[@mccn7804]

This dude, mad good advice. thanks for helping people man. hella respect.

[@hatchicist]

MCCN much agreed bro

[@remotegod255]

After experiencing near-total writer's block for a DECADE, I've finally snapped out of it and written 9 songs in the last 30 days. My plan is to keep writing, and writing, and writing. By committing EVERY MORNING before work to lyrics exercises and EVERY NIGHT to songwriting and recording after work, I've been writing almost 2 songs per week. When I hit 50 songs written and rough-draft recorded, I'm going to select the top 10 that have the most potential (following the 80/20 rule). Then I'm going to rewrite, rewrite, rewrite until those 10 are as polished as I can get them. Then gonna record and produce the final 10 tracks. Only then will I even THINK about starting to significantly promote my music. I only want people hearing my BEST WORK. Along the way I can already feel myself rapidly getting better. I understand more about the songwriting process than ever before, and I'm discovering my creative voice. NOTHING could feel better to me than that. I've dreamed about this for years and I'm finally taking action in my little home studio. Biggest trick is - DO NOT THINK TOO FAR AHEAD. Follow the daily routine. Finish one song at a time. Try to make it as strong as possible. Then move on. Do NOT think too far ahead. Focus one song until it's finished. Come back and rewrite later, when you've learned more and the song's flaws are more clear to you. This is working for me. I am so excited to share these tracks with YOU when they're ready.

[@geovannytorres7550]

Remote God how do you rewrite it doesn't make you frustrated?

[@texmontana420]

Do you have social media??? I wanna hear your progress!!! :)

[@threepointshooter7454]

Write 9 songs everyday to catch up for lost time

[@officialjerel]

This video is my sermon for the year. Laziness and procrastination won’t get you anywhere. Do the work!

[@flixnchills]

Been binge watching your videos. I work as a marketing coordinator and I've just sat here realizing I could be using those talents towards marketing myself. You're a huge inspiration. Just wanted to say thanks!

[@akngnate8633]

I just started making music and I just saw your channel. You’ve helped me a lot. I really appreciate it 👌

[@akngnate8633]

Isid square Ight

[@sav4142]

Lol when you make your own beats, write your songs, record and mix and master, and then market your own shit so it takes longer than a week :p

[@Mikesenze]

Bro i feel you

[@milosvilic1396]

Dude if i am making a song and i wanna make it fire, sometimes i will take months

[@krayztech]

I have this same problem.. I have just started producing.. l just bought a keyboard and a guitar.. I don't play piano or guitar.. yet.. but I've been writing since I was 13 with a couple year-long breaks.. now I have alot of ideas and so much to put into motion. I can only focus on one thing at a time so it all comes down to time management.. doing all this on top of being a dad is not a cup of tea but it's possible

[@THEFUTURESOUNDBEAT]

true man its not easy

[@362mediagroup7]

bruh u aint never lied

[@heyimdrod]

This is a great video. Appreciate the message. Getting over that hurdle is hard, will definitely try the 5 minute thing

[@Cihtym]

Also I was doing a song a week and I noticed a big change in my sound and my lyrics I could see me getting better I'm working on a mixtape at the moment but I still put out a song not every week but I put something out and I still do gaming but I put way more towards music it's worth putting extra time to it

[@luisandres7890]

One song at a time!! I needed this video right now, thank you very much Rob, I really appreciate it! Have a great week :D

[@r-techzgaming3914]

Very valid points Rob. It always seems like hard work to actually begin writing BUT once I start I'm away writing for ages!

[@SmartRapperTV]

It all comes together if you keep writing though! :D

[@shellzest2568]

Brilliant video. I have no problem with writing lyrics & singing &/or rapping them, its the combining them with music that I stress about even though I've learnt a lot about music production. But I need to get over that hurdle & keep learning & practising. Definitely gonna dedicate 3 hrs a day to producing music & turning all my lyrics into actual songs. Love your videos. If or should I when I win a reward for my music & holding my trophy & doing my speech & thanking fans, etc, I will definitely mention your name.

[@hrithiksharma692]

I think the universe got me here at the right time. Really needed this. Thanks a lot my friend.

[@matthewvictorywarren]

Great advice. Thanks a ton!

[@SandzDamirMusicOfficial]

Thank you Rob, just seeing this in 2023, great advice !

