Hey Rob! Didn't know that this was a thing but i actually started doing your first tip a month ago to great success(i've pretty much doubled the number of songs i've written in my whole life). I don't come from a hip hop or rap background but you deliver some quality advice that translates to so many applications. Thanks for looking out!
Thats a big issue ive been doing is just recording things 1 take and not having gone through or re through certain areas, then just attempt to correct issues the way it is, but really, I could have just re punched in and saved a bunch of time and increased quality. Thinking about it, ive noticed that common with beats, not just my own but in abundance, they put things together and just instantly mix it, rather then going through and listening for that perfect sound / feeling / vibe. Self learnings a process, but these are some helpful Awesome tips again, thanks.

Your such a G. I've been a homeless traveling rapper street performer and breakdancer most my life, struggling to put together the creative world the system and my narcisists have been tryna keep from me, and dead ass bro, your vids help me so much. I moved to the bay to learn sound design, cuz I'm a yung mac dre multicultural pure enigmatic energy god that just hasn't made that perfect flicky yet. but it's finna happen, and I'll give you a big hug when I make it to the finish line comrade. then I'm finna shake up the system cuz I'm a revolutionary since day 1 anarchist, and I'm not finna let them do me like that.
For me it helps most to not listen to a beat for to long. If i hear it for too long i lose feeling with the beat and u want to create the feeling that someone has that listens to the song for the first time.
I was actually doing all of those before watching this naturally so im glad :D Im from poland but soon ill drop english ep, hope some people can hear it hah. Cya. Have a good day!
Fax Rob Level bro, if you are an artist: make sure you don't force yourself to write, but make sure you go with the flow and just experiment different freestyles and pick the best one. If you still can't do it, change your mindset and practice freestyling.

true, but sometimes the pre-chorus is so intertwined with the chorus that you didn't even know there was a difference. Think of Drake & Lil Wayne on HYFR, the whole section of "do you love this shit, are you high right now, do you ever get nervous" is the pre-chorus & the "hell yeah, fucking right" part is the actual chorus. so it all depends 🤷♂️ but don't forget to grab your free songwriting cheat sheet before it's gone www.RapperShortcut.com/SongWriting/

I pretty much learned all i know from watching and listening. this my friend is a gem in the dusty coal mine called the internet Thank You bruv, im inspired to do more.... even tho its not as easy as u make it seem. I guess the more i do it the easier it will get tho
I think I write 2-3 songs a day and freestyle pretty much all day. Whether in my head or with friends out loud. Even if u are only writing 4 or 8 bars at a time. Best tip here was to just keep writing. The more u write, the more puzzle pieces u spit onto the page the more u have to work with.
@Smart Rapper I've been watching you for a while now man but I went homeless and lost the ability to watch you're videos. I need someone like you to help me get out the hole I'm in
This is what I did on my song twerk it. Normally when I produce I hear the beat so long I can’t write but. Challenged myself to make a beat in 10 min then turn my tape recorder on and just went and wrote around it.
I have a few tips. You don't always need 3 verses. 2 16 bar verses can be plenty for a 2+ minute song. Also the thing that helps me the most when I would struggle on the second or third verses is I try to think of the second verse as an entire new song. It tends to generate new ideas and you can do this and still follow along with the theme of the song.
it depends on the type of song that you are making, but if you ever run out of ideas after the second verse then you could always get a feature from someone or turn that possible 3 verse into a bridge or an extended pre-chorus that feeds into the chorus. But if you need any more tips, check out the free songwriting cheat sheet 🤘 www.RapperShortcut.com/SongWriting/
I wrote 20 songs and I noticed a pattern: 2 verses, longer verses=no required 3rd verse 2 short verses = 3rd verse. You can also chop and move the verses, one time I had 2 verses in my song, 24 bars each (weird) but I split it up so it was 16 bars each. Easy 3rd verse that I already wrote. If you want instead 72 bars, just brainstorm ideas or come at the 3rd verse from a different angle (harder, faster spoken) sometimes artists nowadays completely change the best and start going in
I gotta say one thing. Quality A1. On everything. It's impressive. Your brand is strong, the video editing is powerful, your audio quality is solid. Your value propositions are genuinely valuable. I wish I had you when I was 16. It would have spared me a ton of headache. Thank you for your commitment to yourself and your people. Also I actually dig many of your songs.

A lot of hits go straight from the verse to the chorus and then another verse. No other bs in between. Shit some hits don’t even have a real chorus
true, but sometimes the pre-chorus is so intertwined with the chorus that you didn't even know there was a difference. Think of Drake & Lil Wayne on HYFR, the whole section of "do you love this shit, are you high right now, do you ever get nervous" is the pre-chorus & the "hell yeah, fucking right" part is the actual chorus.
so it all depends 🤷♂️
