I just...

[sweetpea316]

Heh, I just wrote a song. Like... a rap song. Seriously. Is it possible for goofy white girls to rap?

[beatty07]

rap away! If anyone says you can't, you send them to me. I'll take care of business.

[TheSecond]

Sure, Why not?

We need more people to to take up the Cross with a mic.

Good luck, I'm sure you'll get 'nuff support.

GodBless,

I think there is a serious lack of goofy white girl rap in this world...

[saintwannab7]

I'm a goofy white girl, but I lack writing or rapping abilities. But, go for it!

We need a goofy white girl rapper on the phatmass crew, as we only have goofy boy rappers right now.

I'm a goofy white girl I write but I can't rap! Well, never tried, but go for it!!

[sweetpea316]

Thanks guys! Anyone know of a cheap and easy way to record it? Cause right now, it's just on paper and in my head.

[beatty07]

what do you mean by cheap? and what are your goals for adding beats/instruments or whatever?

You have just opened a serious can-o-worms goofy white rapper girl!

[sweetpea316]

Yeah... I have no idea where to start. I am a newbie. Any suggestions about [i]anything[/i] would be awesome.

Hmm.

Okay, let me see what I can find. (A Mac or something with Linux would be so much easier!)

[philothea]

To start, you'll need a microphone. I don't think whatever built-in mic the Dell (if any) has will be adequate.

You can download [url="http://audacity.sourceforge.net/"]Audacity[/url], which is a free audio editor. You can import .wav and .mp3 files (other formats too), add your own tracks, add effects, and export it all to a variety of formats.

I am not sure where you would get music from, beyond swiping other people's songs. There may be public domain beats around...? I don't recall Audacity having anything built in, but I haven't done a whole lot with it.

Perhaps some of the actual professionals around here (*prod*, *prod*) will speak up.

[sweetpea316]

Haha.... thank you!
