How To Freestyle

This is a great method of freestyle rapping.

Step 1 Clear your head

As mentioned in my first instructable:
http://www.instructables.com/id/How-To-Rap/

Rapping and Freestyling are two different things
Freestyling is on the the spot, requiring quick thinking.
Although you need an active mind,
you must not over-think what you are going to say.
That's why you must clear your mind and focus
on a single thought.
Then let your thoughts flow from there.

I just bought a mower, think it's a snapper, and a shovel so I can bury the rapper. He is up to his ears, in my back yard, I'm so sick of hearing this urban re-tard. It's not his race, cuz he is actually white, it's not his accent, but try as I might, I cannot simply turn the other cheek, this spastic orator thinks I'm a geek. His words aren't rhyming now, he is stammering with fright, His words have kept me up all night. So, with my yard maintenance tools, I put a flatop haircut on the scalp of this fool. No, he is ok, I'm not a killer, unless you count the mistakes I make with the tiller. That raps it up for me.

rc jedi 1.im black 2.this is my method 3.it seems as if u took my advice in an attempt to insult me 4.excuse me for trying to make my instructable professional looking and last but not least i hardly call that constructive criticism

[rc jedi]

NO personal insult intended. I don't know you, I'm sure you are a good sort if you took the time to make an instructable. I want more people to make instructables, whatever they are.I was in a silly mood. I really intended to tweak the rap culture itself, not you personally. I wasn't clear enough. But hey, artists must suffer to really become great. It's just that with rap, it's ok to say anything about anybody. Maybe not you in particular, but the "art" hides behind freedom of expression until I'm the one doing it. Then it's an "attack" on one of the following: race, age, culture, socio-economics, etc. It's a one way street with this stuff. Complain but not accept criticism. By the way, I love heavy metal, and what run dmc did with aerosmith's "walk this way" is a crime I may never forgive. hee hee!

I like heavy metal too, but the Run DMC/Aerosmith version of "Walk This Way" is one of the few hybrids that I actually enjoyed. I agree that almost every single other hybrid (especially the ones that snatch music from other songs and do lyrics over them) has been about as appetizing as a peanut butter and Draino sandwich. Also, yes, nowadays, rap does tend to hide behind "freedom of speech" until it becomes personal. (don't get me started on Luke Campbell and his kids.) It wasn't always like that, though; it was once about skill as opposed to bling and being offensive, and the part of the reason I love the above song is because it's a reminder of that.

ALL RIGHT THEN!!! Sorry if i kinda snapped but it was only my 2nd instructable so, i wanted to see good results

[tonystarx]

freestyling seems to be eazier when you associate topics like " i keep it crackin like buttcheeks" see (crackin=buttcheecks)

[bmlbytes]

Don't completely listen to these guys. The instructable covers the basic ideas behind freestyle. This is a hard topic to try on your second instructable. Maybe you bit off more than you can chew?

[DjProToJeeX]

basic ideas aye......... "rocket science is hard, but not to a rocket scientist"

[DjProToJeeX]

have you seen the new south park this week....... epic........... were not your guys, friend. :)

[bmlbytes]

I'm not your friend buddy!

[DjProToJeeX]

im not your friend, guuuuuuuuuuuuyyyyyyyyyyyy!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[DjProToJeeX]

man i messed up and just realized it im not your buddy, guuuuuuuuuuuuyyyyyyyyyyyyy!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[islandjuice]

DjProToJeeX i correct, it's best to cover the actual art of free styling first before you try to teach battle rap, teach the flow before you teach anything else get the mind set of your students into flowing first of all. There's flowing then there's yo momma rap the latter of which you attempt to portrait. Kudo on your instructable tho, every little bit counts.

[DjProToJeeX]

alright 2 thumbs down is what i give. its false and misleading. and does not actually focus on freestyling it focus's on freestyle battling. also its very thin and a chop of your how to rap guide. which that is a serious of copy and pastes from various points. so kudos