[@SmartRapperTV]

No problem!

[@2A.MDREAMING]

Crazy thing i am literally going thru this right now.. lol i look up i see a notification.. #SALUTE to you

[@SmartRapperTV]

Happy I can help bro

[@bigvon]

I've been waiting for this all day man👍. This right here helped me so much. You don't understand 😳. It's 12:00 in the morning here in Florida and I'm bout to hop on a song that I "thought" I was done with. Thanks for this video.

[@thinkupbeats]

My dude, you uploaded this at the most perfect time. I always start a song (producing not rapping) and then I get halfway through, get another idea for a completely different song. Its a never ending cycle! I have about 30 half beats right now waiting to be finished.

[@maxdanger17]

started writing a chorus today, got stalled out. i needed this, thanks Rob! :D

[@bvri9956]

I love you. What a smart and accomplished guy right here

[@bvri9956]

Isid square find a better way to approach people

[@natkutje182]

I love the urgency of your tone of voice. I’m a new dad trying to take care of my family but im triggered to keep at my art. thanks for that

[@FromTheGarden713]

THANKS ROB YOU ALWAYS BRINGIN THE ENERGY IN THESE VIDEOS

[@theroyalfamily_ofrkment8642]

Thank you for sharing this is so me at times...keep winning

[@DanaRaquel]

I think you should show the raw process you go through to finish-I usually get a chorus or a verse done easy. Then can’t transition to the chorus, or get a verse behind a chorus....

[@No2Blame]

Man you got this right... After 15 years of creating music it is still there (hard part), it just get easier because i know how it all works, so i know how to overcome this.

[@sashaman1234]

Bro you are speaking straight to my heart. Real talk though, lot of love and wisdom in this video.

[@lishan222]

Coming through with the incredible advice as always🔥

[@JaiCapone]

I am actually doing this right now! It's really good advice.

[@RoisinMcAuliffe]

This is my favorite video on KZbin right now hahaha kicks my ass into working on music every time I watch it. Thanks Rob!

[@JasonFerguson1283]

You are my new coach! This was the most pumped up and positive talk I’ve heard in a while and I needed to hear it!

[@rezaaminsalehi3641]

I needed this motivation !! Thank you man 😊

[@SmartRapperTV]

No problem!!

[@austin549]

I have been learning the rewrite and re-work involved. I think it is probably one of the hardest obstacles to overcome. And has a big learning curve. And it really comes down to time and discipline, but crossing this barrier will lead you into that limitless area. I can feel it.

[@dq890]

My issue is when working on a project, I tend to come up with melodies or chord progressions that inspire another song. I open a new project to note it down and somehow get sidetracked with a new creative process. Hence songs never really get finished.

[@ezmix3288]

i love you man. now this is what i call a good advice

[@Somanybeats]

These videos are great for real. High energy and life changing facts! Thanks keep em coming!

[@DreyViloria]

[@galleryboy4a]

Thank you SO SO MUCH I swear you actually grabbed my head and yanked it back on track. I'm just swerving between songs every time that's why my songs aren't as good as they normally are for me. I'm gonna focus on one song a week now thank you bro 🙏🙏

[@dracogabe873]

You're doing good things Rob, can't express how grateful i am💯

[@notoriousgoblin2473]

This shit really was helpful i been stuck trying to get the perfect take for my next song but i just gotta stop over thinking this and get it done

[@Dhruvbala]

This is actually really good advice, pretty much for everything. The 5 minute rule is dope

[@ananiasbullock8293]

Your videos are so helpful man I actually believe i can do this.

[@TallRonTV]

“STOP PLAYING VIDEO VIDEO GAMES!!!!” LMAOOO

[@YungMarty]

What do you think is the best way to start releasing Release a mixtape right off the bat Or start releasing singles only

[@ryantheradical]

That's a good question I've wanted answered for months lmao.. I think singles until your production value increases to do projects and you've gained a solid fanbase that would hear a project from you.

[@spicytruth8721]

You got me pumped! Thank you

[@xcoleman9]

iight man, I'm definitely GANG now. Watched a few of these and can't get enough! 🙌

[@onlywhenyoucry]

[@innate5669]

THANK YOU! I needed this rn

[@a_lyve]

LOL...U just got me PUMPED bro....When u starting to sign artists again!!???

