Youtube Beat Videos

[diobeat]

Hi everyone.
I'm new to this forum. I just created a beat store account and currently designing my website. I want to start uploading videos to youtube, but having trouble sourcing graphics. I see on themeforest there are some realvisualizersualisers to buy, but currently, since I've been spending money on setting up my business, I'm looking for a free alternative to creating youtube videos. At least for now.
I plan on using my native video editor on my laptop (or perhaps an online movie maker) with canva and some stock graphics. But I am having trouble finding a place to source quality graphics that are RELEVANT to beats, particularly hiphop, dancehall, afrobeat, etc., and are eye candy worthy.

Does anyone have any advice about where I can source graphics for my beats?

Please know that many of the vids you see being done by producers are by producers who have already made their names in the commercial marketplace offline and nowadays people's attention spans are competing for screen time and music is solely background noise to doing other things that isn't listening to music.

Focus on not having a beat store as rappers aren't paying for beats as Millennials expect free everything, even music, so instead of selling beats find some artists in your location and focus on them.

Get a graphic designer and a web designer (separate) and get them to design you a logo and a site, don't rely on Beatstars and any other sites as sites leave. Get an Instagram, maybe Soundcloud, Snapchat (but no FB) and Twitter.

Keep all of your Internet presence clean e.g. no thots, porn, etc.

Thanks for your response OGBama. I do plan on working with local artists, and using my connections with those higher in the industry. But I realize I need to have an online catalog and place to market and make my beats commercially available, even as I collaborate with others. One thing that's always being asked of me is "where can I find your music/beats", even from people higher up in the industry, and it's getting embarrassing that I don't a place to direct them to (that I can also use to monetize). Hence why I feel I need a website and store, as well as visually attractive content on youtube.
