If you are a freestyle rapper, you are going to use the right side of your brain to create your freestyle raps. So let's give some tips to the right side of the brain that will give that creativity a jolt. Tip #1 - Take Some Time To Prepare A Creative Workspace What do I mean here? Take the time to create a workspace that will energize the right side of your brain. I think of my workspace as being like a garden. When you are planting a garden, there is a lot of preliminary work to do. You don't just thrown the seeds into a hole, cover it the hole and wait for seeds to grow. The first thing that you have to do is to get the soil ready. You will turn the soil and get rid of any old weeds and plants. You then will fertilize the soil and then water it. Once that is complete, then you will dig the holes and put the seeds or plants in the hole. The same is true of your workspace. Think of the garden as the right side of your brain. First you have to cultivate it. You will create a workspace that you can work in. For me, I will have it as comfortable as possible. I will make sure that I have music to listen to. I will probably have something that is very comfortable for me to sit in. At any rate this is the beginning of your creative process. Tip #2 - Go To Your Workspace and Study The question you are probably asking is what am I supposed to study? You want to study anything you can get your hands on that is related to song writing. You want to study your favorite songs. I like to suggest that you should also study songs that you really don't like. Determine what it is that you don't like about the songs. Is it the lyrics? Is it the rhythm? These may be some things that you want to think about when writing your songs or raps. Look at your favorite songwriters. Study the themes, metaphors, rhyming schemes and any other parts of a lyric. Look for ideas, stories that are being told and what they are trying to tell the listener. So set aside some time on a daily basis to do some studying. Tip #3 - Start Writing Now you can study to your hearts content, and it is a necessary step to take. You still want to make sure that you don't just study. You must make sure that you get busy and start doing some writing. Even if you can't think of anything to write, you still want to write. If you are at a dead end, just write words down. You will be surprised at how your thoughts will start to flow. Tip #4 - Write Your Own Lyrics

Take a tune that you know and love and write your own lyrics. Take a tune that is sad and rewrite the tune so that it is a cheerful or happy tune. Take a happy tune and make it a sad song. These are some ideas that will get your get those creative juices as well as the right side of your brain working. Tip #5 - Let Someone Else Critique Your Work Get someone else to look at your work. Ask them to give you some constructive criticism. Make sure that you listen to the criticism with an open mind. Do not take any of the criticism personally. The task that you have taken, that is to write your own lyrics is not always the easiest thing to do. You may have times that nothing seems to sound right or you just can't seem to get it. At other times, you will find that the lyrics are really flowing. Either way, take the time to commit yourself to the task at end. With that commitment will come the success that you are striving for. Click here to get free tips on how to freestyle rap better, faster, and longer: http://www.FreestyleMethod.com
