Game Changer for Musicians - LEARN TO FREESTYLE!
MUSICIANS: Learn to freestyle, it’s a game changer!
It doesn’t matter if you’re a producer, singer, rapper, guitarist, or even all the above. If you can’t create great NEW content on the spot the #music industry will find a way to leave you behind. Opportunity moves quickly and there are so many amazing #musicians out there competing for that coveted seat on stage or in the studio with superstar artists or music executives. Freestyling can set you apart.
If you’re a guitarist, own the ability create a new riff on the spot. Be open to suggestion on direction and work on the fly. If your a singer, grow your ability to make up simple and catchy lyrics with great melodies for awesome hooks. If you’re a rapper, you better believe you need to be able to seize any opportunity to display your art. Freestyling also helps with collaboration between artists, something that every musician needs to be good at.
I also truly believe that #freestyling makes you smarter overall and better at expressing yourself in general. It’s a simple skill that surprisingly few people focus on. If you can create great music, your next goal should be creating great music extremely quickly, or on the spot! Why do you think artists are releasing so much music these days? It’s because they have grown their ability to create it on the spot! Did you know that Drake has released 110 singles so far in his career? It’s because he can freestyle! Why do you think Tupac was releasing music years after his death? It’s because he could freestyle and got in the studio non stop!
For every hip hop success story there are thousands of good #artists who aren’t able to make their dream happen. As a musician you need to work your ass off to put yourself in the right situations, and when you find that situation you need to be able to rise to the occasion and lay down a memorable performance! When you get that chance on stage or in the studio be ready to blow the room away.
How can you set yourself apart? LEARN TO FREESTYLE!
Look at how much people love this shit! Mos Def is blowing their minds with a freestyle! And you can tell how much fun he is having. That's what music is about. If you learn to be more creative on the spot you'll be ready to rise to any occasion. You'll be as happy as I am in the picture below, just feelin good about life and creating new music!
