What's the key to making setups?

[PrincessClaire]

Any tips on how to lay down some dope set-ups followed by a boombastic punchline? please!

[Indonesia]

become smart enough not to use "boombastic"

[Obey]

Relevance.

[Dono]

The key? Joining a crew that's run by me instead of @Punk.



Anyway, I know this doesn't help right now but in the next week or so I should have an in depth video up at least on how to write punchlines. Probably setups later. So keep an eye out if you're still having troubles in a bit.

Don't use an axe scent.. speak very fluent instead.. or we'll smell it from a mile away & you won't be the sharpest tool in the shed...

@Obey said what i was about to.. but he was missing a "." at the end

Come up with the rhymes first then the set up...so for example if you know cat & bat rhyme...Fill up the margin with a set up until you reach the word Cat, do the same thing on the next line with Bat

Blah blah blah i dont fuck with this cat/
Blah blah blah blah blah blah like a bat/

[Execute]

First, come up with a phrase, syan "GRAMMAR SCHOOLS" now find another multi like it, say.."MANNER'S TOO", Now join them up like --

This Guy? Shit's Pants & Ain't Got No MANNERS TOO /
Ya'll See Him Fail And Get Marked In GRAMMAR SCHOOLS/

That's how it works, but be sure to get the multies down first.

Or instead of joining Donos weakness you could get with the heavyweights if you play your cards right .. Like obey said relevance.. You wanna create a metaphor or reference that relates to your multie in your punchline or vice versa.. Theres more to it though but thats all you get for now..
