Does anyone here freestyle/rap?

A thread to get advice, start rapping, learn to flow, rhyme, share beats, feed off of eachother
if anyone else is into it that is..


Here's something I just came up with this morning

Back Livin in society
the man who once was a tree
Reincarnated
from the trees
please believe I was Lyrically
given a chance and to second glance made from leaves
the animations so just
from the pixelated rust, the dust
eatin away at me I can't believe
This
So crazy
I've made my own theories
come up the world not born to be born
but
born to be scorn, a thorn
in the government's ass today
The Lyracism Terrorist, at best
What a way,
To Be Free.

I'm in a thrash band and here are some lyrics to our song "Blood On My Skate"

"Fucked up skatin' through the night
Bombin' hills till dark turns light
Slammin'' beers we hit the streets
Hit the ground and break some teeth

Too drunk to stand
There's blood on my skate
I fell down again
There's blood on my skate
Dude I'm so fucked
I can't feel my face
There's blood on the ground
And blood on my skate"


I know this isn't anything close to what you asked for, it's way awesomer.

Well it's very repetitive for a rap haha
but as a thrash band it's good..
:cool:

the only rap ive ever written:

When I first started skatin bout 7 years ago
All there was to know was the mainstream status quo
Once I heard of Rodney Mullen my creativity starts to flow
My very own brand of freestyle starts to grow

Its all good if my tricks aint got pop
cuz damn straight my fipideefloos flop
Thanks To Mullen Im addicted I cant stop
oldschool, thats the style I drop

I chill out, I set myself free
I dont care what you want me to be
One things for sure, I skate for me

Just go out and do what I like
Dont care if im getting it right
One things for sure, I skate for life

360 boneless, no comply shuvits
1440 manual spins, you gotta love it
Sure, I catch my kickflips a foot undrground
But you know what I found, this kinda shit is profound

You see I, dont skate for the money or fame
And I, dont care if tricks are ugly or lame
I Just do my own thing, for the love of the game
its one in the same, (it's a desire)
that can never be tamed, refrain

Yeah I listened to that on your tube haha
that's cool man I dug it..
I don't think I could rhyme skateboarding though I'm so far underground with it I just name things that probably exist.

It's like the scene around me is so competitive little kids will come up to me and dog on me so that kind've pushed me away from skateparks I just try to find spots whenever I do skate.

Nice Pawn, boneless' for the win. I prefer boneless 180 fingerflips though lol.

I can't boneless but
I have done a sal flip to wall plant
those are really fun.

i want to start a lil bit, but being a white boy from the suburbs in mass dont give me shit to rap about, me and my friend will rap, usually just stupid shit incorporating our friends into raps but thats it, just stupid remix shit, but its fun

Ha I am a white boy from the suburbs dude
You just have to start thinking the rest is in training

seaman spits hot fire

I used to make hip hop music in my late teens/early 20s. Mostly instrumental hip hop, downtempo, lounge, trip hop, whatever you want to call it. I have a few songs where I'm on the mic, but I never really considered myself an emcee and definitely didn't have any serious freestyle skills.

You can check out some of my stuff HERE! 'Go' is the only song up there with me on the mic.

I find it incredibly tough to translate written raps into spittin' raps because so much relies on cadence/flow/vocal timbre/word emphasis/etc. So to be honest anything looks (and 'sounds' in my mind) kinda boring until someone breathes life into it.

im gonna come to your house, put a gun in your mouth rap lyrics. EASY!

Writing is the only thing that will improve your freestyle. The more you work with rhymes the faster they'll come and in time, you'll be able to string together accurate phrases.

I haven't done it in years but here's some of my old tracks.

Completely agree..
Diggin everyone's stuff I don't normally get into Beat-Chemist's approach but It was different, It's good for change once in a while.. good stuff.

