[@NeoTheory]

This is the most "English Class" tutorial for rap I've ever seen, and I love it.

[@Niffian]

I'm a music and theatre major, so, to me, these ideas are easily understood. I think that wordsmithing is one of the most interesting things in art. Shakespeare, musical composers, and lyricists are wonderfully mindful and deliberate.

[@Mat4yo]

As I'm not a theatre or music major, that's a relief! You're definitely right - careful wording tells so much

[@VironikaTugaleva]

"When the drum beats are more impactful, it's incumbent upon you to place your stressed words upon them." 😂 You are a wizard, dude.

[@marjig8779]

I can't believe I'm learning how to rap on beat from a tiny white dude in glasses.

[@imaplant4030]

thats mean. hes very good and helpful

[@reignenpage2281]

I feel awful for lmfao when he said he got asthma the way he did bruh

[@Mat4yo]

Me neither!

[@gamingnightwing676]

Do not disrespect the legend

[@breaks3085]

What is your definition of cadence, isit the person flo over the track or rise & fall in the Vocal tone ??

"your rap is a roller coaster, and you're the architect, make it a good ride"

[@Nikita-ze8ii]

I am getting happier every single day about finding your channel :D First you did Kingdom Hearts Raps, now you are teaching to do them and others :) You are awesome Mat

[@Nikita-ze8ii]

Oh and, btw. which microfone do you use for singing?

[@Mat4yo]

Glad to hear! :D hope you like my album coming soon too! I use the mic you see in this video a Shure SM7B

[@drmiteshtrivedi]

This is the video I was searching for. Thank you

[@the2kteacher]

This week we learned how to rap as a way to learn how to count beats per measure/bars. We used your informative video.👍🏽Thank you.

[@Varialzzz]

Probably everything I needed to know and couldn't find cramped in one video, fooking original raps

[@3Guys1Video]

I almost thought this was an April Fools special until I saw how long the video was

[@Mat4yo]

Understandable!

[@Sk8tAdvnterz]

Thank you for this tutorial. It's helped me. I know that I WILL BE making a living rapping. I've been practicing.

[@Mat4yo]

Sarah Wilson Way to go Sarah! Please look forward to my album on 12/22 for even more inspiration and lessons

[@chrissh.1147]

You are a genius like how you break everything down with educated facts thank you for explaining the mechanics and all the components to make this work no I understand a lot of the tools that I need to use continue my craft!

[@planetcool2240]

This is excellent and can be used in any form of music. Excellent examples. Thanks for doing this.

[@drunkpanda_1]

I love the range of words you have in your vocabulary, do you have any tips on learning new words for rapping?

[@duartecboc8028]

DrunkPanda Games books, vocabulary lists, dictionary, rhyme dictionaries , news,dailylife, go search for subjects . Ex: iluminati, read about that take words you dont know or acts/persons/facts/ etc and then start mixing with other subjects and themes.. hope to be usefull peace/salam from portugal

[@Mat4yo]

Write down every new word you hear!

[@joshuathomson8925]

Nice tutorial, Mat. It really helps a lot. Thanks.

[@Mat4yo]

Awesome!

[@YAOES]

I wish I could watch the whole thing right now... Love the first 10 minutes Matteo! I'm glad I didn't skip this one... I thought I knew a lot about this.

[@Mat4yo]

thanks dude! check out the rest when u can

[@solshadow]

Dude thanks, all this info is gold, i want to make gaming rap battles, but am bad with imitations

[@tjaycartez]

IM GONNA SAY IT! i appreciate you :)

[@YAOES]

Heyyyy. I just saw myself on the bookshelf! Love this video, Matteo. I feel like I need to watch all of this series like 5 more times.

[@Mat4yo]

Thanks for being a chiseler! you earned it! I hope the series helps! thanks!

[@MilesQuickster]

Oh Lord! Iambic pentameter & tetrameter! Back to English Literature exams

[@josebermea3843]

[@BattlestarGaraptica]

Happy Birthday, Mat4yo!!!

[@bokoster6907]

1 tip for everyone, watch the element you want to be better at asap first, improve yourself and when you're satisfied find the next thing you'd like to improve and watch another part of this vid

[@TheDevilOfJesters]

Great Video thank you for making it I've been meaning to get back into creative writing and I've wanted to try writing rap for some time, but before I found this series, I had no idea how to go about it. Now I at least have an idea about how to attempt it and not completely embarrass myself when I show my friends my attempts.

[@KurtGaming1]

Love this, I don't rap but something about the way you rap and teach makes me want to! Separate note, do you know of the youtuber Yungtown and his raps? I'm curious what you think of his lyrical structures and if it'd be possible for you to do some kind of critical analysis of him in the future? Only if you want to of course!

[@Mat4yo]

Thank you! Try out rapping just once at least haha XD I do know of Yungtown, I believe he has worked with many of my colleagues before. Maybe I can feature him and other VG rappers one day!

