Quote (eboyd) yeah, once you get used to it that shit will be quick. practice at home on a bunch of different beats, try different flows, and when you find the one you want, just fucking spit. It feels like this is just a me and erik convo.......were the fuck r the other people at?!?!?!?

Yeah, I got a question, it might be strange... How to discover what is my own style? I still got a problem with it. I got two, COMPLETLY DIFFERENT tones of voice when I rap, hardcore mad low tone, somethin between Method Man and Ice T and smooth laid-back tone, somethin like Snoop or Warren G. Problem is when I staring to spit I always catching myself that I rappin with styles of other rappers. Flow, voice tone and shit sounds like their own.....

Quote (mistaflo) omg erik i was reading that stuff u posted its like rap science!! lol i just like writing complex/clever punchlines and thinking abstractly... i d k bout all tht other stuff. well not all of it most of it. haha yeah! shit can get complex and confusing as hell, but what it all boils down to is being creative and natural with it. i basically said that in the most complex/confusing way possible it was for a reason though. that way people who are able to comprehend it can dissect it and really try new things and experiment and have an understanding of why hip hop is so much more complex than they think and also so they can experiment more and create new forms of hip hop rather than just being another dope emcee, which we already have 3,000,000 of as is and we don't need any more typical cats like that. Quote (EYAR15) this shit is confusing indeed it is. overall it just comes down to what works for you though. we can break it down 1000 ways but you'll never be dope if you don't learn how to trust your instincts.

Pussy is somethin I live in, hip-hop is somethin I live with Plus there's no subject matter thing, cos real emcee can turn weak subject matter into unstoppable fire Quote (eboyd) you're on the right path. as you keep going with it you will develop your own style through theirs. that's what Em did when he was spitting like Nas and then he dropped SSLP and it was a sealed deal from there. lol, so I guess I gotta make my own "Infinite" like Em did

Everyone is different. Maybe you will find your style before you drop an album. Just do what you are doing, but practice some of the techniques I mentioned and see if they fit you and you will find your style. It's just a matter of time.

Quote (eboyd) -two words: breath control. this is vital to any serious emcee. it can make or break your career. if you do not learn strategic breathing on tracks you WILL run out of breath and it WILL sound bad. i've seen many cats with breath control problems (including myself for a while) actually physically write in their breathing points on paper. this becomes less necessary as you gain skill because an experienced emcee will memorize their breath points by instinct, especially if he/she is doing shows because in order to do shows you need to memorize the verse(s) inside out anyways. if it isn't memorized you will sound like an idiot. that's what i gotta work on

Quote (Pensmoke) I just rap. lol see, that's easy because you are a natural at it. i'm pretty natural myself but i still choose to study different styles of wordplay, alliteration, rhyme scheme, writing organizational technique etc. and some people need it. believe me. i was working with someone who needs to study A LOT of these things today. it wasn't pretty. oh, btw, one more thing, contrary to popular belief, you should NEVER be afraid to USE A DICTIONARY!!! it's embarrassing putting a track out there where you use the wrong word. sometimes it is simply safe to check. trust me. saves you from looking like an idiot sometimes.
