Learn how to use metaphors correctly. Your rhymes will not only be funnier and smarter, theyll sound better too.

As Wordsworth told me recently, I just try to think of whats important to the people in my surroundings and try to speak on it. Rap in ciphersgroups of two or more rappers playing off each other, trading verses. This is a great way to improve, and its definitely fun. One of your friends can beat box, you can throw a beat on the stereo, you can search on youtube for the instrumental version of your favorite song, or just freestyle over nothing. Take turns, cutting in whenever you want or when someone passes you the mic. You probably wont have an actual mic. Never drop the invisible mic! Pick it up and pass it! Work off other peoples rhymes. If they throw in something about the Bible, pick up that theme and run with it. Try to stick to similar topics, or riff off topics in creative ways. Expand on or reference their lines. When my friends and I cipher, we like to kick about random stuff that we all know about, like our personal lives. Got no girlfriend, and girls are good for your health, Know what I mean? Uh, at least I work for myself, You see me here, kid, and I rhyme crazy, Used to have a job reading to a rich blind lady, You rhyme crazy, and sometimes you rhyme lazy, But I love this rap game, cause rhyming is my baby, Visually, lyrically Im known as a mystery, Yall couldnt even see me on HDTV, Its always good to pick up the rhyme scheme of the person right before you. In a great freestyle between Brooklyn rappers Mos Def and Talib Kweli back when they were together as Blackstar, Mos Def ends his first verse asking Kweli if hes with it.

These are the best freestyles: raps that connect say anything admit it demo the rhyme sounds and topic of the rappers around you.

One of the great things about rapping in ciphers is that after you spit one verse you get a break before you spit again. This break is your best friend. Its during this break that youll be listening and responding to your friends verses. But youll also be planning out your next verse. Whenever Im in a cipher, I never like to get back on the mic until Ive composed four to six quality lines in my head. To be most impressive, these lines will be about things around you, or theyll be about something your friend said in his verse. Lets say your friend is wearing a shirt that has Daffy Duck on it.

Thats not an amazing line, but I guarantee you say anything admit it demo in a cipher people will go nuts over that. Make sure to point at his shirt as you say it. I always try to think of two or three of those rhyming couplets before I spit again. Usually Ill drop one right away and then use the other two later in the verse. Freestyling, like sculpting or shooting three-pointers, takes an insane amount of practice.