[@yvung_lunar2430]

Perfect, I've always been tripping and struggling with raps but I just found the perfect placr

[@chrisrodrigues8318]

It's crazy how much of this I know without even knowing I know shit trippy bro

[@jordanprince5818]

Some of these KZbin videos you gotta be a rocket surgeon

[@Ooblix]

This is the kind of video Jake Gyllenhaal's character from Nightcrawler watches every morning

[@cuvvychase3626]

This video was insanely helpful!!!💯

[@Mat4yo]

Awesome!

[@ogpche9178]

This video is incredible, had to subscribe

[@brianmchaney7473]

11:49 Need an umbrella, Mat? You just threw *all* the shade. :P

[@Mat4yo]

Gonna need an awning for that much shade

[@yojumba]

This video is god tier! Thx 🙏

[@chrissh.1147]

Finally somebody who knows what he's talking about I've been searching forever for someone to break down the different types of forms of writing with the highs and low syllables I used to have a book called the art of versification you answered A lot of my question how do you implement this to A beaton the instrumental due you make the stressed syllables land on the kick drum or the snare for example if it's iambic due you land the stress syllableI of a Iambic form on what beat of the instrument snare or kick drum how do you anchor this formula with an instrumental bar music etc. thank you

[@anzarraps]

he didn't talk about this in this video but you can change the stressed syllables in a word to fit the beat if needed, and i suggest not being super analytical about this while you're writing - put the stressed syllable on top of the beat though

[@kylespevak6781]

I'm doing this tonight.

[@Mat4yo]

cool! have fun!

[@kylespevak6781]

It's up! I couldn't think of what to put for the visual, so it's just random junk on my computer.

[@thisleftylefty]

Every time I watch this I can't help but think you're holding a vape, but it's just your phone.

[@xandroyoung5525]

Im trying the "unstressed flow" cause its so flexible in any way and sounds fresh

[@TheCarterSauce]

yes! thanks Matteo!

[@Mat4yo]

no prob!

[@TheCarterSauce]

Mat4yo would you be up for a collab?

[@Mat4yo]

I'm open to ideas!

[@TheCarterSauce]

Mat4yo well i've been wanting to work on a Bendy and the Ink Machine (shorter) rap, and I was thinking of making a Mario Oddysey song as well, either sound appealing to you?

[@TheCarterSauce]

email is [e-mail] if you can get back with me

[@RelativePerspective.]

brooo this is really informative, thanks man x

[@riyeltv]

Amazing video and so much useful information , thanks

[@bobrhubarbtv591]

HELL YES!!! I've been waiting for this

[@Mat4yo]

woot woot!

[@Kaloroki]

Mat4yo how do you feel about vocal chops adding to the length of the bar. I see this common in some genres of rap where they chop the first syllable of the bar, personally I like it adding some flair aesthetic flair instead of it having any meaning in itself.

[@specialk864]

I literally cannot write a single solitary coherent line to ANY beat at all. only way I can stay on ANY beat is by rappin random words that have nothin to do w anything. I don’t know what happened, but rap music has caused me to lose multiple jobs, ruin multiple relationships, lose damn near all of my friends, and have multiple family members give up on me amountin to anything in life. I literally have nothin to show for anything other than a few songs of mine and a few feature verses of mine, from 3-4 years ago. doin rap music used to be fun, but now it’s a cripplin unproductive waste of time.

[@breaks3085]

Very good Video.. this guy is the best with his tutorials on rappin.. I watched other tutorials & their not half as good... I rap myself an knew all these skills already but this guy has sharpened my skills even more.. one thing though is a fan that liked my music said he liked my voice an cadence.. but i just need to know if cadence is your Flow pattern or the rise & fall of your vocal tone ?

[@colecoward6720]

I want to see a rap in Dactylic Hexameter like the Aeneid, plus, it'd give me a reason to work on scansion to make sure it's right, and so I can practice for AP Latin

[@Mat4yo]

You should do that for extra credit!

[@colecoward6720]

Mat4yo Only one problem with that... I can't rap, and not for lack of trying, plus I couldn't compete with all the other Latin rappers in my class

[@Ace22]

I wish I had money for Chiseler's school because I have an insane idea for a rap battle. A pterodactyl using only dactyl rhymes. The problem is I don't quite understand how to do a dactyl. See I have great ideas the problem is learning and implementing them.

[@Mat4yo]

I hope this helps at least! Dont give up your ideas. I explain dactyl in this video!

[@professortrickroom3777]

In a Dactyl, the first syllable is stresed, and the second is not.

[@professortrickroom3777]

This is going to help on my next rap! Thanks!

[@Mat4yo]

glad to hear!

[@professortrickroom3777]

When I record my raps, I record only a certain number of bars at a time. If I do not adhere to the meter, I delete the recording part I messed up on and start recording that set of bars from scratch. I cannot listen to the rap and record my voice simultaneously, since I have the noob trap movie maker.