Yeah man music can take you wherever you want to go with it just stay focused and work at it whenever you get the chance.

i started writing one a long time ago while i was still riding but never finished it:

Can you hear this? Shouts from the Monk...
and like Pepe Le-pew, I'm bout to blow out some skunk..
now...
Skateboarding and verbal attacks are my premises,
however dislocations and body racks are my nemesis....
See how the speed is the basis, ya know?
because you try to keep up, but yet ya know not what the pace is....
cuz I keep you in stasis, paralyzed....
and that ya know the verbs fly, but yet, hidden is my motive- disguised.
I flow like water on rocks, son; call me Niagara...
ain't "up" to the game? 1. try some Viagra....

i forgot the rest lol... :D

i lay beats,
masterful feats.
but you and your crew are fuckin cornier than a soup with leets.
me and my niggas are harder than sheets
of sheetrock.
step back and taste the buckshot.
all you faggots ever do is suck the cock.
knock knock. yeah bitch, thats me at your door.
bust it in, and drop your ass right to the floor.
i quickly advance and make a move on your whore.
please her in front of you, and leave her callin for more.

sorry if thats too profane.

Ha doesn't bother me..
it's how you say it not what you say so if that song was emphasized the cursing takes on a whole nother form..
interesting stuff you guys came up with..
Monk why did you stop man?

i dunno man lost interest i guess.... i started it bout the same time i got hurt and had to stop skating and Katrina hit the gulf coast and moved back up to north state........ we used to flow and play M-O-V-I-E on my prep crew at outback when i was the KM down there so i got a healthcare job and really forgot about the rest.

the MOVIE game is awesome and fun to do at work just like skate......

1st person in circle names a movie
2nd person has to name an actor in that movie
3rd person has to name a movie that actor has been in
4th names another actor in that movie etc etc
if someone tries to bluff you can call it once per 2 turns and if they are bullshitting then they get 2 letters...... otherwise you get 2 letters...

best game evur............its great working in a rest on a prep crew n stuff or around a campfire; that passes time in the night when nothing else is around

Hell yeah man.. and camping is the shit too.

Well this is my first attempt I wouldn't say it's a song it has no chorus
more of an attempt to flow/mess with lyrics you can actually hear me breathing in some parts but let me know what you think.

nice thats all you need for camping right here man : a deck of cards and the MOVIE game; plus, the deck of cars doubles as a trail marker in dire needs stuff them on a pine tree trunk while ur hiking ftw easy way back without cutting or ending/breaking any plants.

all I need is an acoustic guitar I usually sleep in a lawn chair by the fire
but good ideas for sure.

Were you listening to that beat while you were recording?

I'm going to take that as advice ha..
I couldn't I had no way to my timings were a little off and I realize it.

That's actually why I asked. Believe it or not it's pretty common for people to rhyme an acapella and then try to find a beat to match it or even to listen to a beat in their headphones while they record and try to match it up to the beat afterwards. 99 times out of a 100 though it ends up sounding off.

Try to get your hands on a recording program with multiple tracks. Adobe has one call Audition I think. That way you can play your instrumental in one track while you record to another.

Yep.. appreciate it but not happening on this operating system.. too unstable.
It was just to see what people thought of my lyrics thought maybe my motivation toward it would overcome clearly not to the people that know a lot about it.

ill destroy you at all hours.
more shocking than cold showers
best believe that im ready to drop you like twin towers
hijack your mind like a metaphorical plane.
bitch im the pilot now, so just hand over the reigns,
this kid is insane, homie betta step the fuck back.
got my gun against your head and i load it like click clack.
just pray to god that you survive this attack.
this is your captain speaking, please straighten your seat backs
cuz this the ride of your life,
i take this game to new heights.
remember my name when ya see it, big screen and big lights.
fuck ya life, yeah you know its the montra. entre-preneur,
i snatch ya wife and your whores,
put em all on the streets and im makin profit galore.
runnin these streets is gettin to be a chore,
unlike ya bitch,
she so easy cavemen could do her.
