A simple exercise to practice rapping "behind the beat"!
An additional demo of adding swing to the mix.
The best rappers intuitively find and lock into a rhythmic "pocket" positioned ever so slightly behind the kick and snare hits, creating a groove that is sometimes more felt than heard.
If you're not used to it listening for it, you may not notice a difference. This is good! The best pockets are felt more than heard. Give it a go!

Changing the emphasis pattern of your syllables whilst rapping in triplets is a good way to switch them up. It creates groove patterns that can change the meter from simple to compound - this is otherwise known as a "hemiola"

Or is my piano out of tune /am I just singing flat #musictheory #theorytok #musictheorytok @Charlie Puth #perfectpitch #halfsharp @Jacob Collier #songwriting #songwriters @rebeccamccartneymusic
A triplet is when a beat/measure is even subdivided into three. But they can be made to sound radically different depending on where you place emphasis.
Experiment with different emphasis points and check out how they turn into various, recognisable rap flows.
