Tupac Shakur famously described rap and hip-hop as a form of rhythmic journalism and street poetry. He highlighted that rapping essentially turns the voice into an additional percussion instrument that drives the emotion and message of the song.
Think of rap as using your voice like a drum to spit fast, rhyming poetry over a beat so you can share your story.
