WEEK 10 BEAT CHOICE Many rappers get stuck in a rut because they aren't actually challenging themselves with beats. Think about it - if you built houses, and always used the same bad materials, your houses would be garbage even if you did a good job. This is the same principle when it comes to choosing and using beats. You need good materials to make good songs. A beat is just one of the "materials" you use to create a song.
What's more, using the same kinds of beats (even if they are good) means you'll end up making the same song over and over and over again. If it didn't pop off the first time, remaking different variations that sound kind of like it ALSO will not work in terms of catching on or getting you positive attention for your music.
You'll need to challenge yourself by purposefully choosing different styles of beats, sounds, producers, and styles to keep yourself fresh. Otherwise, you could fall into lazy rap habits, like repeating the same bars, talking about the same stuff, and using cliches. By choosing a different, unfamiliar kind of beat, you're keeping yourself on your toes - mentally. This is often when the best creative work comes out, because you're too distracted to get in your own way.

WEEK 11 RAP FLOW Having a smooth flow is one of the most desired skills for rappers. Everyone wants to sound confident with a perfect delivery - and have people envious of their rap flow.
This is something that takes dedicated practice, but can be helped along with exercises.
Flow is not some natural thing that some people have and some people don't. Smooth flowing rappers have just practiced a lot before you hear them. You need to do the same.
