Rapping, not kidding, please help? - happywilderness295 - 03-24-2014 04:12 PM
Ok, so my dream is to be a MC, I can free style, write, and rap at an intermediate level. I know it's very unlikely, but this is my dream, and for the past year, (I'm only 14) Whenever I've had time, I've devoted it to rapping, could someone please help me, I don't know what to do next, labels, sponsers, GETTING A FAN!, I haven't even rapped in front of an audience yet! I know I sound like a 9 year old kid, but if someone could just point me in the right direction, do they have rap tutoring? I live in AZ phoenix, and places here? Please help!

join your schools play or musical, it will help you feel comfortable in front of an audience. The practice and become know as the rapper guy of your school, people will start noticing you and you can see where you can go from there.

most 14 year olds dont have the lyricism or flow to be a professional rapper. but 1st thing is you should start rapping infront of other people and get there feedback. All mc's have 2 be able 2 perform in front of many people. keep practicing and stay true. dont make up fake shit. if your 14 chances are ur not slayin bricks, makin it rain or gangbangin. ok so what you need 2 do is record ur self. this is gunna cost some money. ull need like a recorder thing and a mic, then put your stuff on myspace, youtube, itunes, and facebook to get it out there. Also your gunna hv 2 learn how to count bars. If you dont know how to do that you wont sound good on a song or ovr a beat even if u hv good lyrics. I also suggest u do that thing where u take an instruemntal, freestyle ovr it and then put it on youtube. Examples:

also your gonna need to decide on a name. something that you have a reason 4 pickin cuz if u get fans there gunna wonder y ur named wat ur named. also if u wanna b really good stop listenin 2 artists like lil wayne
and u wanna record a demo eventually. but dude if ur serious dont give up

type in "freestyle rap" and "battle rapp" on youtube.
put your skillz out there and compete, don't be intimidated and don't take negative comments/haters personal or let it bring you down.
check out this site and test your skillz http://smftalk.com/1battleanybody.html
get your boys to vote for you if you think you could flow...
