I recently wrote a rap about the Greasy Knots, just for kicks. I should be done recording it by tomorrow (today, if you wanna get technical), so expect a listening post link in the next coupla days!

[U]Greasy Rap[/U]

A-B-C-D-E-F-Greasy
Knots in the house gonna rock it so sweetly
hands in the air when the boys on stage
and it’s word to your mama like words on the page
of the lyrics sheet
that the boys done write
fly poetry
and it holds real tight
Yeah the boys be riffin’ like nobody’s bizness
Oh Greasy Knots you’re the top of the it-list

You could be Greasy, guh-reasy like me
You could be Greasy, guh-reasy like me
You could be Greasy, guh-reasy like me
You could be Greasy, guh-reasy like me

All the ladies be screamin’ when the show kicks off
and they go to bed dreamin’ ‘bout the Greasy Knots
and they still be sleepin’ when they get off. Uh.
With the guitar wailin’ like "la dee la"
and their jeans so ripped
and the drums so steady
and the bass so flippant
and the singer so sweaty
these Knotty boys are the fat of the land
and they rock more Greasy than last night’s ham

You could be Greasy, guh-reasy like me
You could be Greasy, guh-reasy like me
You could be Greasy, guh-reasy like me
You could be Greasy, guh-reasy like me
You could be Greasy, guh-reasy like me
You could be Greasy, guh-reasy like me
You could be Greasy, guh-reasy like me
You could be Greasy, guh-reasy like me

are you gonna do it all tag team like, like the beastie boys? thats them right? Anyway, it kinda sounds like that kinda rap. There are a couple lines that are shaky, the line with riffin in it, mostly cause riff'n has such a strong natural cadence and to say it with the beat I am picking up goes against that cadence. It woks though, just gotta say it fast and almost condense it into a single beat.
Second verse doesn;t seem to flow as nicely until the end bu it still works. Good job. I think you should do it like a tag team rap cause otherwise it will not only be difficult for one singer to keep up the pace of the beat but yu get get some cool effects with multiple "rappers". One say a line the next says a line then they all say a line together, very beastie boys-ish. If you did this with lines 5-8 in the second verse it would work really well. three ppl, each say 5, 6, 7, then you all say 8. Hope that makes sense.

Anyway, it's pretty good I'd say. Just get real creative with how you preform it. Maybe nothing I suggested would work with the rhythm you have in mind, in which case never mind. :P But its good. for rap written for a rock group.


edit:
Alright never mind, I just heard the recording cause I didn't see it before. It sounds pretty good, I had it in my head as being very fast paced so ignore evrything said previously. :)
