What up, Smart Rapper! I’m Rob Level, and today we’re going over 11 songwriting secrets for rappers. These are ideas to get you up and working on music every day.
Writer’s block is a real thing, and unless you have some good tools for writing music, you might get caught up and get in your head so much you can’t make music.
It happens to the best of us, but the more music you’re making, the better you’re getting, the more attention you’re getting, more success etc, so definitely pay attention.
Alright, let’s get into it.
[Intro]
1) Don’t Rely only On Memory
Write things down. Or better yet - do voice memos. Sometimes when you’re really in the zone, you reach all kinds of cool combinations and melody or lyric ideas that are GONE unless you record them somehow.
Use the notepad in your phone’s free apps as well to make sure you remember good lyrics that pop into your head. You’ll be teaching your brain to value doing this.
Don’t rely on your memory to remember it ! You won’t, or you’ll remember a limited, simplified version of the original later, and that really cool line, pattern, or melody combination you created is gone.
If you have a cool idea in your head throughout the day or at work, duck into the bathroom and record it on your voice memos real quick. You’ll thank yourself later when you go back and see all the cool lines and work you’ve done, and it will be easier to put songs together.
2) Write How You Talk/Rap
A lot of rappers’ flow doesn’t sound natural because they aren’t actually rapping how they speak; they are rapping how they were taught to write in English class at school.
That’s why you hear those awkward lines where people are trying to cram a bunch of words in that don’t fit, or are overly concerned with being grammatically correct.
Try to attack it more from the angle of the way you talk - not how you write. Use phrases you use in daily life. You’ll automatically be more confident and comfortable and just build better, more natural lyrics from there.
3) Memorize Your Lyrics
As you’re writing your song and working on each verse and the hook, memorize your lyrics as you go. That way, by the time you’re recording, you’ll be extremely confident and literally “know your stuff.”

YOUR THE GOAT
This tips you’re saying have been heard by millions, but only the most determined people will actually listen
It's all about the information being delivered in a way that people can understand it. It also needs to be explained by someone they care enough to listen to. That's why this video is so powerful! Thank you for watching my friend!
100%
That’s lowkey a bar 🔥
I will listen
@@SmartRapperTV as tha school of what we want to made good rapper if we want to move on.
"record your voice and use the right beats". Blueface " yeah ight"
Aydyn Strong yah Ight 😂😂
What does this even mean
@@astro.mp3348 it's means, blue face picks the best beats but sometimes doesn't do the best on them libtard
the right beat with the right keys actually keyed in. Am etc

Take notes from this dude... This some real knowledge💯🗣 If you don’t sound confident on the mic your audience won’t take you serious because you didn’t take YOURSELF serious to begin with

I basically owe my whole rap career to rob i swear

Lmao thas dope tho
NeWArrA WHAT CAREER
I'm bout to end this man's whole career
😁
Without u i would've quit rap along time ago but u gave me the tools, determination and confidence to keep going
Thanks
TAKE NOTES PEOPLE
My homies trip out cuz I write symbols and stuff in my rhymes but I use em to remember the delivery of how it should hit on the beat. I always finish my verses n hooks the quickest. I also group my bars into twos. It helps me to progress the story from beginning to end n make it fit.
aRtaJay I use symbols too bro we just smart- ~x2
aRtaJay I use symbols too
Lol me 2
My hooks are easy my verse are kind of hard
Bro I thought I was the only one who did this. Definitely the best approach 💯
wait.. im not a rapper why am I here?

Myy nigga a legend
Yoooooooo a legend
Love ur beatz
2 laugh at some bad rappers?
I think of weed when he says "find that something that makes you creative"
Nice video and great tips tho!
Sameee
weed actually can make you less creative if you over use it
@@TheJerseyYT weed gone make u creative and stay fly
When I'm writing I always say the line over and over until I know it sounds good before I even write it down 💯
process
*the day I lost my identity*
I repeat each lyric 13 times just so it becomes muscle memory.
Nice list but here's a tip ... workout, ALOT, lift, it will HELP YOU CREATE, helps your blood flow and neurotransmitters do what they do. WORK OUT if you're a writer. I literally never stop having new ideas. I work out 4-5 times a week. Dopemine and Ginkgo Biloba help ur those processing as well. Those are my cheat codes.
🙏
I always have better ideas when I'm excited and hyper. I should work out though cuase I'm usually tired.
I tend to get all my juice when I’m faded or late night when I’m more relaxed and sometimes anti social lol
fax yo i started writing raps like a week ago and i find it easy to think off stuff to write, i lift about 3-4 times a week, especially in quarantine
@@boogiewithnotahoodie8917 yesssir!!
I really want to start rapping my friends say I have potential so this is useful
Do it.
Always follow your dreams!
*So I’ve been a pro all this time and didn’t know it haha*
Jaisean I feel you

