2:59 (for the guys who take notes) vocal tone 'cheat code' 1. record a rough draft of a song three different times each time with a different vocal tone 2. make sure each rough draft vocal's tone is very different from the other ones are 3. make each rough draft as a separate file file 4. compare and contrast the vocals
Just try putting notations on your note pad... like / or (a *CA*pital *LE*tter) which is to indicate where you put your leap and stuff.... Just create your own notations and stuff... it'll work out fine trust me And try breaking your lyrics down little by little into the 2kicks and 2snares... whatever(like a bar I mean... ya know)
I wanna quote something KSHMR (EDM Producer for whoever doesn't know him) once said - " We all throw shit at the wall expecting them to stick, difference between us (the pros) and you is that we are experts at shit throwing". Point is, you're gonna fuck up a lot, don't go for the perfect take or the perfect bar, experiment and you'll be surprised what a beast you hide in there. Have fun making music cause that's what it's all about, peace! - JVMI
idk man when i write i already have an idea of what it would sound like in my head and when i try to do it differently it doesnt even sound like it rhymes
I’ve had this issue too. I’ve learned to rap my lyrics out loud as I’m writing and not just in my head. Sometimes when you write words don’t go together. in your head that sound right but once you actually deliver then your tongue can’t move in the way to deliver the line the way you envisioned. I’m getting better but I sound dead on the track no emotion working on that now
I have bars. I know that, my boys are always like god damn. BUT my voice is so like quiet and almost talking like with boring cadence. I’m a producer but wanna rap too.
Can you do a video on how to start recording a song. like should you make the beat first or write the lyrics. I find it really hard to make songs because I don't know how to start
+Jaggy poo I usually find the beat first. I roam youtube looking for a nice beat and when I find one that I like I get to work and start writing the lyrics! Check out some of my songs if you need examples! But keep on watching Drews' videos, they help a lot! soundcloud.com/king_tony-334100710/the-king-king-tony
+EkkoProductions I can actually relate to this haha. I find that when I eat something before I rap I seem to salivate a lot, so I usually try to not have any snacks beforehand. Other than that I just try to not to think of it and just focus on delivering and pronouncing my lyrics! Good luck!
When I rap people say I sound like Eminem or I'm the next Slim Shady and I do take it as a compliment but at the same time, I don't want to sound that way because I want my own unique flow and voice sound. I just naturally sound that way, even when I talk and yes I am white and yes lived in a Trailer park and had a crazy life yada yada... so that's what holds me back is everyone comparing me to Eminem I want to be known as who i am not anyone else. Any advice?
God Himself ya I do and there probably just as good if not better than what you have. I don’t write about sex and being in a gang I write about shit that people can actually relate to.
Drew!!I appreciate your tutorials and I think I have improved in the game of rap......but drew!! U.haven't talked about the ways of writing my own rap song..........pls kindly address this issue ASAP.....
Yooooo drew I'm getting my first mic (it's a usb one ) dont mean to sound snug and overconfident but wrote a remix on WHATS POPPIN and I'm just gettin that inside feeling that this will be my first promo and it WILL Blow up
I rap my friends tell me my lyrics crazy and I freestyle real good but they just say I don't stay on beat and I think that's my problem what can I do ?
Last night i recorded one my songs i wrote and i personally thought i did well but then when i listened it back it sounded like i was whispering but i was standing close to the mic any tips on how i can fix this
When I am free-styling I noticed I end up using the same phrases more than once the phrases I use are " my name is Nick " and " this is how we do it ". And also I can't think of more stuff to freestyle about , I run out of stuff to say really quick and this makes all my freestyles sound the same . Please get back to me Drew man I need help urgently bro
+Ainsley Harriot Freestyle about stuff that is around you. I just uploaded a freestyle video of my own where I kind of did that if you would like an example
There called "time-words", a typical phrase to use while you're thinking of your next verse. I have the same problem, I say, "Yo man..." way too much. My only solution to helping this is to slow down, put small time gaps between your verses. Make sure to take small breath-brakes. I hope this helped! :)
What helped me was to just flow. Keep going dispute how weird or stupid it sounds just keep spittin'. Eventually you'll start to flow naturally and that is when your rhymes will start to come in. For me I started to just rap and my flow was a bit akward but with time it started to become more solid and I was able to think of rhymes and word play while doing it. It also helps to write songs which is totally voluntariy.
How do I explain this? When I hit the Mic 🎤, I feel good. But I recently recorded over Lil Peeps Drive By. It's a heavy beat, but my voice sounded weak.
So say i have a beat i like and i already know what voice to use for it i can just go and record. instead of making three version of it with different voice tone..according to your topic u should now how to deliver,Rap,Flow, to it
Hey Drew, love your vids! Just added you on snap as well. I'm not trying to sound like I'm questioning you but I'm just wondering if you were a professional rapper at some point? Like do you have any tracks I could listen to? Got some other questions if you got the time, thanks. Just added you on snap
It's hard for me to freestyle. I can't freestyle for more than a minute, unless I wrote something first to warm up my mind, I'ma keep doing it though... cuz I feel like once I learn how to freestyle good I can take over shit.
Yo how do i Change what I rap about I seem to rap about the same thing or Say the same words. How Do I learn how to use different words and make them sound good??
Funny how you imitated that Pac voice, oh and it's 2018, every rapper nowadays uses autotune, won't mind if I use a little bit of it, dont worry, lyrics will shock you...

