybe this will help... Since a cameraman is actually shooting the video, can he legitimately call himself a film director? No, not unless he really is a film director
in addition to being a cameraman.
Fuck that shit homie, never downgrade yourself, your giving the word Producer too much credit. I think your getting it confused with Mix Engineer.
No, I'm not confusing anything. I (and others as well like Heresy) have already explained what these titles mean and what responsibilities they usually come with in other posts. If you want to use these terms then I strongly recommend you look those posts up and learn what they mean because you clearly aren't getting it.
I think I know why you and so many others are so confused over this... Because a lot of composers, writers, musicians, etc. also wind up being producers as well. It's a matter of one person wearing many hats and you not being able to distinguish the actual job titles apart from one another.
For the sake of this not having to go any further, just take my advice and do your homework...