I havnt watched your videos in like a whole year...Been grinding 💪 and see you're still doing so too 💯
This is all so true, the confidence thing when you record to, I didn’t realize it but it would happen subconsciously with some of my best songs I got real hyped while recording and sounded different in them
i learned alot what you talked about but i need to find that creative pocket and what make me feel like this.thanks Rob.
Literally was just having writers block thank you for this lol

Everytime i watch one of your videos i immediately get the urge to write or record something. Your tips have made me so much better and confident, I cant thank you enough
@ RobLevel Your Drive and Compassion for this Music and helpin others is Essentially Honoured! "Smart Rapper" is hands down The Bible of Music! -Salute-
Thanks man!
glad to see the videos back and consistent, always boost my inspiration!
That's what I'm here for!
Yo Rob thank you so much for this bro! Been watching EVERY video of yours! You da best bro!
Crazy how helpful this is brother. Definitely underrated channel.
Damn bro 48 in a month? You gonna steal all the bars before we can get em😂
Thank you Rob for your wisdom. I've been getting better everyday and your new single is fire bro! Bless you!!! 🔥🔥🔥
Bro your video is soo helpful but I'm already doing this 🔥🔥
Thank u for the tips bro! Its reassuring to hear Ive already been doing some of the things u suggested.
I was trying to write and this popped up ! ✊🏾✊🏾
MiGHTY YO every time
i was in the middle of looking for a beat 😂
Krow same 😂
UA-cam algorithms are insane
you're right about recording what you write. you'll forget and lose it forever if you don't record. flow like you talk? hmmm it depends what style of flow you're tryin to make. i try to flow in the old 90s hiphouse rap flow mixed with other rappers. you're also right about imagining your voice as a percussion instrument- not only must it go on beat but it must fit the rhythm's composition - not just flow anywhere. and yes accounting the breathing when you write is important. but i've also learned that if you can hear it in your mind - you can perform it with your mouth it just takes a lot trial and errors and little by little knowing where to breathe in and out goes as your perform it over and over. i bought my rhyming dictionary when i was 18 and yes it is a very useful tool that i still use but i find them lacking in the way they structured the book. for example hat and cat rhyme in the book but pack and rat are in different sections of the book so i made my own rhyming dictionary 10 years ago. damn you wrote 48 songs in one month with only 6 hours a day?? i wish i could make that much in a month. my problem is i rarely like what i make so i lag when i've made so much and feel like either i want to erase a lot or start over on a new song and in between it's a lot of harsh self criticism which also slows me down. I have a question for you smart rapper-- if you were to write a specific rhythm first, for the flow of your rap, and after filled it in with words, don't you think it would be very difficult to throw in punchlines as well and make the punch come out at the right time in the rhythm. i rarely get lucky like that. if you can do this please make a video showing how you do this. My main thing is flowing with complex music composition and i haven't been able to throw the punchlines that much because i write over rhythm that i hear in my head first as i hear the music. i really appreciate your insight.
Definitely have a lot of good points bro .. keep the videos coming
So as a aspiring rapper, I appreciate not only this video, but I LOVE the DBZA subtle reference.

Super dope fam! Greatly appreciate it all the jewels!! Keep at it!!!
Great vid 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
6:02 that point reminds me of J.I.D. Dude can flow smoother than a drum if he wants to
DYLAN yea fried rice is a good example
J.I.D is just a kendrick lamar clone
Minoxidil Beard he really not tho
@@user-rf3vy6sx7l *insert everyone is someone else clone here*
@@user-rf3vy6sx7l no just very no
This is the real rap advisor when you know the way he delivers his words
I give it up to him, he made a great catalog off the most common sense information...
This is for someone who just decided to make music but has never made it before
Good technique when you run into writer's block is to try what I call a rhyme tree... Say you got a dope bar and you get stuck with connecting the next following bar, just go head and take the main end rhyming word or phrase in your scheme. Forget focusing on the actual full bar at this point. Just focus on the syllables and sound of your rhyme and make a "tree" branching off Into as many rhymes as you can come up with that match. Once you got a good amount of unique rhymes you can browse through them and start using the best ones to craft full bars with when possible. Usually just doing this exercise will help jog your creativity and get your ideas flowing again, even if you dont use all or most of the rhymes that you branch off.
Example:
The first bar: Ya better mention me when ya mention the greats/
Benjamin's face
Pendulum sways
Penne on my plate
Better with age
Venomous snakes
Selling em weight
Tell by the taste
Them margielas is fake
Get head on a date
Gelatin shape
Pelican steak
You dont have to do the full multisyllablic rhymes, you can break it into each word of the phrase to rhyme individually then develop the phrases until you're able to easily craft multis. Have fun with it. The rhymes in your tree dont even have to make sense at first, just see how many rhymes and slant rhymes you can come up with. It will greatly improve your writing skills especially if you do it as a regular drill, but it can always be busted out in emergencies when you start getting writers block in the middle of creating a verse.
Reply with some bars y'all can come up with using this method to follow up my example bar. Use the tree I started to help.
STaTiiXMuZiiK Example: Try to Re-Write history but when all the love is gone it’s hard to Re-Vibe chemistry.