[@temitayoomotoshon3148]

Thanks broh, i just don't know how to thank you,you just save and made my carrier

[@Danishmastery]

Oh heeell yeah, subscribed!

[@Anuragsingh-cv1ub]

am from India ..... I like the way u describe it .......great bro tnx for that

[@yukichancinnamonroll]

6:51 LMAO this makes so much sense now.

[@lordwelb4161]

You are the best bro

[@MrFirewassim]

i kinda expected you to upload the "5 erbs i would've made differently" today

[@Mat4yo]

I have to move away from ERB or my channel won't ever be anything other than that

[@misterneckbreaker88]

look for some drum n bass and the kick is guide lines to the pace of how fast you should be spitting and guide lines where the rhyme word should be.

[@JunyL]

Thanks for this much needed info

[@jonasthrane9431]

Very helpful. Thank you.

[@Mat4yo]

of course!

[@riktascale4]

This is indept.

[@cosmicjenny4508]

Nice video! There's this underground rapper called Splytsecond. He is a fast rapper, and has *immaculate* clarity, great flow, and insanely clever lyrics. When I say fast, I mean _fast-fast..._

[@Mat4yo]

I'll check him out!

[@johnphillipamato]

Why would anyone thumbs down this video!? Ligit info!

[@nocap.mushrooms]

Hype range, like crescendo?

[@GeekZone210]

I feel Mat should react to fan's rap songs

[@Бугши-ж9п]

Dear Matteo, Happy Birthday to you

[@brendancartin9525]

You kept referring to the common modern mumble rappers without calling them out. Why not just call them out? No one in this comment section would have been offended

[@Mat4yo]

Because I don't care to know what their names are lol but off the dome its Lil Uzi, Fetty Wap, Future... not like I have anything against the guys, just their work

[@cosmicjenny4508]

+Mat4yo You have enough potential to knock Future into tomorrow. ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

[@Mat4yo]

we got a lyricist over here

[@brendancartin9525]

Mat4yo and a TelePrompTer

[@ashvandal5697]

I literally cannot pronounce the word “diddily” even 5 times in slow succession without slurring AND tripping over my tongue. And my mouth actually forces me to slow down. Like I can say the first word fast and it just keep getting slower and slower each successive repetition until I eventually just stop being able to say the word at all somewhere around the 5-8 time.

[@ferrariblack2867]

"Question" Is it possible for someone who has no rhythm nor Melody, but is an amazing writer become an awesome rap artist?

[@shalyfemusic]

What do you think

[@FridgeWidSnoo]

this is kodaks arch nemesis

[@Arcade90053]

This guy is gooood

[@matshbocks]

"A word that I would have to teach you."

[@asha_dasha]

Another great tutorial as always, Matt. Just a question, you mentioned double time in your video, did you have any guidelines or advice concerning transitioning from normal time to double time? or conversely, to half time?

[@Mat4yo]

just transition where the beat transitions if you cant get it to work... you should have motivation for changing time - a change in mood for the beat, whether its added synth or removed synth etc., is a good opportunity

[@asha_dasha]

Mat4yo Cheers Mat, I'll keep that in mind. I look forward to your album!

[@Dozjah]

Do you give private lessons?

[@magiqlo1065]

Lyrically I am god but this really helped me understand pronunciations

[@Nicksuavemusic]

Good content keep it going

[@EclipseCeLL]

I have to disagree with 17:58 , because of flows like that, look no further than Andre 3000's legendary verse on Aquemini My mind warps and bends, floats the wind, count to ten Meet the twin-André Ben, welcome to the lion's den Original skin, many men comprehend I extend my-self so you go out and tell a friend Sin all depends on what you believin' in Faith is what you make it-that's the hardest shit since MC Ren Alien can blend right on in with your kin Look again 'cause I swear I spot one every now and then It's happening again, wish I could tell you when André, this is André, y'all are just gon' have to make amends

[@daltonc690]

How do you do words that are one syllable? Can they be stressed or unstressed depending on how you want it?

How to Busta Rhyme like in 'Look At Me Now'

[@antoniohernandez1997]

I have a question about flow. How do I connect 2 couplets or quatrains that were written separately? Said alone they flow perfectly but when I try to rap one after the other the second couplet/quatrain goes off beat. Too long. My lyrics *are not* written in paragraph form

[@richardadrianhenderson4556]

That beat though

[@shrill_pkm]

I don't know if I have what it takes

[@Alvaro-uy9vw]

I don't rap but these videos are fucking cool!!!

[@Mat4yo]

that's the spirit!

[@zyro_gold]

Cool bro

[@cosmicjenny4508]

I, personally, liked Mac Lethal's "White Kid Raps Fast!" a bit better than Watsky's... Maybe it's just that I'm biased toward faster rap, I don't know.

[@Mat4yo]

interesting
