Hey hey!
So I am trying to start a freestyle rapping improv team here in NY. I am looking for people who are:
- strong and dedicated improvisers, ideally past 401 at the UCB, or comparable level at PIT or Magnet (pardon my ignorance)
- people who can freestyle OR people who are willing to practice freestyling and in the meantime don't mind throwing themselves in front of people and setting their pride aside and having a blast at trying to freestyle
- people who can beat box (I know we all can't be Shockwave though
- a coach who would be willing to work with a group like this. Note: the coach does not have freestyle themselves, but a coach with a love and appreciation of hip-hop would be awesome
I have ideas for how the form would be structured, fairly similar to "The Beat Box" out of Chicago. If you aren't familiar with them, think "I Eat Pandas" or "Baby Wants Candy" or a montage with rap battles.
I work at Fordham University so I can get free rehearsal space for the group, so the only money needed would be for a coach. Please contact me if you are interested in being a part of this new and exciting group!!! Either email me at JTRobo (at) gmail (dot) com OR PM me. Thanks!!
