Forum Challenge: Anyone know how to rap?
Sun, 05/05/2013 - 04:36
I'd like to break it down into a skill set that can be practiced and learned. I'm going to learn how to rap, I would welcome any of you on here who want to develop the skill set as well.
Are there good youtube videos on developing this skill set? Who here knows what's up. We can discuss the fundamentals and work on breaking it down into drillable exercises.

umm, do you mean freestylin or actually composing lyrics for a rap? Jay-z's Decoded is a good book to start with. He breaks down all of his lyrics from classic hits, and he himself is a master at wordplay...

When I went to New York, a couple wings and I went to this bar in Brooklyn. We were just dickin around and busting rhymes. We even used it as an opener. There was this on girl who was there with another girl and two guys. You could tell she got around, but she was a lot of fun. We ended up just rapping with them.
The girl was pretty buzzed and even said that she hadn't rapped in her life. She was just saying anything and busting random rhymes. She had us all laughing.
She said that she wished she was Jay-Z's ho' so she can get all his dough. lol

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IWZelu4m1cY <<<< Funny as fuck!
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JG6avbSDLn8 <<< In my opinion one of the best lyricists out there, this is meaningful rap calibrated to one common theme
It seems that the rule of thumb is that every other line ryhmes
I have no idea how to post them directly, it would be great if someone can do it, or explain to me how :)

Nice! I've seen this so many times, this guy nailed the problem. I feel like the issue is also vocal projection. E.g. if you don't know how to "drop" it or punch it, it comes off weak.
Of course this is my pure whiteboy opinion. I am just starting out here ;)

Here's an old track of mine I digged up:
http://www.4shared.com/mp3/skag9u7z/Old_Track_8_Bars.html
No longer record music, but the skillset never goes away. Used to be extremely obsessed with it.
Work on rhythm first, then delivery, then content. But honestly, the latter is irrelevant.
A great rapper can turn garbage into gold purely off his flow and attitude.
Let me know if you have any questions

tl;dr - basically this crackhead who became a meme for yellin "you better hide yo wife and yo kids"
I've realized free association is pretty high up in my skillset. I love wordplay and off the wall type of shit...it can be very weird if miscalibrated but when i get it right...lord do i get it right :)