[@DavidStarrUSA]

A song is never fully finished. Every artist can pick out there best song and point to something only they notice that they wish they could fix/change.

[@kobefmb]

definitely needed this ✊🏽

[@fondusportfolio]

Thank you Rob for your hard work on this channel 🙏🏿

[@derickburroughs9597]

[@pb9410]

Super Duper Madness The Best Advice Everrrrr!! Thanks a lot man. Cheers!

[@vektheartist]

I NEEDED THIS OH MY GOD!! Where was this video years ago with all my unfinished joints and lyrics on my other computer...xD

[@KaiValentino-r5w]

True Inspiration !

[@izkray]

You just made my day bro! I've been working and just finished up a semester of college, I told myself I was gonna relax and playing some video games today! Nope, guess I'm finishing a song instead 💪

[@yungmic4293]

Which is the best way to make a diss track? With or without a chorus

[@Wimsify]

Yes sir. You have to drill down to the potentials. One could be a smash

[@mothnode]

Last year in June 2018 (haha) I set myself a challenge to pick up rapping from scratch when one of my friends encouraged me heavily when I showed her some initial crappy protos and the ideas. Had to forge my anger and frustration into something creative otherwise I would go mental. I set myself to make 100 song prototypes in a year, which I did and even went over the goal. Mind you these were not mastered songs but rather "sound sketches", a way for me to figure out the style (the idea for the themes and the visual side was already figured out as I'm also a videographer and marketer making brands for a living) so that I can consciously improve where I'm lacking. Along the way ideas for Singles and EPs came as well and right now I'm making a database of all the songs showing potential in order to divide into "segments" by theme or tone (I rap multilingually - English, Polish, Spanish - so what I have in a way is access to 3 different demographics). Keep your fingers crossed bros, love you all! Also thanks for the video, made me think a bit deeper into my creation processes, best of thoughts to everyone else trying to figure out their creations! :)

[@isaacgwams8080]

Man You got me, thank you so much

[@charliegilbert7620]

Definitely helpful thanks bro

[@thatphilosophicalguy8275]

beautiful advice bro, x

[@bigress4300]

Also my time to record is limited as hell because I go to college and I have homework and then I have dinner then I wait for an hour so that my dinner can digest all the way and then I start recording and usually I record around 9 and I get exhausted at like 10 or 11

[@zaynem5490]

Bro I really like like your 5 min trick, thanks for your tips. I'll see u at the top 🙏

[@jefreyjuarez9932]

You inspire me bro! Thank you

[@LosPhoenix]

Wow! You are a legend! Thank you

[@RealBabydaiz]

true🔥❤ leader of the way!

[@deeofficial1677]

Straight facts!!

[@Dhruvbala]

Great video! I do disagree about thug though. His flows aren't always perfect but he has this energy that many other artists, even Kanye sometimes, doesn't. His voice is more like an instrument than a voice tbh

[@macsauce2714]

Good shit bro

[@blaxtaboy7793]

mad energy, very motivating, thanx

[@shakhsaid01]

04.06.18 the greatest feeling right after finishing a song make it really simple, no need to over think it dopest in this, cold as the polar winter no redemption, goin off Hova apprentice poet sniffin coke, thats dop-a-lyrics oh man, written like Roman scriptures waiting on that Drake riposte again its so crazy

[@Ayechevv]

Melodies and rhythm tryna finish es rhymes!

[@coffeeguy7779]

That stop playing video games hit home for me 😂

[@isaiahraybreeden4228]

Awesome info. Can you do a video on making bass so you can feel it, like subwoofer shaking bass?

[@kmrnigga1053]

Really true 💯 all facts

[@musictrends6048]

And im sitting here taking a month to finish 1 song while I know people punching in a whole entire 5 songs a day that are absolutely phenomenal.

[@OfficialXel]

My rap name is X-el pronounced like "Excel" so the beginning of this video alone boosted my confidence. 🙏

[@ChristoRecords]

Looking forward to listening more new songs like ''Way Up'' or even better ones from you

[@SmartRapperTV]

Thanks man. A lot more aggression in my newer ones. Kind of an outlet but I'm very excited to drop them!

[@jahsehrocky3937]

Your advice help me a lot even the song in the end of video it lit ❤️❤️❤️😂
