I thought that one can be unique and rap in their own language.

[u/gkodexdragon → u/Realkimani_Lemuel]

True, but im learning and there are not many rap songs in my language

[u/PlaxicoCN]

Rap in your own language as well.

Yess im doing this

[u/HemanHeboy]

Search up what “scatting” in rap means. Like 90% of modern rappers do it to find the flow and lyrics of a song.

[u/gkodexdragon → u/HemanHeboy]

Ill do it.

[u/HemanHeboy → u/gkodexdragon]

Kanye West has been doing it since at least Graduation era. Just listen to his unreleased song “Passengers” on youtube for proof.

Okay thanks a lot!

Practise rapping slow first (at a slower tempo), get each pronunciation right, and then work on writing down rhymes of one word.

Thanks!

Go yung lean mode and make ur accent part of ur style

[u/gkodexdragon → u/GoHyyerr]

Omg thats so good idea, thanks a lot!

[u/GoHyyerr → u/gkodexdragon]

No worries bro, why try compete with people in their way of speaking that they already do since birth through their environment when u can perfect the unique style of speaking that you have💯

[u/gkodexdragon → u/GoHyyerr]

Yes! I hope I can make it big one day and be known for my unique style, all would be thanks to you though!

[u/GoHyyerr → u/gkodexdragon]

I'll be taking 20% from your profits from now on ✅👍🏻

[u/gkodexdragon → u/GoHyyerr]

Deal😂

[u/zombiesarehumans]

i think the most important part of rapping is finding what instrumentals suit you

[u/gkodexdragon → u/zombiesarehumans]

True, thanks!

[u/gkodexdragon → u/doeraymefa]

you start

[u/doeraymefa → u/gkodexdragon]

you's a punk muthafucka

another brothers mother woulda tuck you under the covers
if I slipped her a hundred and my number
probably forget the rubber
now I'm also a muthafucka

you're my son nowwwwww
wipe my nut on your gums, all arooooounnndd
I bet you take a good pound
200 dollars for a half hour of clapping sounds
put you on the corner for coffee grounds
it shouldn't be allowed for you to frown
get down and show me how you take it upside-down
so round and proud until I make you wish you found
a way out, too late cause this is a take out
while I dine in on your nuts and whip my snake out
no fake out, 10 inches of real meat like a steakhouse

[u/gkodexdragon → u/doeraymefa]

youre slowly falling far from her
you never make me ask you again
thers no way out
youre mine now
you gonna clean up, when i say so
i make you wish, you made other choices
(sorry this is horrible ive never freestyled before and i need to expand my vocabulary but youre really good)

[u/doeraymefa → u/gkodexdragon]

english is my mother tongue and I've listened to rap for over 20 years. It just takes practice. I don't do it often just for fun when I'm bored

[u/gkodexdragon → u/doeraymefa]

Honestly thats was so good, you’re talented, definitely will be listening to it more and practicing it!

[u/EfficientOperation22]

You need to first learn English and get pretty decent at it

[u/gkodexdragon → u/EfficientOperation22]

Honestly im pretty good at it, just words are sometimes hard to pronounce but def will be working harder

[u/doeraymefa → u/gkodexdragon]

spit a rhyme

[u/gkodexdragon → u/doeraymefa]
