All right now we?re going to discuss finding your flow. Once again it goes back in the melody. Stuff like how you want to rock the beat in particular. Or how you want to rap or spit or lace your vocals over that beat. You should decide all this in your head then. One of tips, and my suggestions is this right here is little recorder you know it's simply something to record. It's where I catch my flow. Like if my flow was something like. I use to put up and rap. Me Ricky and Ivan. I never got high man, a gun by my side man, a piece of the pie man, I always be I man. That?s just me giving you an example of how might flow. I would catch that then. So I could have it for playback and what I was trying to do. That's just were, that's just an example you know. But I might actually feel that over the beat. So I would want to be able to capture my, just my flow. Those are my choice of words but a I might have a flow that would be like, you know what I'm saying I always tell rappers. It's not always what you say nowadays. It's how you say it. You see what I'm saying? So you know you might have a flow sometimes. Think about Fifty Cent what he said wasn't always hot. It was just hot the way he said it. When I pull up out front you see the Benz on dulls. We roll twenty deep so were drumming the club. Now that I role with Dre. I'm going to get some love. When I said like M and M all the girls just want a, but you know his flow his entire swagger. The way he found his flow over that beat is what sold the record. So that's just an example so when you find your flow you know try to a few different ones. Try a few different ones. Try to capture them just your flow. We will get to the words in just a minute. But you know just your rhyme words. You want to be able to find a steady flow. Try not to use to use the same flow in the first, second and third verse. Maybe the first and third verse or the first and second and flipping them on the third one. You don't want your record to sound repetitive. You want your record, you know it's got to stay fresh new. It's got to be quick and fast, hitting. You know it's got to be something that's always changing. The swaggers got to change. You want your producer to drop parts of the beat in and out. You know this way you really feel what you?re doing.
