How to Rap
1

Establishes a rhythm. Whether it’s a digital drum loop or a drum machine, you’ll need a rhythm to rap. Play around with the punches to get to something interesting and energetic enough to be repeated over and over as a background.
2

Create a bass line. The bass line can be spare and supplemental or melodic and exhaust. Use of a synth bass or bass tone.
3

Think of a catchy rhythm. This will be the catchy, melodic part of the song, which is often used as a chorus. Ask a friend to sing a couple lines that relate to the main theme of the rap, or do it yourself if you have the voice for it.
4

Write the letter of the song. Start with a freestyle over the backing track. Play with some words that rhyme, and just look what comes out. Once you begin to move in a rhyme scheme begins to focus the content of the letters and write good lines.
5

Structure the song. Most songs have two or three verses interspersed with choruses. Including a breakdown in the middle to add depth to the structure. Distribution is often a moderate departure from the repetitive structure from the verse and chorus, keeping rhythm or bass line while changing the flow of letters.
6

Put it all together. Once you have the lyrics to fit the structure, put everything together and have a rap song.
