Sweat the Technique
On the heels of Kendrick Lamar’s Pulitzer Prize, as the world begins to recognize the creative side of Hip-Hop, comes a writing guide from a musician and "The greatest MC of all time," Rakim. The musician and Hip Hop legend—hailed as “the greatest MC of all time” and compared to Thelonious Monk—reimagines the writing handbook in this memoir and guide that incorporates the soulful genius, confidence, and creativity of a master artist.

Summary of Rakim's Sweat the Technique
Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Sample Book Insights: #1 I wanted to teach other rappers how to rhyme, so I wrote a song called How to Emcee in 2009. It explained how to mix words, and it had a sarcastic flow. I was having fun with the syllables. #2 I consider wordplay to be playing drums with words. I will take multi-syllable words and place them in a certain order to make them sound different, or I will move words up a bit to make them sound different. #3 My mother, who was a trained opera singer, would sing jazz, RB, and everything in between. She made music seem important. I remember her crying when certain songs came on, and I thought, Some songs can shake people to their soul. #4 I had a brother, Stevie, who was seven years older than me. He was into music, and he shared a room with me. I was always trying to be like him, and he helped me learn how to play the sax.

That’s a damn shame, because few outside the game know about the true creative forces behind influential masterpieces like PE’s It Takes a Nation of Millions. . ., De La’s 3 Feet High and Rising, and Wu-Tang’s Enter the Wu-Tang (36 Chambers). A longtime scribe for the hip-hop nation, Brian C...
