Creating Rhythmic, Vocal Drum Flows To Beats

Skatting + Freestyling For Natural Delivery

• Freestyle for melodies across the beat a few times to find natural patterns your ears will like.
• Choose the best voice you had in the flow. Do high, medium and low flow voice types.
• Determine which voice types didn’t work.
• Flow to the kicks and snares in the beat.
• Flow to the melody of the beat that was created.
• Choose the best flows you liked that created the best rhythm for that actual beat and vibe.
• Show them where your vocals are hitting on the beat in pro-tools and how those created the best flows and vibe for the beat.
• Rewrite lyrics to those flow patterns by matching syllables

Choose Your Speed Of Rhythm To Flow To The Beat

• Slow (Breath pacing)
• Mid Speed (Less breath pacing)
• Double Speed/Double Speed Rap (Rarely breathing unless for dramatic effect)

Usually, it’s a combination to entertain the listener but one of these flow types will be your primary for the song. Don’t worry! Eventually you will automatically be able to find flows on a majority of beats you get on.
