I found this site at a young(er) age, when my parents grounded me a lot, so I had plenty of free time to bullshit around online. Netcees was a definite outlet for both my creativity and adolescent angst (lollmao).

Thing is I don't write much anymore, and when I do I'm like ehhh kinda wack. It worked better when I didn't think about it.

But what are some things you guys do to maintain creative... discipline I guess..?

uh-oh

i dont write

but as far as making beats and being creative in general im 100 percent reliant on boredom.

well maybe 90 percent. sometimes in the morning i get the itch, but only when i know i have nothing going on. so its more of a ok my mindset is right, i want to GO IN. i can make some shit that is genius at this moment, i'm connected with the spirits type shit

of course it almost always ends in failure either way

but word i have to have nothing else at all to do. i'd rather play a video game i beat 10 years ago. i'd rather just wack off. i'd rather just go to the store. etc.

so word a good mixture of boredom and self delusion of your own greatness

godspeed

Lol uh oh da God.


Just write, man. Fuck what anyone else says or thinks. Write what you feel and you can't go wrong.

i produce my best material in the twilight hours on the edge of consciousness in my head and it disappears as soon as i try to record it.

nothing i actually pen is as good.

it's futile. don't bother.

I'm just posting here for posperity.

Young Fig was the pound for pound Lol champ for those in the know for like 4 months.

Best of luck writing(?) things.

After over a year of not writing at all, I just wrote the smoothest 16 bars I've ever written.
For me, I can't force it... something has to happen to prompt an emotional response which then gets transferred into writing.

I listen to the kind of rap that inspires me to write better.
Like if I wanted to write complex bars I'd listen to Canibus. Or if I Wana write chopper lines I'd listen to King ISO and Tech 9. Listening to something to vibe with will get ur creative juices going again. And finding some dope beats also

Do you want to maintain ‘creativity’, or only think that perhaps you ‘should?’ Because if you’ve just been busy or not into writing for a while, the easiest way is to start doing the things that made you want to write and make you think about writing now. Is it listening to certain music? That’s usually what I use. It helps me remember what it is I appreciate about rhymes.

Its like I stall my self out trying to "perfect" the thing I'm writing. Lately I just freestyle in recording sessions, and it's cool because I don't think twice about what I'm doing.
Genocide hey guy Witty hey guy PancakeBrah ew

Well you sucked before dude, maybe your ego at the time had you on some other level and you're just noticing now that your wack because you've been away for a bit? I'd say just don't bother writing again.

Cause Amen drops fire bars.

Oh let me guess you used to right? And beat tom, dick and harry? All at the same time, with no shoes on in the snow both ways up hill...

I mean you don't battle or write right now and from what I've gathered in a while. So why attack this dude, like your ready to prove your better?

Not trying to start an argument, just saying why not drop some advice and help out at least. Ghost dude doing the same I see but at least that dudes funny, tho and seems to just troll for fun. You being a straight up dick...

Amen

Nope, last I remember you were the weird dark demonic homosexual persona, tho.

Wrote horrorcore verses about sucking dick and getting your brown eye stretched out.
Incredible fall back. Your wack bro. Not reading that.

Yeah but I just started writing/battling and have never claimed to be good or better than anyone, you have. Also why I didn't offer any advice myself.

Also the reason why I have never posted a thread like this asking for advice, just can't cause Amen typa guy would just come and be a dick, then you gotta decide whether you want to come back at him and in which way. (I.e. your fall back comment) Again I get other members may do this but most of them that do provide a certain type of entertainment here, laughter. Again you just being a dick.
