How to develop lyrics
Whether you’re an advanced artist or just starting out, all a rapper and singer needs… LYRICS! If you are a more advanced artist, this will definitely get you to the top. But if you’re a beginner, this guide will take you to the next level in almost NO TIME! You are free to choose which methods you want to try, but follow this guide FULLY to get the ABSOLUTELY BEST results!
Step 1. Read every day.
Reading is the NUMBER ONE way to write better. Not only will you improve your rapping skills, but reading will also increase your vocabulary. As your vocabulary expands, YOU, as a rapper, singer or songwriter, can express yourself more freely, fluently and accurately. Most people, even in life, only use a certain number of words per day. Imagine learning 20 or more new words and being able to use them correctly in a sentence… The next time you go to the studio to record one of your songs, you’ll sound like a much more advanced artist! This is the first and most important step to get better lyrics. However, grab a few books, a few magazines, various web articles like this one that interests you and READ EVERY DAY!
Step 2. Write a diary.
Just as reading is important for getting better texts, writing is an important part of your journey. Write EVERY DAY if you want to be the BEST rapper or singer, whether it’s a whole song, a verse or a few jokes! Even if it doesn’t look like you’re getting better. The more you work on your writing, the tighter your rhymes will become. Plug in your favorite instruments, give them a touch, and write whatever comes to mind. Whatever you write, make sure you do it as much as possible. It is also good to write about different topics. Challenge yourself, step out of your comfort zone and try different writing styles from time to time. Remember… Every time you write, you improve the quality of your texts… WRITE EVERY DAY!
Step 3. Freestyle.
Even if you don’t know, freestyle can help you get better lyrics. Freestyle is an art that requires you to think on your feet and be fluid and constantly creative. It doesn’t matter if you are a beginner or an expert… Everyone should try freestyle. You will be surprised what you will find along the way! If you’re a beginner, don’t worry if it sounds so good at first, you’ll get better. Just practice with the ultimate goal of being the best you can be at your craft. Some of the best rappers can freestyle. It also makes singing a lot easier. With regular practice, you’ll find your skills become razor sharp!
Step 4. Listen to other artists with lyrics.
In addition to the tips above, one of the most important things to do is to listen to artists with beautiful lyrics. As the old saying goes, “You are what you eat”, I think “You are what you listen to”. When you start writing, you usually look like the artists you listen to the most other artists with impeccable lyrics on a regular basis will inspire you and make you work harder to improve your lyrics.
Step 5. Get Better Hits!
Finally, you need HOT BEATS! Ideas can come from anywhere, but often our main source of inspiration is a great tool. How can you make an epic song or the next burst of clubbing if the beats don’t keep you motivated with your rhymes? You cannot! You can, but you’ll be much better off vibrating to the rhythm of what you’re feeling, rather than a bad excuse for a rhythm. You may not be able to escape the madness if you’re participating in someone else’s song… But make sure you have as tight a production as possible in your own projects. It will inspire you to take your “A” game with you every time and help you get better letters again!
