Producer Conference Comes To Miami, Sha Money XL & The Runners Serve As Panelists



Hip-Hop mega producers Sha Money XL, Cool & Dre, The Runners and others will be making history at Miami’s first annual Beats on the Beach music seminar this fall.

Production company iStandard and DBHH Management created the producer-influenced event, expected to serve as a networking opportunity for industry insiders and up-and-coming people to meet one another.

“If you guys are serious about yourself, invest in yourself, get down here [and] make it to Miami,” iStandard’s J Hatch said in a statement. “We’re looking to have beat battles on the beach, showcases on the beach, panels on the beach. So be a part of it, man.”

The seminar will feature panelists Sha Money and The Runners alongside A&R reps including Shady’s Riggs Morales and Interscope West’s Danny Carter. Co-signing the company’s initiative, Sha exclusively told SOHH that fans should have high expectations.

“Anything masterminded and brought to you by iStandard is gonna be a great opportunity for anyone seeking knowledge [and] connects in the industry,” Hatch explained.

All nominees will be competing for recognition and various luxury prizes including a $4,000 keyboard.

"We’re giving away a Roland Fantom G6 to the winner of the producer showcase,” Hatch added. “We’re doing some major, major stuff that’ll all be announced through the website, battleofthebeats.com.”

The event’s website promises to “feature some of the most exhilarating interactive workshops and industry panels, producer and artist showcases, live “poolside” documentaries, sponsor & vendor exhibits” and a lot more.

Interested artists and producers will have an August 29th deadline to submit their works for consideration. If chosen, nominees will all be notified by September 1st with event instructions.

Beats on the Beach will take place October 9-11 in Miami, Florida.
