Go sit on the toilet and you'll make a hip hop classic.

hmm....me it depends on the beat. I'll most likely get the feeling of the beat. then think of something creative to pull off.

I get my best ideas, and I jus write..my biology folder is full of lyrics...at home when I sit down and write to a beat...I normally dont get much done...so I record it to my tape player take it to school and write to the beat...at home I actually get ideas in the shower too lol..but i dont write em down...I get alot of ideas watchin my family coordinate..my house is rlly loud..theres 16 people here livin...And my last and most way I write is listenin to artists like 2pac , triple n , 20 grand and my boi tha q ...But mainly its Triple..because it was youre music tht inspired me to start so I jus get infatuated with all ure subliminals..so I try incorparate it...Listenin to tracks like:

Ayo Its Triple
Step Up
Somebody Tell Me

Dyin in youre arms
Broken
Fireman

Dark Feelings
Hooked On Sweet 16
Ghetto Ill

By Triple N, 20 Grand and Tha Q inspire me..because more or less theyre kinda like me..underground artists..and to see what they can do inspires me to do the same..


yeah i feel you on that.. when i heard Q's and alot of trips stuff.. i get inspired to like write even more and gets me to actually write better.. but damn after reading this.. i realized.. i did better lyrically before because i use to write to songs without the beat than I added the lyrics to the beat.. because you can get better lines out that way.. but now i just write while listening to the beat which i believe i should stop doing *sighs*

i write then add it to the beat..if it dont fit i subract words and revise it..maily i hear the beat and then freestlye to it then i catch the hot bas and write them down..but i gotta memorize all my lyrics and then spit them to a beat cuz man when i read it of the page i fuck up lol i got sloppy handwriting

anyway, I write about shit I do and see in the hood. I fight alot, see niggas fightin alot. I get money alot, see niggas gettin money alot. So thats what I rap about. I sell weed, but I dont rap about it, I mention it in 1 song, but otherwise that, nope, I dont talk about that.
I rap about bitches sometimes, all depends if Im in some pussy that I really REALLY like.
so, thats what I rap about.

Me.....I come up wit lyrics inconsistently.....I'll be watching TV then next thing I know I got a notebook in my hand I dun wrote 3 verses in 5 mins.....then other times I hear a beat an come up wit a hook on the spot then spend the next month tyring to write 3 verses to match it....My influences is....life....watching life is when I write best......like when I ride the city bus ...I always take a note book cuz I can look out the window and watch the passing buildings, people, an cars,...an see the artistry of it...I wrote sum of my deepest shit riding the bus, or riding the subway, anyone from nyc knows theres always that bum nigga playin drums on 2 buckets, or a bumass white dude wit sum broke ass guitar, people constantly moving, the smell of the air down there, laughing at people running for train then u hear that "ding" an the door closes 2 inches from they noses jus before they hop on, watching the station disappear then goin into the darkness of the subway tunnel...or the rain...something about gloomy, cloudy, rainy days makes me write deep thought provoking shit.....boredom...in class, a seminar, church, a wack date, lost a madden game at my niggas house & waiting for my turn....I jus pullout the notebook an start writing rhymes....those are punchline spots for me...when I'm bored I write punchlines....the porch....cyphering wit my niggas....I always spit a couple lines in freestyle mode that I gotta write down soon as I finish my spit, or the shower...I take the notebook wit me when i wash my ass...I hop in & out of the shower cuz I use to forget sum ill shit dat I'd think of while washing my ass, the luandry mat, or the emcee classic method sum trees, preferrably dat black..an a nigga's creativity sky rockets.....but I can never schedule writing...I can never do focused writing always spur of the moment..probably my creative weakness...if I set a time when I will write...say I say I'm a write from 4 to 5 o'clock....I'll either have a blank page or sum weak shit.


Gunz & Bulletz & Drive-Bys...and hood life...GANGSTUH :thumbup:

WhoAmI 11-05-05 06:28 AM

it depends.........

sometimes i can be listening to a track that just gets me fired up and makes me wanna write

my rhymes are more poetic when i write without a beat but a lot of people are too dumb to understand shit that deep so from a business perspective i guess i really should dumb down my shit sometimes, but on the other hand that would take away my individuality so i don't.

and yeh sometimes i subtract words but sometimes its possible to vary the flow in such a way that you can keep the words and retain the intended effect of having them...
