A high school dropout, the founder and CEO of BeatStars has always been a music junkie. He started off as a rapper himself, creating BeatStars to try and entice producers to send him vibes that he can use for his own material. Eventually, it blew up to become the most prominent online music production marketplace.
With everybody wanting to be the next big thing in music, BeatStars is the perfect platform for somebody looking for an inexpensive method of creation. If you look at Lil Nas X's "Old Town Road" success, which was bolstered by a beat that YoungKio had uploaded to BeatStars, it's clear that anybody can win with Batshon's website.
