I created this forum for anyone who wants to keep growing in knowledge of the Hip Hop culture. Here you can get tips on how to be a better MC,Poet, Producer, etc. Everyone is welcome to ask questions, provide answers or post some helpful tips for others to learn from.
The official motto for this thread is the following quote from dead.prez:
"Each one, teach all"

such language is not needed in my class room...
My best advice for anyone who wants to be an emcee or breaker or dj or graff or what ever...get in touch with othewr heads like yourself and attack...dont stop...freestyle all day with like ten emcees...break every chance you get bomb the bathroom wall to hell...and you djs out there practice hit the tables...and for gods sake lets not use mommys favorite record when we are learning new scratching techniques...
being an emcee i have the experience to help other emcees the most...if you want to step your rhyme game up...read...get in front of mirrors...freestyle...even if it sucks just keep going...get other emcees to freestyle with ya...do not wrtie(least not at this point)...hit up open mics once your ready...win some battles...lose some battles(you get ten times better after a loss)...

When that class is done, Professor Olie's How To Make A Good Album Cover Art Class will take place. The music while making your Picassos will be EPMD songs, as a duo or solo.

He is a master at it but I cant understand his lectures....he snarls after spitting two bars.
