Bro just to see that there is someone as humble and informative as you is inspiration. Rapping usually has a negative and a hostile vibe.

I think starting a How To Rap record deal would be cool, like some time in the next year or something. I think it would really get people doing it together like a family and take it more seriously and make How To Rap more noticed. Thanks Drew!

+How To Rap Thank you. I realized I am in split focus. I started making beats three or two months ago, and trying to get real good at rapping at the same time. Now that you pointed it out, I have been doing less. At least I practice rapping when I make my beats because when I am mixing I just freestyle. I actually got pretty damn good at making beats, and rapping in such a short amount of time. I can make nice/good beats in like 1 hour. I think I should just make new beats every couple of hours, and freestyle then release. So I would have about Six or more songs a day.

@SynthographerJames 8 жыл бұрын

Beat making would be a necessity for me because it teaches how to hear and understand music and bars better, therefore making me a better rapper...plus for 13 tracks an album i just save over a 1,000 ti 10,000 plus from buying 13 exclusive beats...so therefore i save a ton of money and don't go broke on music production...mixing and mastering and graphic design would be the final two necessity to cut all the cost of production therefore give you the wiggle room financially to focus your money on other things like a record label or a business of some sort...

Yo my name is Emmanuel and I'm from South Africa,I started rapping when I was 13 but I'm only going into song writing now.Here are one of my verses,let me know if you think it good or not."Rich individual,who likes to give handouts/Few friends residual,used to make it rain now there's a drought"

@alechaynes1463 8 жыл бұрын

Hey, cool. Maybe you can add internal rhymes. The second line has way too many syllables. Unless you can spit it, and it sounds cool I wouldn't recommend it. A lot of famous poets like shakespeare have ten syllables because it is typically a breath. So I recommend about 10, you can go 11 or lower if you want. I say it is better to go lower because then it is easier to spit clearly.

Man thank you so much for this like man you're the best stay blessed... I'm a producer but my goal is to become a legend in the rap game.. I love making beats cause that's something I can do in my sleep but I don't want to just produce I've been watching all your vids and I'm determined to learn but the dilemma is I'm not quite there as a producer but I also want to start rapping so what should I do? Btw beats is the only way I get money and stay relevant with music thank you so much

This is dope, big fan, but I have an opinion coming, I think your channel could get big gains from clever editing, the video length can and (IMP) should be condensed, a big struggle on KZfaq is attention retainment, you have the content to justify attention and I think condensing through editing will increase retention and thus increase engagement. To use your logic, if you have a successful KZfaq career as your focus sharp editing skills would be a necessity. Thanks for the video

@johnscallon4901 8 жыл бұрын

I'm gunna put my foot in my mouth... I'd first look at your data to first discover is you are having retention issues with your videos. I just assume people are dropping off mid way though the video but I'd check that in the data. Idk maybe most your viewers do watch the whole way through and love the unedited content and focusing on editing might be fucking stupid So yeah I'd check the data

why complain about free informant especially when its towards something positive?

@crushsatan 8 жыл бұрын

Official Candymane I have no complaint about the informant. I just asked an ethical question. For example if you have a son who wants to rap; of course you support him doing something musical and creative; you may even like rap yourself; but if you know he wants to rap about killing and other forms of destruction, do you really want to buy him that microphone? Do you really want to pay for that studio time. It's a question I ask myself.
