There is a lot of information that is out there when it comes to learning

how to rap, but if you start by focusing on the steps listed below you

should be just fine. So here are six steps that you can use starting today.

Take Learning How To Rap Serious - One of the biggest reasons that I

find that people fail at learning how to rap is because they do not take it

serious. If you are not serious you will definitely not succeed with

rapping or with anything for that matter. You must approach this with

some sort of passion or you will get no where in a hurry. You should be

willing to dedicate some time to learning and perfecting this craft. Once

you have that you will be ready to learn to rap.

Listen To All Kinds Of Rappers - I say this because your average rap fan

only listens to those rappers that they like, but when it comes to

learning how to rap listening to all types of rappers will make it easier

for you to learn. Why you ask? Well, listening to a variety of artist will

allow you to evaluate and implement some of their qualities that will

help you to become the ultimate rhyme spitter and performer.

Read A Ton - This is definitely one of the most effective but underrated

pieces of advice that I can give on this subject. Reading is a great way to

Learn To Rap

open up your mind and keep the creative juices flowing. I know you

may already have some favorite magazine that you may read on a

regular basis but when I say read a lot I mean read a lot of different

things. I'm talking everything from newspapers to long novels. Read it

all. Trust me it helps a lot.

Start Writing Short Rhymes - At this point you are serious about

wanting to learn to rap, you have studied other rappers and you have

been reading a lot. Now it's time to start writing some rhymes. I didn't

say songs I said rhymes. Start writing 8-10 line rhymes about anything.

Do not try to rap them yet just write them down. After you have a couple

written start to memorize them. Just get these rhymes in your head.

Rap Over A Instrumental - Get you a instrumental from somewhere.

You can find tons of them all over the web. Once you have some pick

one that you like and spit one of your short written raps that you should

have in your head. Now put a couple of your written raps together and

really try to stay on beat with the instrumental. Now just repeat this step

with the ones above and do it again and again. You will notice that your

rhymes will come easier and your creativity will be greatly expanded.

Practice, Practice, Practice - Yes, there is more to learning how to rap

then what is listed here but the steps that are listed in this articles are

applied you will definitely be getting off on the right foot. Just make

some time everyday to work on your rapping. You know what they say,

"practice makes perfect".
