Rap lyrics
Rap is poetry spoken in time with the beat.
Before you write your lyrics, make sure that you have a good backing track beat created on 'Incredibox', as it will help you remember the rhythm of your lyrics.
Unlike essays, rap lyrics are based on colloquial language-slang and use poetic techniques such as:
