Dubcnn Presents: "How To Rap" Book Giveaway - By : Rud - June 20, 2010



As we told you back in January of this year - it has been 5 years since Paul Edwards first contacted Dubcnn with the idea he had to write a book focusing on the "Art & Science of the Hip-Hop MC" and asking for help in speaking to artists themselves to get their input. Years later and with more interviews than countless journalists will ever manage to secure Paul has finally released his epic read.

"How to Rap: The Art and Science of the Hip-Hop MC" is available now and was compiled from interviews with over 100 MCs.

Highlights include – Shock G describing working with 2Pac and his writing processes, RBX on ghostwriting for Dr. Dre, Lady of Rage explaining how she comes up with flows and content, B-Real recalling how he came up with Cypress Hill’s biggest hits, Crooked I on writing lyrics down and using tape recorders, DJ Quik discussing being both an MC and a produce, E-40 on coming up with slang and rhythms and much more.

Other West Coast artists and groups interviewed include Souls of Mischief, The Pharcyde, Black Eyed Peas, Dilated Peoples, Tha Alkaholiks, Jurassic 5, Paris, Del the Funky Homosapien, Yukmouth, Glasses Malone Guerilla Black, Latyrx, MURS, Freestyle Fellowship, Omar Cruz, Pigeon John, Planet Asia, Spider Loc, The Federation, People Under the Stairs, and Zion I

Dubcnn has teamed up with Paul Edwards to give readers the chance to win 3 copies of the "How to Rap: The Art and Science of the Hip-Hop MC" book by simply following the link below and sending the details requested to the contest email address. Winners will be selected at random when the contest closes on July 5th.

is it a US-only thing?
See these fans can't resist the rush,
they Wu-Tang for life
Scarred for life,
they can't forget the cuts

Word, I bought this book a while back - easily the best Hip-Hop book I've read, because it has so much input from so many great MCs