TEMPLATE LINK I MENTIONED: www.SmartRapper.com/MMM
Thank you. I appreciate that
Can i have the link to the template mentioned at the beginning?
Charge Anderson yea im lookin for that template too
Will this load into pro tools first? Or need at least pro tools ten
Will it work on Ableton?? I don't use pro tools
Excellent video my g. Liked and subbed 🔥🔥
Thanks for the tips bro! Definitely trying to work on #1. I can get so disorganized.
👊🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
Always knows what to say #smart
Used RhymeZone when I first stared, definitely a great site to use when learning, over time those words just got stuck in my head and they will for you also after enough practice! Nice video.
Also if y'all could take minute and peep my music that'd be dope
Northside Hot Boy "Hell Yuh" all platforms!
I appreciate you rob, thanks for the tips!
You glide for sharing this wisdom. Most keep it to themselves. Thanks man
I already knew bout every tip he gave in this video.....this lets me know that I'm doing something RIGHT
Black Simpson right and still growing
Rob level should write a book on being a rapper! I would be first to pre-order it🔥🔥😍
Great video Rob! Well done!
I’ve used some of these tips recording over the last ten years but hearing them reiterated is encouraging, thanks for this, this video has keys.
#4 is difficult for me bc my voice is low and sounds dumb like frfr so really i just write, mainly as like a therapy u kno?
When the coke hits hard and then wains over 14 mins and 36 seconds 😂 Nah, good advice, man. Helpful. Thanks.
This is like the 5th video form you i have watched. I am subbed and I do not plan to be an artist. This information is amazing for any youtuber. I am working on setting up a fish room and an office and you have greatly influenced the design (for the audio) of both.
This dude is so informative, and he talk so fast, but keeps it simple he packs you full without loosing your interest. Love love love him
I already knew 90% of these things but it’s a huge boost to hear it from somewhere else... great channel bro . Really making a difference out here 👍🏽
:D just a reminder video haha
You should do some melodic rap tips. Not rlly much ppl try to do old school rap lol.
These are for all forms of rap lol
This made me lol lol
Love the analogies and in-depth analysis in these videos brother!
you were the person that helped me with me finding my voice. I didn't see the video but you mentioned in it another video back then... I have to ccheck out that video to see.
yo rob... right now im finding my biggest issue jamming up my creative work flow is beats. i may be being over selective. but at the same time im not trying to just settle for any beat if its not capturing the vibe and sound to match the concept in mind. when searching for beats all i can find are trap beats, which yeah theyre pretty dope but if your trying to tell a story or have some lyrical concept in mind trap beats can be difficult to execute those types of songs properly. so then you start looking for non trap beats and everything sounds like its from 1994. its like theres a huge gap in time missing between like the 90s and now when it comes to finding beats. basically i was just wondering your thoughts on where a good source for instrumentals would be/ your opinion on fixing this problem. it is so inefficient to spend hours on youtube looking for a beat and not only that it kills the inspiration after 2 hours of listening to beats that werent hitting. appreciate your thoughts man thank you
I hear you on that! I honestly don't think there is anything wrong with being over selective. I've spent hours looking for a beat, found the one, and then knocked out a really solid track. Like 2-3 hours sometimes.
I partnered up with a producer who's doing custom beats, if you want to hit me up @keeakev I can link you with him. We just started working together and it might be an option that works for you too
@@Keeakev yea man absolutely I was just thinking that's the route to go I have over 20 concepts down, bars( that I'll obviously have to adjust to the flow once i have the beats), message, weather verses will be 16 or 24s etc. All written and ready to go. Been looking for beats for 3 months throughout the whole process and literally only have 3 that I'm going to definitely use. If you could share the info I would appreciate it. The beats the only thing preventing me completing at this point
@@kevinsal26 Yeah I think that it's necessary at some point to try and tailor your sound with a producer. Do you have an email or something? Don't want to blow up Rob's page with their info
Don't overthink it. Focus on ONE thing at a time. You're siking yourself out my bro
Record vocals with a guitar tuner on the input so u can see what note ur on
Vincent Salamatino why does it matter what not ur on?
@@liljohnny662 are you serious???
@Sheng Fink exactly, shits pretty obvious
Lightning In October uh, when rapping, most times you’re not singing notes, so pitch doesn’t matter. If you’re sing/rapping, maybe. But just rapping, pitch isn’t really relevant.
Thank you very much I needed this.
All tips I picked up over time good video my bruddah u got my lime
4:30 this is 100% true. There is somebody I follow and the bars were on point, but it didn’t sound good.
im actually really happy cuz im a begginer, just released my first song and i already know and use a lot of these tips without any help
We all have to start from somewhere bro..
Dope!
Where’s your song?
@@meemee9302 ua-cam.com/video/mLM1vprtSCM/v-deo.html its on this channel. the music that im workin on right now is a lot better, but i guess this ones not bad for a first song:p also made the beat myself, some tips would be great
keep pushin
Brooo spot on. Especially about recording your melody’s
Great stuff