I’ve recorded some of my best stuff on accident
Lol relatable 😂
Wooooord bro😹
Same. Shoutsout freestyling lol thats how i got the idea for a song im tryna record soon!
So true 😂
Same here XD
this is definetly something I think about when writing to a track.. I catch myself trying to synchronize my tone of voice to the beats I choose
When I freestyle I do fine but when I'm working on a song that is written I also trip over my words what can I do to fix it?
ZacRiffle Vlogs just keep practicing it until the bars are second nature and you’ll be just fine
Forreal!
edit the lyrics
Memorize it
Just try putting notations on your note pad... like / or (a *CA*pital *LE*tter) which is to indicate where you put your leap and stuff....
Just create your own notations and stuff... it'll work out fine trust me
And try breaking your lyrics down little by little into the 2kicks and 2snares... whatever(like a bar I mean... ya know)

Can you make some more delivery tip videos please mane? Appreciate your work homie it helps alot.💯
Yo. I have trouble with saliva in my mouth when I'm rapping. When I'm freestyling it's fine, but when doing a final product, I tend to salivate a lot.
+EkkoProductions I can actually relate to this haha. I find that when I eat something before I rap I seem to salivate a lot, so I usually try to not have any snacks beforehand. Other than that I just try to not to think of it and just focus on delivering and pronouncing my lyrics! Good luck!
drink more water. and when you speak make sure your throat is open and try not to talk with your tongue
Thanks

@@HowToRapOfficial hey I want ask I rap as a hobby just make my songs and send them to my friends is okay
But if i only got one tone voice style.. I gotta pick the right beats ?

Cut out some words
ayodeji abdulkhaliq look on how to count bars
Don't go as fast as possible, take small breaks between lines to think and breath, and let the beat run once in a while don't overthink it.
thank you for this tutorial. Ihave found my voice with this.
It really works man..thank a lot
love your videos
Last night i recorded one my songs i wrote and i personally thought i did well but then when i listened it back it sounded like i was whispering but i was standing close to the mic any tips on how i can fix this

I have music I’m recording off my iPad and I think I’m getting better can I email you to take a listen I need expertise criticism
@@chadr7310 sure can u do the same for me
thnks for ur video, it helped me a lot
Does your rap tone have to really be the same for every song? I assume its okay for you switch up flows and tones..right?
Hey drew what are good ways to warm up my voice before I start recording?
THANKS Broh
Delivery is one thing i just WANT to overcome im just confused like what it is and how.
3 full tracks of different tones for 1 song? Thats a lot of files when you're working on a project. Are there any simpler ways?
When I am free-styling I noticed I end up using the same phrases more than once the phrases I use are " my name is Nick " and " this is how we do it ". And also I can't think of more stuff to freestyle about , I run out of stuff to say really quick and this makes all my freestyles sound the same .
